Right lads

It's almost here, so how do we see it going? Who is going to win and why.
Me first because it's my post..
I think it will end 1-1 after 90 minutes.
1-1 aet.
We win on penalties.
Two things to mention, there's a reason I never bet on football, and I won't be watching the penalties.
I'm not clever enough to give a tactical insight, I leave that to others.
But I think Italie alround play is slightly better than ours, but we have some dangerous forwards, and strength on the bench.
I really hope we do it, we have a likeable team and manager, determination, and it's about time we won something.
So Come on England

It’s not a UTD thing, but I thought, maybe Starting with Rashford and Sterling on the flanks, to go for a counter attacking style. Cos I think the Italians will have more possession.
However, not gonna question Gareth.
I think Italy will win, but, home advantage cannot be ruled out. England have got better as it’s gone along, and have controlled all their matches.

If Eng are gonna win, then it has to be Penalties innit.
Don’t expect more than 3 goals. So 2-1 Italy in the 90.
But come on England!!! Bring it home!!!

With England's history at penalty shoot-outs I would think that's the last thing they want.

We will win 2-0.

Kane and Rashford (yes, Marcus will come off the bench to seal the win by scoring his first of the tournament)

Plumpy you need to visit a bookmakers before 8.00pm with insight like this

I'm speaking from the heart there, RB! Head is all over the shop though!

Actually I'm with Plump. One little incident, slice of luck
mistake can settle it. That's why I've gone for penalties, I think it's so close

I bet on England, so they are probably going to lose.

Sorry.

I think a 1-1 and going all the way is very possible. There will be very little between the two sides

and the last game didn’t help make us be seen as fair players with diving.

…..

Compared to who?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, compared to Italy as they are who we are playing…
There has been a narrative in European media over the last few days that we are not honest winners with diving and laser pointing. The FA was fined for the laser and booing over Denmark’s national anthem I believe.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you actually handing to moral high ground to Italian football? Where have you been for forty years?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Certainly not, I was just answering VC regarding a comparison and as we are only playing Italy I said them - it couldn’t be anyone else.
