Euro 2016 - Quarter Finals

[Pleb]

Poland v Portugal (ITV, 20:00 - 30/06)
Wales v Belgium (BBC, 20:00 - 01/07)
Italy v Germany (BBC, 20:00 - 02/07
France v Iceland (ITV, 20:00 - 03/07)

Now that the meltdown has cooled off somewhat do any of these teams have what it takes to win the whole thing?

[Dquincy]

I can guarantee that one of them has what it takes to win the whole thing.

Not sure whether to support Wales or not. Probably not.

[Reg]

It'll be whoever wins Italy/Germany. I think Italy are slight favourites.

[Lewis]

1. Ronaldo
2. Belgium
3. Germany
4. France

Portugal bollocksing their way to the title, and Nani wins the Ballon d'Or. :drool:

[Lee]

I think Italy will win it, but then I've already changed my mind twice so far because I know fuck all.

[Baz]

Do the winners of the top two face eachother? ie Poland vs Wales in the semis.

Basically I'm asking if Wales vs Iceland can be the final. :drool:

[Smiffy]

.....

[Pleb]

Wales winning the whole thing would make the meltdown even more epic.

[Luke Emia]

I've got Italy in the work sweepstake. If they win this one I will almost be able to taste the money.

[Foe]

I'm going to the stade velodrome tomorrow in the awkward position of hoping neither team wins.

:moop:

Germany - Italy will be tasty. Both looked good so fancy the winner of that to take it. France look too fragile.

[Raoul Duke]

Germany are going to win it. Playing good football, settled team and a cutting edge far above what the others can muster.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Poland, Belgium, Germany and France for me.

[ItalAussie]

Germany have never lost to Italy in a tournament match before, at the World Cup or the Euros (out of eight meetings so far).

Means nothing when they're out on the pitch, but it's an interesting factoid.

[Shindig]

Where did you get that bollocks statistic? Italy beat Germany 2-0 en route to a World Cup victory in 2006.

[ItalAussie]

Ah, I wrote that the wrong way around, although I meant the correct thing. I meant to say that Italy have never lost to Germany. Eight meetings, no losses.

1962 World Cup: 0-0
1970 World Cup: 4-3 (aet)
1978 World Cup: 0-0
1982 World Cup: 3-1
1988 European Cup: 1-1
1996 European Cup: 0-0
2006 World Cup: 2-0 (aet)
2012 European Cup: 2-1

It's a pretty decent record, although only two of them were settled with a result in normal time.

[elth]

Is this thing still going etc.

[Byron]

Now this is quite astonishing.

In an interview with GQ magazine, England and Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge has offered the startling revelation that he sprays cosmetics on his kit before game. His fragrance of choice? Strawberry-scented moisturiser.

"People might think it’s strange," he said. "But I like smelling it, so it’s not about what anyone else thinks. Fragrance probably shows people who you are as much as your clothes do."

I don't even know where to start.

[Davgooner]

Anyone else in Paris this weekend? :moop:

[Jimmy Floyd]

Amigo is. You can both down 12 Euro pints together to the rhythm of that Viking chant.

[Davgooner]

Glyfi's on fire.

:dance:

[Pepe]

I don't even know where to start.

That's the issue with the current lot. Proper English hardmen would spray paint thinner on their tricot so the fumes keep them at full PASSION throughout the match. Strawberry? Get the fuck outta here.

[Magic]

Thank fuck there's football on tonight, lads.

[Disco]

Spraying perfume on your kit or taking snaps of your platinum toilet is all very well and good when you've actually won something. Doing it when you're an inconsistent, injury prone, mid-table wanker should get you burnt at the stake.

Roll on the great crash.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I hope the great crash is as sudden and dramatic as the Brexit one.

'We regret to announce that as of this morning, Everton FC has closed.'

[Magic]

I might add Raheembae on Snapchat just to see dem toiletz. :drool:

[Adramelch]

Spraying perfume on your kit or taking snaps of your platinum toilet is all very well and good when you've actually won something. Doing it when you're an inconsistent, injury prone, mid-table wanker should get you burnt at the stake.

Roll on the great crash.

You're talking about Champions League winner Daniel Sturridge, I'll have you know.

[Disco]

You're talking about Champions League winner Daniel Sturridge, I'll have you know.

Scoring as many goals as I did in the process.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Glyfi's on fire.

:dance:
All the cod are terrified?

