In all honesty I don't think we did a lot wrong, we've played worse in tournament games before and won. Tactically Italy were far superior, played the game at their own pace and we were limited to the odd chance on the counter. They crafted 2 top goals and closed the game out, we were never going to do anything in possession, nowhere near enough class.
Disappointing but bring on Uruguay.

Why switch Sterling to the wide right when he was so influential in the middle?
Rooney was terrible there. Wilshere, Gerrard and Henderson had no influence. The key to the chances created in the first half was Sterling. But Woy decides to accommodate Wazza instead of telling him to do a job on the flank. Ran out of ideas in the 2nd half.
A long way to go? That depends on what happens in a couple of days.
Quite telling really that hardly any of that team plays in the CL.
Rooney. :rose:
The media need to hound him out, it's the only way.
Maybe Hodgson prefers the media hype to the evidence of his own eyes. Here we go, Rooney being discussed now. Shearer kicks off with praising him for his work rate.Quote:

Wio is pissed that "your best man" was not played centrally all night. So there you go. The unbiased professional opinion.
TH14 "kills him" Arsene got him :(
