What a ball from Pirlo, what a gather and finish from Villa.

I love those two players. Fuck NYCFC, but those two are so fun to watch.

 

bad call to give a penalty for that but game is over anways

 

What an absurd miss from Villa, haha

 

uh oh, not over yet!

 

It's okay.

Lampard is gonna come on and seal the deal, right?

 

No penalty there?

 

Molino!

Holy shit

 

Whistle shoulda been blown once Lampard cleared it after Orlando's possession that was happening after the 3 minutes were up, but ya know, whatever.

 

It's always a minimum amount of time added on, so if something happened after the 90 minutes were up (sub, fight, injury, etc) it gets added on to the end of stoppage time.

 

the kits for the euros are all fucking awful.

 

Gonna have to try and watch the Wimbledon match in work today. Sort your bank holidays out there lads.

 

Speaking of kits have you seen the new Ireland rugby jersey with the massive vodafone logo? Terrible.

 

oh god that is fucking awful.

 

Higuain scored a goal reminiscent of Bergkamp vs Newcastle against Honuras. Completely skinned the defender.

 

France kit with the tricolour on the sleeves is lush.

 

that's the away? was only looking at the ones on sky sports. mostly home jersey's

 

Really glad this is a Euros year so I don't have to dwell on the play off heartache for too long.

So who's not going then? Delph for sure. I think Sturridge might be facing the chop. I'd put Henderson at the bottom of the pile of midfielders so he can go too for me.

 

Delph seems to have missed out, the other two will be a matter of fitness. Probably Sturridge and Henderson or Townsend if Henderson is fit.

 

y'all think rashford is going now?

 

I can't see why not. He's been in good form for United since breaking in. Scoring on his debut didn't harm his cause either. He'll make a good impact sub on for either Kane or Vardy.

 

If Sturridge isn't fit then I think Rashford would go.

 

Realistically it's down to Sturidge and Rashford for a spot on the bench. Could make arguments for both, but for romantic reasons, I say Rashford.

 

Sturridge is the better player, but he's made of glass. I'd take Rashford.

 

In a few years Rashford will be the better player. I know I'm a United fan and all, but that's coming from someone who rates Sturidge higher than most. I just think Rashford has everything it takes to be a world class striker.

 

roy'll prob bring both and send a centre back home
