Euro 2008!

If you stop and analyse their performances they scored the first goal - one was a bit dubious, the other from a corner, then they just sat back and hit the oppostion on the counter, it's not like they were camped in the opposition's half all game, quite the opposite.

I think if they concede first they'll be in trouble because their defence isn't that great really, unless they can afford to get numbers behind the ball, and even then they didn't look impregnable. Plus Domenech and Donadoni don't have a clue and they're not the forces they were 2 years ago for one reason or another (the retirement of Zidane, no big controversy to bring the Italian team together etc).

Fella what are u on about?????????????

Which goal was dubious? Why do they need to be camped in the french half?

They played yet another quality game. Better than the italian game and yet you criticise????????

I would love to see england play like that.

The first goal against Italy, where van Nistelroy was supposedly played on by an injured player who was off the pitch - how can he be considered active? Maybe it should have stood by the current laws of the game, but by common sense it shouldn't have stood.

They were only able to play their counter attacking football because they scored first - what if the other team scores first? They could do to Holland what Holland did to France and Italy and then people would be saying what - they're shit all of a sudden because they had a few goals put past them?

It's not like their defenders are the best, if they were stretched because they were chasing a goal they could very easily get torn apart themselves.

France out and they cant complain, it really aint been there tournament that's for sure....

It could of all been so different for Italy if Mutu had scored that penalty against them...

[digitalboy]

Yeh they were not themselves. Some tasty match-ups on the way though.
