EURO 2012: Day 3 Matchday thread

[MCC]

The Irish have finished their warmups consisting of 3 Guiness, a couple Whiskys each and are now match fit and raring to go.

Well it will be interesting to see the contrast and the wankathon that will go on with Welbeck and Carroll and Rooney.

they play for england though, nothing surprising when (not if) it happens

ESPN is obsessing over Balotelli. They've run about 3 segments on him since the match ended.

The ginger yank pundit is being a prick, trying to get Rossi to say he wouldn't want to play with Mario.

Alexi Lalas is a moaning, no-talent twat who sits there whining about players with 1000 times his talent not behaving the way his toady ass would.

If he was laying in the street with two broken legs and vehicles bearing down on him, I would take the time to piss on his face because he deserves to go out with some dude pissing on his face.

Ballack got him back telling Rossi he made the right choice playing with Italy rather than USA because Italy could actually win something.

Lalas just sat there silent lol

Beside that pass Silva wasn't good at all. Spain played better and bit faster when he was subbed

Can't disagree more. When he was subbed they lost their cutting edge and struggled to make chances beyond long shots.

100 persons, 100 views :)

Fixed that for you.

Beside that goal, Cesc didn't do much. He should've been off b4 Silva, Torres on b4 Navas to give them focus, with Navas on afterward to give yet another player to set up a striker. Silva could have done just as well, but who knows with Del Bosque.

Edited b/c I had a brain fart, people lol

I really hope Ireland win. I have nothing against Croatia or any of its players, I've just tipped Ireland to be the surprise package of the tournament.

halfway happy atm draw in first game good for us (irish) just beat croat's now and a good days football.

I am surprised that no club hasn't taken a gamble on Darijo Srna. A very good Right Back IMHO. Croatia will be too strong for the Irish though.

I'm torn. Anything that hits Lalas in the junk I'm for but I hate Rossi for making that choice.

Missed that! Lalas has been fail today. Called Silva Villa- haven't heard that in a while.

 

[Pigeonho]

Yep, want Ireland to do well too. Fans not expecting much, fans out for the craic, a non-arrogant press and all in all everything the England team isn't.
