England looked terrible. I understand they were playing an intentionally ugly style, but their complete inability to possess the ball was horrific.
Italy does not belong with the other three teams and the fact they will be on far shorter rest than the Germans will probably expose that even more. I fully expect Italy to park the bus and hope to convert what few chances fall to them. It won't work....
I think Portugal has a real good chance to beat Spain and possibly take this whole thing.

But don't you dare to say Carrick (and even Scholes) should be one of the first names on the sheet or the ABU-gang will slaughter you. Pirlo had the time of his life against a non-existent English midfield. Oh, and James Milner. And Jordan Henderson. Andy Carroll. Wayne Rooney's England form since 2004. Scott Parker. Woy.

I used to like watching Arsenal simply because of Fabregas, I'm plenty happy if it's Germany and Spain because I like watching those two teams play so much.

The propaganda on Football Focus defending Cardiff's kit change is shocking.
