could and probably should have won it, and easily lost it as well.

Giacchi not working at LWB, and can't play a 4 man defence with Maggio.

decisions, decisions.

test Balzaretti.

I dont get how Italy's defence was good, in particular Bonucci? If it hasnt beenTorres who were in those clear chances Italy would easly lose.Bonucci is bonehead.

Torres = best player ever

He's going to explode for Spain soon enough. That lob? Not something a player who is lacking confidence does. He'll be great this tournament, mark my words.

Both of Torres chances were a result of De Rossi coming out rashly.

You could say the same for Spain, as they missed Puyol a lot. But really I'd have to agree, I've seen better defensive performances. They just about did enough as a back '6', but there were some strange decisions and ways of protecting the goal. I'd like to see De Rossi back in midfield for Motta. Motta is more offensive and mobile (just), but Barzagli brings calm.

Buffon was also badly positioned for the second 'lob' chance, he got carried away after the first one, but really Torres still had two defenders to beat. Lucky.

Then you're a moron. Torres was an instant threat.

 

[AndreaCristiano]

test Balzaretti.

I thought he was gonna sub balzaretti in for the last sub but he didn't which confused me

what does that mean he was also an instant waste, could hit the broad side of a barn

 

[da_ledgeaun]

Stick with 3-5-2 and play Balza, but Giach wasnt bad,is just that,he is more of an attacker.. Bonucci was not that good,lucky he had Chiellini and De rossi playing really good.. Balo and Marchi should have scored those chances they got! I was seriously rooting Marchi to score the winner today!

Doesn't matter. Sooner or later he'll score. Think about it. You can only score when you create. Think real hard. I know you can.

create what? his confidence is shite and it shows, he came in and ran hard against an already tired italian defense. A few of his chances arose from defensive lapses not his offensive prowess. I think maybe you should look at things objectively

Torres is on the bench: Spain struggle to create two chances.

Torres is on the pitch: Spain have at least three good chances.

That is objective.

, he had some lapse where he thinks he is playing in the midfield and not as the defender at time
Hopefully Barzagli recovers for the second game

 

[frick]

test Balzaretti.

De Ceglie

De Ceglie

If hadnt been injured he had a chance to get picked, def with the 3-5-2.

Once again torres comes on when defense is tired, most of torres chances are because of defensive lapses not his skill

I don't care. When Torres is on, there are chances. That should tell you enough.

You're the one who can't be objective, because you can't acknowledge this fact.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

De Rossi (MOTM), Buffon, Marchisio, Maggio, Pirlo and Motta

I think we should try Balzaretti at LWB against Croatia.

I think it's a bit of both to be honest. Now shake cocks and grab a beer.
