Euro U21 Championship 2015

[Mouse!]

He will just play Chambers there and then have BT label the future of english football

Ben Gibson will replace him apparently.

Berahino out of the tournament now. Which is just another excuse for the media to be even more effusive in praise of Danny Ings than they would have been if he was still at Burnley.

Who are we playing tonight? ?

Portugal

Looking forward to England tonight, feels too long since I celebrated a Kane goal

 

[Blake Griffin]

Ben Gibson will replace him apparently.

gibson would've started alongside stones, so it'll be him and one of moore/keane/chambers, none of which are anywhere near deserving of being ahead of dier.

I like the Belotti/Berardi combination for Italy. Much like England, the Italy U21 forwards are better than the seniors.

 

[Lufti]

Come on the Swedes!

 

[Blake Griffin]

carroll and kane start for england, pritchard on the bench - jesse lingard preferred to him

Don't worry. I have every faith that Pritch will show his class when called upon.

 

[Lufti]

Terrible penalty to give away, he was going nowhere

BREAKINGTEAM NEWS
England v Portugal (19:45 BST)

England


Harry Kane leads the line for England, while Stoke keeper Jack Butland is captain. Liverpool's newest signing Danny Ings is on the bench.

England: Butland (c), Jenkinson, Moore, Gibson, Garbutt, Ward-Prowse, Carroll, Chalobah, Redmond, Kane, Lingard

Italian U21s played so stupidly. Had it on a plate after the Swedish red card and literally threw it away.

When Sweden went a man down Italy kept the midfield 3v3 and Sweden didn't suffer at all. Naive tactics by Di Biagio. Sturaro then gets sent off for a rash push to the face and the keeper gives away a bloody stupid pen.

Deserve to lose, credit to Sweden. Their support is amazing too. England will have a tough game on Sunday.

 

[Hitch]

Dier not in the squad and now Pritchard not starting. Lingaard??

Utter joke.

 

[nightgoat]

Lingaard ahead of Pritchard? Really?

 

[Syn_13]

Nice ball by Carroll.

 

[Chris12]

Ward-Prowses shooting (from when I've seen him) has been pretty bad.

 

[nidge]

England have been sitting too deep without the ball so far but have looked OK when they eventually get the ball. Also England's centre backs don't look brilliant.

 

[Cornpattbuck]

How Dier isn't in front of these two lads I have no idea.

 

[Grapo2001]

Carroll playing really well
