I always have a soft spot for England because the last time they won anything was in 1966! I was about 7 or 8 at the time! So it would be nice if they could produce a decent performance and win at the same time. Realistically I see the score being Italy 2 England 1, might even be more.

I'd like to see Milner off early in the second half, and then Rooney not far after if he doesn't improve!

Yeah for sure Milner shouldn't be playing...he's not been good enough in this Euro's

Milner and Rooney off, Caroll and Walcott on.

Caroll will appear eventually he causes problems in the air but Buffon looks class tonight!

To be fair, he's gone from not playing for a while to playing 2 games in a week - it's bound to exhaust any person. Not that's a good excuse to keep him on, but yeah :p Oh well, we've got more then enough fantastic reserves to keep us chugging on.

Italy are getting into good spots to shoot (which is scary) but not good enough to get a healthy amount on target (which is good).

I'm personally thinking it's going to end 1-1 and go to ET or Penalties.

I don't care :p This is the QF and we need players who perform!

The kind of team he plays for and the money he earns you stay fit!

England don't deserve to win but I feel they will get lucky at penalties

Why don't England deserve to win?
