According to Bild, Germany are going to 'rest' their front 3 (Gomez, Muller, Podolski) against Greece! Top trolling if true but no way do I see it happening.
― pandemic, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:04 (eleven years ago) link
no way, already think Greece can mess with their game-plan
― Mexès Coleslaw Massacre (Noodle Vague), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:06 (eleven years ago) link
the worst thing that would likely happen vs greece is getting to 65 mins at 0-0, at which point bringing on the big machers would step things up better than bringing on klose gotze reus

Pretty sure I heard some TV talking heads discussing England resting some of their top players against Sweden, to "rest them for later in the tournament" - who exactly these top players were, I've no idea, Ashley Young maybe?
― Too Busy Thinking About Mr. Abie (Tom D.), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:15 (eleven years ago) link
Jordan Henderson. He's had an extra long rest
― Number None, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:16 (eleven years ago) link
Martin Kelly
― pandemic, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:20 (eleven years ago) link
over the last ten days or w/e it is I think I've seen every single England player who's been on the pitch cited as playing well, and also as playing badly
― jacob von logflume (DJ Mencap), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:22 (eleven years ago) link
for real though, there's no way Parker lasts 120 minutes if it comes to that
― Number None, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:22 (eleven years ago) link
forgot Henderson was there, kinda makes Milner's ever-presence even weirder
― Mexès Coleslaw Massacre (Noodle Vague), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:26 (eleven years ago) link
(xxp) You mean someone other than Roy Hodgson thinks Ashley Young has played well?

By the way, I missed the start of Ukraine game, did Rooney sing the national anthem?
― Too Busy Thinking About Mr. Abie (Tom D.), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:27 (eleven years ago) link
He sung Ukraine's.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:28 (eleven years ago) link
That would be more acceptable in Croxteth than God Save the Queen

rooney did sing it, having not sung it when he was in the stands. i was looking forward to a good 'they should all sing it!' thing but ah well.
― Chris, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:31 (eleven years ago) link
rooney did sing it

Fair play to Shearer butting in there, Lee Dixon wasn't actually saying anything.

rmde at the sudden lockstep from downplaying england to IN IT TO WIN IT ITALY ARE NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT
― dis civilization and its contents (nakhchivan), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:38 (eleven years ago) link
Milner completes 9 passes in 69' versus Ukraine
whereas in Italy, for example, Milner might already have been granted a reverential nickname like "the Woodlouse" or "the Marching Gnome" or "Tiny Soldier-Legs".
― boxall, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:40 (eleven years ago) link
did Rooney sing the national anthem?
Is this a thing? I noticed he sang it and was disappointed because I'm fairly sure he never used to. I also noticed G Nev singing it for the first match and he definitely never used to sing it. Has there been some kind of pressure from above / tabloid storm?

You ever get smacked by a ball at high speed 500 times a night? Starts to sting after a while.

srs qn
how can u care about probably the best paid squad in the competition (them or spain i guess) p much being outplayed for 80+% of the time so far and being the only side other than greece or ireland who can't play even a rudimentary possession game and being full or srsly despicable players?
― dis civilization and its contents (nakhchivan), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:44 (eleven years ago) link
Apparently Hodgson wanted his lads to sing the Nat. Anthem, gawd bless you, ma'am.(XP)
You forgot, BALOTELLI IS THE ONLY ONE WHO PLAYS IN ENGLAND THEREFORE HE IS THE DANGER MAN
― Too Busy Thinking About Mr. Abie (Tom D.), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:45 (eleven years ago) link
Which are they: full or seriously despicable? (xp)

It wasn't composed with sport in mind, I'd feel half-defeated by the end of that dirge. And yet you'd think the eastern ones would create armies of ultramotivated supermen.

I'm struggling to care as much as I did in 2004 though. Probably missing the Sweden game has had some impact there.
― Matt DC, Friday, 22 June 2012 14:49 (eleven years ago) link
I'm not missing the Sweden game that much.

Jonathan Wilson @jonawilsJust seen Carlos Bianchi prop up a sleeping man as he slid off chair then gesticulate derisively at him as he wondered whether to wake him
Jonathan Wilson @jonawilsGiven how much he looks like Larry Davud, that was pretty much a five-minute live show of Curb.

at a certain point a team just gets so graceless and vile that rational thought has to kick in
like at the last world cup when a holland side no more thuggish and considerably more skilful and with probably slightly fewer total cunts got to the final, ppl like cruijff were saying that it would be a travesty for that side to win
― dis civilization and its contents (nakhchivan), Friday, 22 June 2012 14:53 (eleven years ago) link
sweden game was cracking. they didn't play well either though, they can't control a game for the life of them.