[Bob Sacamano]

In Marseille tonight, ton of English here having a great old time, off to the game tonight

[Foe]

In Marseille tonight, ton of English here having a great old time, off to the game tonight

Marseille is a shit hole and it's too hot. So I'm hiding in my hotel room until the game.

[Bob Sacamano]

We've had a Great time here. No trouble what so ever, get your arse down to omalleys

[Bartholomert]

Anyone else in Paris this weekend? :moop:

Tryna debate the finer points of 2nd Amendment jurisprudence? :wave:

[Magic]

Does anyone else think it's a bit weird that one team has to play the final 3 days after the semi?

[Disco]

The schedule has been crap (ie designed by the French/communists), the whole thing is a week longer than it needed to be.

[Savi]

Vertonghen done for the tournament

Vermaelen was already going to miss the Wales game due to suspension

[Waffdon]

Lukaku at left back. :sick:

[Pleb]

Portugal XI: Rui Patricio, Cedric, Pepe, Jose Fonte, Eliseu, William Carvalho, Adrien Silva, Renato Sanches, Joao Mario, Nani, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Poland XI: Fabianski, Piszczek, Glik, Pazdan, Jedrzejczyk, Blaszczykowski, Maczynski, Krychowiak, Grosicki, Milik, Lewandowski.

[Foe]

Goals please Portgual you bunch of wanks. Not another shite fest like the Croatia game.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Krychowiak and the boys are going to reduce Ronaldo to tears and it's going to be fucking glorious.

[Magic]

This is going to be a full 120 minute utter shitfest.

[John]

The first five seconds of the studio broadcast to open the show were brilliant, almost certainly better than anything the game will provide. Pougatch opened with 'the world and his wife have had their say', to which Ryan Giggs let out a nervous titter. Pougatch looked really fucking pleased with himself too.

[Magic]

Fuck off with the applause. So mawkish. Silence or nothing.

[Pleb]

Mahow :drool:

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

:drool:

Get fucked Ronaldo.

[Magic]

This is going to be a full 120 minute utter shitfest.

:face:

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Grosicki is a fucking hero too.

[randomlegend]

This is going to be a full 120 minute utter shitfest.

Lol.

[Lewis]

I think every Porko in that half of the field was somehow at fault for that.

[Magic]

Fantastic stat: 41 attempts at direct free kicks for Ronaldo at international tournaments and he's never scored one. :harold:

[Pleb]

Portugal are actually worse than us which makes the meltdown even more lol.

[John]

He's shite at them. If one in every million didn't whizz into the top corner at Mach 5 he'd be lolled out of the stadium every time he showed interest in hitting one. Wasn't there a stat that said of everyone who's hit over a certain number of free kicks he has the worst accuracy?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Fantastic stat: 41 attempts at direct free kicks for Ronaldo at international tournaments and he's never scored one. :harold:

I know that before the tournament only 8 of his 34 attempts had even hit the target.

I can't remember any this year hitting the target yet.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

That was lovely build up play.

Shame the end ball wasn't there.

[Magic]

Nani is a disgrace of a footballer.

[Magic]

Portugal are actually worse than us which makes the meltdown even more lol.

Lol no.

[Lewis]

Roberto Carlos must have had a worse record than Ronaldo. He used to consider anything in the opposition half fair game, and every team he played in must have had about three better options at any given time.

[Pleb]

That was a penalty :D

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Referee gives that if Ronaldo doesn't throw himself to the ground like a fanny.

[Magic]

That INJUSTICE will spur him on to a hatrick.

[Waffdon]

Referee gives that if Ronaldo doesn't throw himself to the ground like a fanny.

What? :D

Lovely goal.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

That was great.

[Magic]

Holy shit.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

What? :D

Lovely goal.
It wasn't a natural fall.

[Pleb]

Woof.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Deflection took that past Fabianski.

Renato Sanches is just a shit Dzsudzsak.

[Gray Fox]

How dare he not pass that to Ronaldo.

[Magic]

Ronny seething his limelight is being impeded.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Milik fucking loves a dummy.

[Magic]

Rui Patricio sounds like the star trans act at the Rio Carnaval.

[Max Power]

Chief Keef is running this game. Great talent

[Waffdon]

Sanches is going to be Zidane levels.

[Magic]

Sanches is going to be Zidane levels.

