Just because you don't like his view on England thread, you call him retard here on Euro thread? It's not like he's 100% wrong on his assessment no matter how bias it sounds to certain people.

i use to read this everywhere -> "england play much better without rooney against sweden"
in fact, right after the below par milner was sub out by walcott, walcott equalize and then supply the assist to welbeck to score, so england play much better without who ? |

Its true Roy has to unshackle England's defense or rope a dope to come from behind. Sweden's two goals were scrappy but I believed not the direct result or errors of Milner. Walcott was deservedly the MOTM.
Overall the match was played without Rooney. |

Why this person CityBluePrint is talking about rooney all the time.
Talk about balotelli better as he's going to play in euro finals. This post has been edited by antoniov: Jun 29 2012, 11:43 PM |

Buffon: England suffer from Prem
England 'struggle to have players from your own country playing in the top league' QUOTE  Italy captain Gianluigi Buffon has claimed the English Premier League is "no longer very faithful'' to the national team after they failed once again to pass the quarter-final stage. Italy beat England on penalties and now prepare to face Spain in the Euro 2012 final in Kiev on Sunday and Buffon, who is looking to add another major international tournament to the World Cup in won in 2006, feels the answer lies in the Premier League's desire to attract the best players in the world. The veteran goalkeeper is sure that the Premier League is the best in terms of quality, but does not feel that is the best way forward for the national side. "Having a competitive league doesn't necessarily mean having competitive players,'' he said. "For a number of years now, the English league has had the best football and is the best league in terms of quality. "The money that's in the game means they can go and buy anyone from all over Europe or the world. This can happen in Spain and Italy as well as England but the league in England is no longer very faithful to what the national side needs. "With this footballing globalisation, it's very difficult. You struggle to have players from your own country playing in the top league.'' England have now gone out of six competitions on penalties, including three at the quarter-final stage. Yet Buffon does not write the Three Lions off completely. "The England national side has its own strengths and they're a lot more physical than other sides,'' he added. "But England aren't very lucky. They've lost on penalties in the last five or six times, so the margins between winning and losing are very thin indeed.'' |

One never knows whether Lahm's goal against Greece could have been prevented. The likelihood of it been prevented is very high in my estimation. Given that a lot of shots are being blocked by 'parked buses' teams in this Euros.
If you reviewed it again you will see the Slovenia referee (inadvertently or not) provided a 'pick' (against two converging Greek players) for Lahm to strike. Referees are known to influence matches subtly by interposing themselves or getting themselves in the line of play i.e taking sides. Just imagine if Greece had advanced, this Euro's will have lost its glamour, subsequent attendances will be down, providing the sponsors less 'benefits'. The Greeks are the poor cousins of Europe just like the Irish, Croatia etc... |

guys, do you realize, since euro divided to group stage & knockout stage, both finalist come from different group & same group alternately
1984 - france (group A) vs spain (group B) 1988 - netherlands vs soviet (both from group B) 1992 - denmark (group A) vs germany (group B) 1996 - germany vs czech republic (both from group C) 2000 - france (group D) vs italy (group B) 2004 - greece vs portugal (both from group A) 2008 - spain (group D) vs germany (group B) 2012 - italy vs spain (both from group C) and each tournament both finaliist from same group, they met each other in first game. in 1988 euro 1988 in 1996 euro 1996 group c in 2004 euro 2004 group a in 2012 euro 2012 group c maybe in 2020 we can predict both finalist after first game of the group stage This post has been edited by effhedge: Jul 1 2012, 06:10 PM |
