EURO 2012

no lie tho, one of the better performances from Gerrard in an England jersey, at least until i fell asleep

Neither team is getting beyond the second round.

But Roo is coming back! :-)

duh duh
duh duh duh duh

Was a bit like a mediocre Premiership game

I dread to think what England-Sweden will look like

Kudos

that is a p bad display name

Ukraine: Pyatov, Gusev, Mykhalyk, Khacheridi, Selin, Yarmolenko, Tymoschuk, Konoplianka, Nazarenko, Voronin, Shevchenko. Subs: Koval, Kucher, Garmash, Aliev, Shevchuk, Rakitskiy, Butko, Goryainov.

Sweden: Isaksson, Lustig, Mellberg, Granqvist, Martin Olsson, Elm, Kallstrom, Larsson, Ibrahimovic, Toivonen, Rosenberg. Subs: Wiland, Svensson, Jonas Olsson, Antonsson, Wernbloom, Safari, Holmen, Hansson.

voronin is so so bad, oleh blokhin is literally worse than radioactive swamps of pripyat

by white-hot loathing of Alexi Lalas being

Mind you, I don't mind Macca nor Ballack but my hatred of Lalas borders on irrational. His self-assessment and my assessment of him differ by miles and he never fails to be a smug dick about stuff esp when he's clearly wring or talking out his ass. At least Wynalda's kind of funny.

no elmander no cred

Elmander ain't fit yet, no?

makes me sad to see a larsson on the team sheet but not THE Larsson.

elmander has some minor problem

no guidetti but guidetti has a terrible accent and looks like a bloater so who knows

Is Zlatan CF or #10 playmaker tonight? Or both?

#10 and supposedly it works better that way

that's what michael o

michael cox

says

Hansen not convinced by zlatan. Thought it was all about medals Alan?

Shevchenko is a nice guy though

Anyone not convinced by Zlatan hasn't been paying attention to football outside England for a decade. Oh wait.

In the fall of 2007, Ibrahimović, with the help of Nike, self-funded Zlatan Court in the streets of the city district Rosengård in his hometown Malmö: he provided a playing mat, goalposts, lighting, and a modern fence.

are they playing 2010 era sixth form faves the xx

i think they are

that modern fence in all its glory

wow Jonathan Pearce is talking a lot of bollocks, even by his bollocks-heavy standards

played the xx before the last game too. Might be a thing

OMG Love the Swedish Kit!

sashed kits are the best

peru, juventus away the other year, usa! usa! usa! the other year, some others icrc

river plate obv

city away

I had a lovely sashed Inter 1994 away and my wife ironed the collar off it :(

spain away for this tourney has half a sash

Shevchenko giving himself a breast massage there o_O

4 andriys for ukraine, 2 andreases for sweden

yeah so does russia, it looks alright but obviously not as good as a full sash

konoplyanka/khacheridi probably the biggest size difference between adjoining players

Ooh yes, lovely shirt

Blimey they're obsessed with calling Zlatan "enigmatic"

Looking frwd to seeing Yarmolenko.

Ahum. That's as camp as this thread needs to be I think.

i didn't watch the senile cunts at the beginning, did an-sen and co say anything about any of the players other than ibrahimovic and the ones who have played in england

are they playing 2010 era sixth form faves the xx

played them before the poland greece match too

it is an intro like

heh

Rosenberg was rubbish for Werder Bremen last year.

no they didn't nakh
xxp

there seemed to be a fair bit of criticism at the last world cup when they were mocking lee dixon for having heard of marek hamsik

well, that was dreadful

saw Dixon being shouted down in one of the earlier games for trying to introduce some research

I don't like it when teams w the same color scheme play each other, not cool teams

well sweden and ukraine are kind of cousins from the vikings who sailed down the rivers and established the kievan rus' (iirc?) so they maybe can agree to disagree and call it a draw

that would be fair imho

this will always be thee sash for me...