:sick:

[Waffdon]

OVERPAID NONCE.

mmmm

[igor_balis]

pretty sure waffz is basing it on his potential on fifa career mode

[Foe]

Lewandowsk looks class here.

http://i67.tinypic.com/2ptov87.jpg

Was expecting an utter shit fest after the Croatia game but Portugal seem to actually fancy going forward and Poland are a tidy team.

More goals please. And rotation.

[Dquincy]

Lovely seeing Ronaldo getting rear ended.

[Foe]

Foe selfie.

http://i68.tinypic.com/152p011.jpg

[igor_balis]

why is there a sandbox there

[Bob Sacamano]

Shit I'm near foe. Or maybe the other side

https://i.imgur.com/cHGOcOih.jpg

[Dquincy]

That muscle toning advert with Ronaldo is comical. Not sure why i get a boner.

Edit: Hi Foe.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

why is there a sandbox there

For the kids.

That's why Foe chose those seats.

[Waffdon]

I've seen nothing that suggests that.

Geezer is his countries best player at fkn 18.

[randomlegend]

Geezer is his countries best player at fkn 18.

:lol:

[Magic]

Shit I'm near foe

:drool:

[Magic]

Geezer is his countries best player at fkn 18.

I know you weren't born but Rooney 04.

[Waffdon]

I know you weren't born but Rooney 04.

He turned out alright.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Everything Waff says regarding football should be taken with a pinch of salt.

[Waffdon]

Everything Waff says regarding football should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Everything I've said in these euros threads has been T1.

[Magic]

He turned out alright.

:baz:

Did you ever see Zinny play?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Why do commentators feel the need to mention rankings in international matches?

They're a fucking shambles.

[Waffdon]

:baz:

Did you ever see Zinny play?

Seen a thirty second Facebook clip of him that one time.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

That's 2-1 if Ronaldo wasn't an egotistical wanker.

[Spoonsky]

Selfish bastard.

[Pleb]

Ronaldo's having a bit of a mare this tournament :baz:

[Adramelch]

That's 2-1 if Ronaldo wasn't an egotistical wanker.

Not to absolve Ronaldo of any blame as he didn't even bother to look, but the defender had a much better position than Joao Mario or whoever it was.

[Pen]

Not to mention Joao Mario is completely shit. (I've never seen him play before this tournament, but he's like a shit Raul Meireles)

edit: Maybe I have as he plays for Sporting.

[Spoonsky]

Poland play some neat stuff, but they do it about twice per half.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

:harold:

[Magic]

Quite like Portugal. Proper tournament team.

[Pleb]

Ronaldo :roflol:

[Spoonsky]

Oh lol. That's twice he's done that.

[Magic]

Lol @ the political reference.

[Adramelch]

Quite like Portugal. Proper tournament team.

It's Fernando Santos. That's his thing.

[John]

The commentator on this has been rolling all the best cliches. 'This game might be decided by a moment of genius, or a moment of madness.' Yeah, and it might be decided by an eagle stealing the ball, or Ronaldo combusting, or a nifty set piece. Complete non-commentary.

[Magic]

Sam Doesntmatterface.

[Pepe]

Just tuned in. Ronaldo to do a Messi in the PKs. :drool:

[Spoonsky]

It's an unfortunate quirk of knockout football that the worst matches also tend to last the longest.

[Foe]

Shit I'm near foe. Or maybe the other side

https://i.imgur.com/cHGOcOih.jpg

I'm definitely beside Poland fans, Portgual section is waaaaay across the other side. Got a good view of lewnadowski goal.

[Reg]

I think they should get rid of extra time in all competitions to be honest. It's rarely any good*, let's just get to the penalties.

*Madrid derby in the 14/15 CL final being the biggest exception that I can think of.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

:D

He should just give up.

[Boydy]

I could've scored one of Ronaldo's chances by now.

[Dquincy]

Stick it on mute then you moany bastard.

[John]

Muting an irritating twat is not a suggestion you should really be making, Quincy.

[Disco]

You can't be talking about the sainted Andy Townsend?

[Magic]

No it's Sam.

[Dquincy]

Apparently the goals-per-game average in this tournament is 1.96. That's lower than any World Cup in history and lower than any European Championship since 1980.

[Magic]

This is going to be a full 120 minute utter shitfest.

:)

[Baz]

Turd game is turd.

Only Ronaldo's tears can make it all worthwhile. C'mon Pizscek.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

:D

Best thing all night.

