Rubbish pass by Rooney there. 
Neither team looks particularly hot, TBH.
OK, who's supposed to be marking #21 Pirlo...?
And Rooney? 
Roy won't have the balls to take Rooney off... it'll probably be Milner again, he's been the scapegoat from the minute the tournament started.
He's not great, but neither is Parker or Young. Johnson having one of his better games though. If you replace Milner with Walcott, you leave the risk of leaving fullback exposed when Johnson gets forward.
Marking? Like with chalk or paint?
It's quite simple... Rooney and Parker off, move Milner into the centre next to Gerrard and bring on Walcott and Carroll. Walcott is a natural winger, Milner is a box to box midfielder and Carroll will hold the ball up... which is exactly what England need right now.
Sounds good meaty. Certainly can't be any worse that what's happened so far.
I swear, Rooney wants it right at his feet cos he sure won't move for it

Rosé, Fluffy.
Joe Hart should put in for overtime.

Me too. Spooky 
Not so much spooky as good taste, Nutsy 
The inmates at Cosmo Towers now seem to be permanently commenting "FFS"
Interspersed with a few "grrr's" and "argh's".

I'm on the Black Tower. £5.69 in Morrissons. I saw it for £4 in Asda after that and didn't have enough money to bulk buy. I don't get paid till Tuesday
Sounds like meaty's subs are coming on, but who's going off?
Milner off, don't agree with that.. Parker is puffing away and looks injured now. Johnson can't get too far forward now, suppose he doesn't need to with Walcott in front though.
Is it ok to say that England are just rubbish whoever is their manager?

Second half they might have, but they do go down as if they've been shot sometimes

So do English players.

Not as well as any other country according to the Englanders.

Nah, Italians really are the best at it. (Apart from Klinsman when he was playing)

I hope so. Go England.
What the hell did Wallcot pass it to Rooney for. It was obvious Rooney wasn't in a position to do anything with it.
IMO it'll go to penalties.
