The replacement is the starting keeper for PSG

Sirigu is a good keeper but Buffon is something special

Is it coming home?

 

[The39thStep]

This could be anything tbh from 0-0 to 3-3 . Both teams aren't good but are capable of a display and the worl sped cup is capable of throwing up some unpredictable results. Tempted to go 2-1 either way or balotelli to score at anytime or Cahill to score anytime

I've read this whole thread and can't figure out: who is favored to win this game?

It is going to be close. A game of two halves so to speak.

all 3 outcomes are pretty much evens apart from an england win which is a little bit shorter. there is no favourite really

Probably Italy but if you take into account that football is coming home then it's going to be a walkover for England.

Or just look at some betting odds in any country apart from. England or Italy and let us know.

Rumours that Sterling is starting

Ahead of Welbeck? Rooney? Jagielka?

Nothing actually confirmed yet

I can't print wild speculation! Come back to me when you have facts!

I like wild unfounded speculation

 

[ruffneck23]

For the first time ever I've put a bet on England , or 2

2-1 win 9/1
3-1win 25/1.

Put a tenner on both....

 

[goldenecitrone]

I'm hoping we've been inspired by the Dutch performance yesterday. We are due a big victory over Italy. I am going for 5-0.

 

[tommers]

Yes. I like welbeck. I think he's a decent player but sterling is in much better form.

Jesus christ, what happened to 3/1 or 11/2? That site hurts my eyes and is an affront to my traditional sensibilities but I think it's saying that England are slight favourites.

I have no clue what it says.

So why did you post it?

 

[big eejit]

I can't see Italy stopping England scoring. If Roy's bold enough to give it a go. I'm not sure that he is though.

Also not sure that we can stop Italy from scoring.

I'll go for 2-1 England.

This thread has great potential for entertainment later, what with an 11pm kick off in the UK

Not had a single beer yet. Not going to pub until 9. Not just the England players who have to pace themselves tonight.

Will you be watching the match JC? Cheering on either side?

I've had six pints. Football's coming home.

It's on at midnight Berlin time so I'm going to be well smashed by the time they kick off.

In other news, I saw about 15 English lads all wearing footie tops in the White Trash bar this afternoon. They'd already started drinking so they should be well on their way by now.