I love that they didn't cut away for a bit too.

[Pleb]

An invader heading towards Ronaldo apparently :harold:

[Dquincy]

Was he trouserless?

[Pleb]

Probably.

[Magic]

What the fuck? :D

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

748628108408930304

[Magic]

5/1 it was Foe or Bob.

[Kikó]

Great tackle.

[Spoonsky]

Neither team deserves to advance. Winner of Belgium-Wales goes straight to the final.

[Disco]

To be honest that's pretty brave if there really is snipers on the roof etc etc.

Balls like a Brazilian electrician.

[John]

5/1 it was Foe or Bob.

Foe would have lost his bearings and ended up pissing himself in the car park.

[Reg]

Ronaldo to do his "I'll take the fifth and be the hero" thing for the third time, before Portugal miss all of their first four and he throws a tantrum.

[Magic]

Foe would have lost his bearings and ended up pissing himself in the car park.

He probably wouldn't have the self confidence to do it either being that bald.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

If Foe was going to invade the pitch he'd do it in his tiger onesie chomping on a lettuce.

[Magic]

Ronaldo to do his "I'll take the fifth and be the hero" thing for the third time, before Portugal miss all of their first four and he throws a tantrum.

Or miss? :drool:

[Foe]

He probably wouldn't have the self confidence to do it either being that bald.

I'm wearing a hat. Unfortunately my hamstrings don't suit pitch invasions.

[Magic]

Bloody dreadful. The quality on show is appalling and has been throughout the tournament.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I'd be seething if I got James Martin's stuffed loaf.

[Pepe]

Or miss? :drool:

And retire from international football afterwards.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

The first? What a pussy.

[Reg]

So he's done the opposite. Top corner.

[Pleb]

If he misses :drool:

[Pepe]

Same as Messi. :drool:

[Pepe]

Still a fucking cunt.

[Reg]

That's so cool from Lew. I'd shit myself waiting for the keeper.

[Kikó]

Renato mate.

[Waffdon]

:cool:

[Pleb]

Nani to fuck it all up.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

The sound of Milik's penalty when it hit the net :drool:

[Lewis]

Nani to fuck it all up.

I was thinking that.

[Kikó]

I think the tactic is go left.

[Adramelch]

Fabianski just jumps the same way every single time, doesn't he?

[Pleb]

Well fuck.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Kuba you fucking prick.

[five time]

Ronaldo's not even standing with the rest of the team. I bet they hate him.

[Pleb]

Please miss.

[Lewis]

Gahahahaha Mahow you twat.

[Pleb]

:moop:

[-james-]

I fucking hate Portugal.

[John]

121'
HE MISSES - Poland misses in the penalty shoot-out
121'
G O O O A A L - Nani scores in the penalty shoot-out
121'
G O O O A A L - Kamil Glik scores in the penalty shoot-out

Just had a lol at that from Livescore. Not even attempting the name.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Poland's fitness just wasn't good enough and had to play for penalties.

Fuck Ronaldo the giraffe prick.

[Waffdon]

Beautiful.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Portugal into the semis without a 90 minute win. Fucking hell.

[Spoonsky]

The problem with playing for penalties is that sometimes you go out on penalties.

[Shindig]

Portugal being done over by an Icelandic long throw is now closer to reality.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I hope Wales (please no) or Belgium fucking batter the pricks.

[Kikó]

Giraffe > *

[randomlegend]

Ronaldo :cool:

[Reg]

Great penalties from Portugal. It'd reflect the tournament well if they win the whole thing without actually winning.

The other quarters should be good to be fair.

[John]

A Portugal v Iceland final in which Ronaldo fluffs a few chances to gift it to Iceland would be a dream. The cloud of seethe coming off Ronaldo would be like that volcano.

[Serj]

In the second round the entertainment value of the matches picked up massively after the Portugal game, so I'm hoping for the same here.

[Magic]

Experts at shitting out a win. Superb.

[Bartholomert]

Oddly muted reaction after the penalties, no? Quaresma must not be liked.

Also fun fact, the Turkish league has the most number of players represented at the tournament with 23. I think.

[John]

Your last fun fact was emphatically not a fact, which meant it wasn't much fun either.

[Magic]

Explains why it's been so shit.

[Pen]

Oddly muted reaction after the penalties, no? Quaresma must not be liked.

Also fun fact, the Turkish league has the most number of players represented at the tournament with 23. I think.

