Where was the defence? :crazy:
Suares looks like a peasant who came to town. :p
The goal was offside? :eek:
Exactly, why so much space for Suarez ? He's playing in PL, they should know him well... :crazy:Quote:

Weird...... I'm more nervous than Brown Jon Brow.....
At least I've said it remainds me of another 2-1......
Indeed Suarez made the difference, let's hope our coach Prandelli, has learned something tonight ;)
Sorry Steve......:kiss:
:love:
Remember Pino's words, it's not over yet.
haha.
Really? No way we will beat Costa Rica now sadly.
We got some bright youngsters though hopefully.
The whole is up to Italy now ! ;)
Neither will Italy........:devil:Quote:

England are still poor and actually are on for our worst ever World Cup Finals exit.
Apart from 74,78 & 94 its probably the worst sadly, but at least we tried a younger team. Maybe they will improve come Euro 2016 and World Cup 2018
:'(
I don't think that England played badly, it's just that they are toothless.
England retained 62% of the possession and completed 75% of their passes as compared with Uruguay's 55% of completed passes.
Where Uruguay won this match was by having a compact central defence and when they back pedalled, the central midfield also plugged their central area. This meant that when England did get into the last third, they were out manned.
Both of Uruguay's goals came from play which got in behind an open England back four which played flat across the pitch and was sluggish in getting back to defend. Gerrard's flick to Suarez was more of his effort (badly) to cover for a back four which failed in their basic job.
Technically it's not really that hard to diagnose but then again, being an armchair pundit from the other side of the world, I have a far easier job than the XI on the pitch.
....and I'm still on the hook. Me and my big mouth! :uhoh:Quote:

The 2006 England matches were perhaps the worst World Cup games I ever saw...
This was all Suarez though, a lesson in the art of finishing (and how to go about being in the right place to get the chance)
For the rest of this tournament I will be supporting team USA!
We controlled Suarez quite well, for most of the game - R. Hodgson :eek: :laugh:
No offence but I'm afraid the "rest" will be quite short. :devil:Quote:

Can't wait for that too mate, and I guarantee Italy will not underestimate CRC ;)
Also Italy will play with their best defense line up (juventus) Buffon included !
Surely that was 2010?Quote:

2010 was dire

Mind you Roy has a point, all he actually did was score 2 out of 2, win them the game and all but knock us out. :blackeye:
