Tell that to them now that Croatia are in the piss easy side of the draw.

Italy couldn't give a shit about this game. They just played cos they had to. They didn't want to get injured hence Ireland dominated. If Italy cared, comfortable 3-0 minimum.

Well done to the Irish though. Lucky enough to face a side who didn't care and did the job.


like when we beat germany, this is bad irish team, your a tool.
that team would probably have beaten england and were desperately trying to score.

Even Buffon who plays every game decided to take the night off.

Enjoy the lucky win. You're through. Well done.


thanks
he was ill they played a first choice back line, couldnt play chiellini hes on a yellow. do your research

Eder, Pelle, Giaccherini, Parolo, Candreva & Buffon were all rested and all have been decent for the Ities so far

and Chiellini

buffon is sick, has eder started every game?
honestly there is little to no difference in their replacements, some are probably better like florenzi. insigne too obviously.

Still, Conte lost to Ireland. Ireland. That's humiliating. Equivalent losing to Arsenal at Chelsea.

yes

and of course there's a difference when you disrupt a back line and chop and change players at will. doesn't matter if the individual quality is better than those they were brought in for, it just disrupts chemistry when there's a large amount of change in a starting XI

england were actually half decent against wales and absolutely shite against slovakia for the same reason

sorry but i disagree, i actually think it should only make the team stronger as the other players are extremely hungry.
they were missing two of their backline through suspension and illness lets get that straight.
you guys are actually having a laugh trying to take away from that victory in any way, i would be honest enough to agree if it were true.
i expected half arsedness and a shit team from italy but no dice on that front.

also we beat germany, this isnt exactly a fluke, the result of a roasting from roy and good positive tactics, putem under pressure.
and f***ing giacheranni, the guy is awful, conte has his personal favorites and he is one.

we might get hammered but i honestly think we wont and will give france a very tough game, france have been woeful.
we have the chance to pay them back for that handball now. and then england in the quarters would be unbelievable winning that.

looool no-ones taking the victory away from Ireland but if they had a full strength side i could envisage them seeing the game out. especially if they didn't have two useless strikers up front like they did tonight

Great win. I think Italy would not lose if the goal was not coming so late. They aimed for a point only and conceded a late goal with hardly any time to response.