Surely the Premier league will have more? All the English players are from the Prem (I think) so that alone is 23.

edit: 139 for England, so a few more. http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/news/newsid=2371017.html

[phonics]

Thought they were going to whip out a heatmap.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Lol.

Yeah that didn't seem right. I'm not sure where I got that from.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/news/newsid=2371017.html

Germany and Italy have more too.

Also the Turkish league has more than 23...

Edit: Fuck your edit Pen.

[Pen]

To be fair. Turkey being the fourth highest is still somewhat of a surprise for me. More players from the Championship too than Ligue 1.

[John]

I'd have assumed Mert meant the most players still represented at the tournament. Even he isn't that thick.

Probably still wrong though. Most of the Germans are based at home and they have a fair few Polish and Spanish to make up the numbers.

EDIT - Seems maybe he is that thick. :D

[Bartholomert]

Fenerbahce has the 6th most players at the Euro 2016 though, tied with Bayern and Barca so there's that small victory to make up for my huge whiff.

[phonics]

Most of the Premier League players are total betas so they don't count. Quaresma has for some reason got gang tattoos saying that he murdered 2 people while in prison so he counts for 3. 18 to 25. Turkey wins.

[Bartholomert]

To be fair. Turkey being the fourth highest is still somewhat of a surprise for me. More players from the Championship too than Ligue 1.

Where are you seeing that. EDIT: JK I scrolled down. Jeez what is wrong with me today.

And yes I was that thick. The Turkish commentator said something like that a few games back but I wasn't really paying attention and it's possible it was qualified in some way.

[John]

Where are you seeing that. EDIT: JK I scrolled down. Jeez what is wrong with me today.

And yes I was that thick. The Turkish commentator said something like that a few games back but I wasn't really paying attention and it's possible it was qualified in some way.

At the beginning of the tournament the Turkish league had the fourth most representatives at the tournament. Christ knows what the number would be now, but Ligue 1 was comfortably the lowest of the top leagues.


Domestic leagues with most representatives

139 – England (103 Premier League, 31 Championship, 4 League One, 1 League Two)
65 – Germany (57 1. Bundesliga, 8 2. Bundesliga)
56 – Italy (52 Serie A, 4 Serie B)
36 – Turkey (36 Süper Lig)
35 – Spain (34 Primera, 1 Segunda)
32 – Russia (32 Premier League)
22 – France (22 Ligue 1)

[Pen]

Wales, Northern Ireland, Ireland and Iceland with no home based players at all. Quite surprising that Austria only have one too as I would've though some of the squad players would have come from their bigger teams.

[John]

Teams with most clubs represented

22 – Iceland, Northern Ireland
21 – Sweden
20 – Albania, Poland, Slovakia

With the exception of Sweden, all overperformed to some degree.


Teams with fewest clubs represented

8 – Russia
10 – England, Ukraine

All wearying shite.

[Lee]

Portugal into the semis without a 90 minute win. Fucking hell.

They're Italy 1994. Ronaldo to sky the decisive penalty in the final please.

[Magic]

Dean Saunders is singlehandedly making me want Wales to get humped.

[P_3]

Would love it if Wales make the semi-final. Quite likely Belgium will put three past them instead.

[Lewis]

I hope Belgium batter them.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Indeed.

Holocaust denayer to have a monster game.

[Magic]

Is it just me or is pretty much every cross over hit?

[Yevrah]

How the fuck did they not score there?

[Dquincy]

Belgium are going to win this with relative ease. Benteke hatrick to seal his £30 mill Palace move.

[P_3]

That was easy. :face:

[Lewis]

Oof. What a freak.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Cracker of a goal from the dickhead.

[Yevrah]

Game over you'd imagine.

[Lewis]

Bareth Gale you baldy cunt.

[Pepe]

What a fucking rocket. Still. hard to enjoy a goal scored by someone who looks like that.

[-james-]

Still looks like a custom player made by a 12 year old on Pro Evo though.

Wales should score I think.

[John]

He smokes ten a day too, the fucking ned.

[Disco]

Is he Merse's final form?

[P_3]

1-1. :cool:

[randomlegend]

Wales are great.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Props for the celebration.

I do like Williams a lot for a Welshie.

[Magic]

Anyone else notice Melchiot looking totally lost just before the corner was taken?

[-james-]

Wales are everything England aren't.

