  1. My team of the tournament (with subs 'cause I can't not mention them) : Donnarummaa Christiansen - Bonucci - Chiellini Maehle - Jorginho - Hojbjerg - Spinazzola Sterling - Pedri Ronaldo Subs: Schmeichel, Trippier, Shaw, Phillips, Kjaer, Damsgaard, Schick, Pogba, Forsberg, Dolberg, Zubar, Modric... [I need to stop]
  2. I'm not sure we have a "Capitalistic ethic", but I'm not clever enough to rebut your point. ? I also find it insulting that we need an "over-arching narrative" like Christianity to provide us with a moral framework. This is too much of Nietzche's Slave Morality -- which Christianity championed -- it's just taken a more secular, marxist form today.
  3. Our Euro 2020 Prediction League Champion! @Tannochsidebear
  4. Is that big Georgio now won both World Cup and Euros? Edit: No.
  5. I don't dislike Southgate, either. He deserves tremendous credit for the job he has done.
  6. I think Lineker is crying.
  7. I feel for Saka.
  8. I wanted them to beat Scotland! That counts double.
  9. Lampard saying "It didn't go in for us". No shit! You created nothing.
  10. I assure you I'm not. I dislike those two. It's a point of pride. I don't think they're as good as they've been suggesting. I'm not getting off from my particularly high horse.
  11. I was surprised Maguire stepped up? Maybe they didn't have the volunteers.
  12. I take credit for the change in fortunes during the penalties. I moved my remote from an askew position to perpendicular with the table.
  13. I turned it over to watch Lineker and Shearer! I'm a bad, bad man.
  14. Maybe bringing players on to take penalties is not the right move? Rushford and Sancho missed poorly.
  15. I'm sorry, but England were not good. They started well, but I really think it's because Italy started really poorly. Over the course, Italy were better.
  16. It's coming home... TO ROME!
  17. I'd much rather have the Italian 'keeper, but I'd rather have the English penalty takers...
  18. There was no press... ? Edit: This comment will bite me on the arse...
  19. Italy have been woeful.
  20. No - I've wanted them to win I the past. At this stage it's a point of pride: I don't rate their style of play, I don't think it's that good. They don't create anything. It's basically defend well, and rely on someone to create a bit of magic most of the time - or rely on a mistake. Tactically they got it spot on - as much as Italy didn't, though.
  21. I must be blind. I've seen England create nothing, with Italy creating several, albeit half, chances. England have been like this all tournament. Create bugger all, yet nick goals and defend well. At some point I'll need to concede that they're a better side than I think.
  22. This is a typical England performance: they actually create bugger all, yet nick a goal through bad defending. They started well, but I think that was down to a poor Italy.
  23. Mancini has to make changes. Italy have made a shocking start.
