UEFA Euro Thread.

[just cool]

Have to agree with Lefty (in essence). Lalas was a real idiot harping on about Balotelli and making really ridiculous comments. Good on Ballack and Rossi especially for not entertaining him. Torres throw way one setta goal Balotelli messed up once and Lalas saying he woulda 'jack him up' in the dressing room? As Rossie say Balo did a lot during the match.

I doh even know why men letting Lalas rile dem up. Dat fella swear he's some kinda expert... yesterday I watching de broadcast and he steady keep interrupting Ballack.  De Rossi on de set was a waste today, he catatonic as doh Robin Givens slip him something.  Agree with you that they both did well to tune out Lalas.

Yeah Rossi wasn't the most verbose...or articulate. He looked kind of sour. Maybe he was totin cos he couldn't play for Italy. Lol

Dem yanks vex bc di rossi blank them and chose italy instead, ah sure they never forgive him for that.

Anyone watch how Cassano play with Ballo as opposed to how he play with DiNatale? Did not like it.

Lalas wid he over-rated ass always talking a setta shyte. He wish he had half as much talent as Balo. But anyway, Balotelli should have been more sinister with that ball in de box dey, especially since he work so hard to win it.

[palos]

I hope PSG's Jeremy Menez gets to play for France.  If he does, we in for a treat.  France really has some quite thrilling players:  Menez, Ben Arfa, Valbuena, M'Villa, Gourcuff, Ribery, Remy, Nasri.  If they can get it together....TROUBLE.

France is my "dark horse" for the tournament.

For the most part commentators have placed a bullseye on Mario Balotelli and that's just how it is.  Is not fair and anything remotely negative he does will be blown up to excessive proportions.

He's done his part to bring SOME of that onto himself....but these guys go way overboard with the criticism.  Maybe because they know that anything named or remotely connected with Balotelli these days is instant news.

Really a sad commentary on the media and these guys in particular.

i agree...even in italy successive coaches ent call him up or call him up and ent play him.    i had never back italy before but this year b/c of meh boy balo, cassano and di natale i want dem do something.     

Talking about Balotelli.  What was he trying to do when he had de ball and acres of space??   He shoulda punish Spain at that point.......

Yeah, he stick dey, is almost like he thought he had de world ah time.  Love his intensity to win that ball on de line doh, was almost unbelieveable...

Yeah, he HAD to know the defender was comin' back in he ass, maybe he was thinkin' the defender woulda had to foul him from behind to win de ball, who knows.....he shoulda really take the opportunity to blast dah ball past Casillas in the far post and shut all his critics up fuh a few minutes.

[Toppa]

Germany.

Hmmmmmm......so how did that internal conflict work out yesterday, watchin' them shut down your RM tooth fairy? 

[triniairman]

It eh have another channel i could watch these euros, bc i real fackin fed up wid these bias racist arse yanks. 

listen tuh the two hamburger eating fackin yankees picking on balotteli like he deliberately throw away a goal, like balotelli is the first footballer to bang the ground on ah miss opportunity. and the worst part, here the big stinkin sh!t snake macomareman lalas saying that "not in a million yrs would he ever forget what balo did" and what he woulda do if they were team mates, good fuh balack and di rossi that they did not entertain them!

on the other hand , torres missed three one on one chances and all bullerman lalas could say was "poor guy, that must be hard on his confidence", i tell you, these fackin stinkin american white boys does real infuriate me to the limit and beyond wid their closet racist behavior, just wish i didn't have to hear them comment on the game of football, since the only people they does big up is their basic rough house fundamental unskillful players (dempsey and big head donovan).

BTW, that yellow card on balo was cow Bologna! that ref net ah fackin bull pestle in he clart!  i wish balotelli win player of the tourney, let them eat they fackin dirty dog heart out!

We should all write ESPN and complain about his bias ass...Can't stand his non talented commentating ass!!

[Bakes]

Yeah Rossi wasn't the most verbose...or articulate. He looked kind of sour. Maybe he was totin cos he couldn't play for Italy. Lol

Haha... good point, he probably mad he get drop and have tuh suffer thru Lal-ass. Besides, of course he not in de studio for his ability, but rather because he was born in NJ.

I eh no fan of French football, but ah hope dey give England 2 or 3.....

  dey never used to complain 'bout de heat when they was runnin' roung de planet, colonizing all dem hot-ass countries aroung the world, either.

Have to give credit credit for going with Oxlade-Chamberlain instead of Downing. He still have the “Walcotts” about him and he might do nothing all game but at least he could give yuh hope of doing something spectacular. With Downing yuh know yuh getting shit whole game through.

France well favourites for this one but England will at least look like they have a plan even if it is to just defend. Expect to see Terry and Cole throwing they body all over the floor as usual.

Backing Welbeck to show his class though. That fella have the makings of a top well-rounded forward

[Peong]

Allez Les Bleus!

[JDB]

That was such a confusing play by Balotelli. We does rightly  knock KJ for his lack of effort but when yuh watch Balotelli he real similar. He is not about hustling and you will never see him busting a lung to gamble on a ball reaching the far post. Economy of motion is the name of the game with Balotelli. Even when he shooting at goal is more of a pass to the corner than a bullet. Very graceful player and a great finisher.

On that play I was surprised to see him put in the hustle to pick Ramos’ pocket and after he do all that hard-work is like he decide to go into slow-motion