[Yevrah]

That, Roy Hodgson, is how you organise an attacking set piece.

[Shindig]

Naingolan couldn't be fucked with watching his man.

[Lewis]

He's barely even Welsh. Wankers.

[Yevrah]

I'd make them the better team right now, Belgium look rattled.

Wales in the semi-final would be too much to cope with - I'd have to do something to Hodgson and Neville I think.

[bruhnaldo]

i drew Wales in the random draw so g'wan Red Dragons.

Edit: Plus I think I'm like .0014% Welsh like all Americans, so there you go.

[Raoul Duke]

The absolute worst thing about this tournament is the close-up shots of fans who then chimpout and point at the screens when they see themselves. Every time.

[bruhnaldo]

Ashley Williams you fucking cunt.

Edit - Raoul idk but I've always hated that as well. One time I noticed I was on the big screen (with a group) at an American football game and to be honest I tried to pretend I had no idea cause it almost felt embarrassing.

[Kikó]

Wales have the advantage of playing week in week out in the bplsbb which you can't amount for.

[Shindig]

I'd make them the better team right now, Belgium look rattled.

Wales in the semi-final would be too much to cope with - I'd have to do something to Hodgson and Neville I think.

Why? Smaller nations have got themselves organised this tournament. It's intriguing to watch. And if you like watching Wales fail, a semi-final shootout BOTTLEJOB would at least provide some entertainment.

[Yevrah]

Why? Smaller nations have got themselves organised this tournament. It's intriguing to watch. And if you like watching Wales fail, a semi-final shootout BOTTLEJOB would at least provide some entertainment.

You misunderstand me. I want Wales to win this, it's just that it hammers home how awful Hodgson, that bullshitting wanker and England were.

[five time]

Does the welsh league have a winter break?

[Magic]

Shearer having a little dig.

[bruhnaldo]

Just realized I'll get to catch some good ol' fashion residual English seethe if Wales play well/advance. :drool:

[Boydy]

The absolute worst thing about this tournament is the close-up shots of fans who then chimpout and point at the screens when they see themselves. Every time.

Yeah. What happened to the pervy cameramen picking out the unaware fitties? Bring them back.

[Yevrah]

Just realized I'll get to catch some good ol' fashion residual English seethe if Wales play well/advance. :drool:

You will. I'm more annoyed now (about how shit we were) than I was on Monday actually.

[Disco]

Still not quite immune then Yev.

[igor_balis]

The absolute worst thing about this tournament is the close-up shots of fans who then chimpout and point at the screens when they see themselves. Every time.

fuck knows where or when it was, but i remember once a close-up camera shot of some fan when his team were getting beaten, his mate grins and grabs him to alert him to this fact, and his facial expression can easily be interpreted as 'fuck off, we're losing, i'm not giving a thumbs up to the camera like a dickhead'

#RESPECT

[Shindig]

If Yev let's an England defeat soak into him so much, he should probably find another sport.

[Yevrah]

Still not quite immune then Yev.

Indeed, I must have been in shock on Monday.

BBC had better not be using MY LICENSE FEE to pay Lampard to spout this platitudinous crap.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Lampard is shit.

[Magic]

Here he goes again. :D

[Yevrah]

Shearer's off again. :drool:

[igor_balis]

shearer is very good.

[Shindig]

Alan, you're not getting the job. Leave it.

[Raoul Duke]

Shearer's gonna lamp Roy if he sees him

[Disco]

Lampard sounded like he was about to start crying.

[Shindig]

"Like we saw in the game.. err.. earlier in the tournament." :D

[Magic]

Hartson: "He looked younanomous"

:D

[Raoul Duke]

Hartson is not an attractive man.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Fucking hell, elbows.

[Magic]

Faillaini to save the game? :harold:

[Raoul Duke]

Fellaini to run riot :drool:

[Boydy]

That's Belgium going out then.

[Dquincy]

Indeed, I must have been in shock on Monday.

BBC had better not be using MY LICENSE FEE to pay Lampard to spout this platitudinous crap.

The Sun unknowingly writing Thanks-Anus while trying an Italian headline. :D

[Yevrah]

That is fucking stunning.

[randomlegend]

Fucking hell he's donned those defenders senseless there.

That's the sort of shit that ends careers.

[bruhnaldo]

Someone give this man a club!

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Jesus, what a turn.

[Dquincy]

This is going to pens.

[SincereTheRebel]
