What's the kick off time, I don't want to listen to all the studio foreplay.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.

God, everyones so negative, including those commentators, about Englands chances. Surely you can stand by your team and show some confidence?
Did anyone see that interview with Roy Hodgson a few mins back? He looked tense, uncomfortable and out of place, to be frank. And then he says, we are quite relaxed...

Did BBC get fooled by the Sterling strike? they actually made the scoreline 1-0, then quickly changed to 0-0 :)

Just switched on and I thought we'd scored, what a shot from Stirling. I hope England don't wear themselves out in the first 10 minutes.

The team is picked on what club players play for, and by sponsors, the starting XI is :

Man C
Everton x2
Chelsea
Liverpool x5
Man U x2

Danny Welbeck is the biggest pile of **** at the WC, yet plays game after game after game, he doesn't even get in the Man U side.

Theoretically these should be the best players, as they play for the best performing clubs… (except ManU)
Anyway, I am not an expert of English football, so can't comment on who's better…

To put into perspective, EVERY pundit, when asked what XI they'd play today had Lallana in it, SkySports spoke to an Italian Journalist who said that Lallana was the player the Italians would fear the most, he was the best player in the last friendly, and he doesn't play.

Who' giving the expert comments, he's worried to death every time they get the ball.

Phil Neville, him on commentary and Rio Ferdinand in the studio shows how low the BBC has sunk, they are as bad as Owen on BT Sport.

Also, this is an extremely poor Italy side...who have won once in 9 games I think, and that was against a Brazilian club side.
