    Oh give over, some of the bitter comments on German football sites since we beat them top all of that. Anyway regarding tonight's game, who cares ?
    We'll probably balls it up as usual but tomorrows game is all I'm thinking about.

    Pizza recipe ?

    Nice to see the VW car bringing the match ball out ensuring that the Germans along with the Ref are making the semi finals :D

    Doesn't look like 60k @ Wembley & why are UEFA using the same stadium 3 days out of 6 ?

    Extra Pepperoni & Anchovies please !

    Nice to hear the English out singing the Spanish & Italians at Wembley then getting booed .

    Been impressed by the Spanish so far , if the opposition hasn't got the ball , they ain't gonna score .

    Spain looking good. Busquets is so good on the ball. England would love a player like that

    What, one of the best holding midfielders ever? You reckon?

    Would quite fancy a Messi aswell as it goes.

    The Spanish keep the ball so well but **** me they are dull to watch at times.

    Id rather us play Italy (if we get to the final). Stylistically I think they suit us better

    If a player goes down like he's been shot by a jap sniper but ref doesn't think it's a foul, why doesn't he card them?

    Such a non event so far needs a goal.

    Spain look impressive. Think they’ve been the better side so far.

    Spain looked better most of that first half, but Italy looked more promising towards the end there.

    Gotta be goals this second half.

    I agree. Been decent enough with very little happening.

    I agree for the most part, but I think it's to avoid the rare possibility they've torn something innocuously and then the ref looks an arsehole for giving them a simulation booking.

    Spain have played well. No finisher as usual though.

    Pundits wanking themselves silly over Busquets but he's actually given it away in dangerous areas two or three times and put Italy on the attack.

    Reckon Mancini will make a change at HT and Italy will grind out the win.
