Euro 2012: Day 4: Ukraine v Sweden match thread

[Misfit]

I don't know about that.

Judging by today's game, I think France's defence will be more concerned with these 2 teams than England.

Glen Johnson or Martin Kelly against good wingers + and old but still clever Sheva = sad face for me. We'll need to beat Sweden first anyway.

Glen Johnson or Martin Kelly

Oh shit, you got me. For some reason I was just thinking of them as a unit, rather than considering the weak links.

 

[Misfit]

WTF, indeed.

 

[elDiablo]

i can see england v sweden being really dull.

 

[Misfit]

WTF, indeed.

 

[nightgoat]

England v Sweden usually is dull.

 

[ikky]

Elmander the twat!

 

[nightgoat]

Oh dear Elmander.

 

[DuDe]

See ... the 'Bendtner Curse' continues.

What. A. Chance.

What. A. Muppet.

 

[DuDe]

I see a bit of a John Terry knee in the back there.

That's going to give someone nightmares.

Sweden will be kicking themselves they havent got an equaliser here.

It's good for the tourney that Ukraine won, but a draw would've been better for us.

 

[mpickard2087]

We should beat Sweden. Ukraine look decent in attack, and obviously have home support, but I think if we try and do some attacking for once we will have enough to beat them.

Sorry of this has been mentioned already but Yarmolenko is perfect for Spurs!
Plays on the right, can trick and cross or float in and score. Great balance for a tall guy, acceleration, consistent throughout the game. Makes the RW position into another striker essentially and would fill the space perfectly if Adebayor does one of his pull out wide moves.

I honestly think this guy, Vertonghen and Adebayor could make Spurs title contenders!

Or, if we beat Sweden and Ukraine get anything against France, who knows, France could end up going home early again.

Was thinking the same, only problem would be whether he could adjust to the pace of the EPL. He can actually play on the left as well as he's a natural leftie. Spurs sure could to worse than getting him as a WMF.

Just seen the highlights of this and fair play Shevchenko! Must have felt fantastic.

 

[Mr Pink]

England should beat both of them, but particularly Sweden. If we can't beat them on Friday night we won't deserve to advance.
