The Final: England v Italy predictions

Post by Dunners »

I just can't see us beating the Italians. And if they're going to win, I'd rather it happen in normal time and spare us the stress of daring to hope.

2 - 0 to the Azzurri.

England 1. Italy 2. Mum is Palmina Maria Trofimena Zenone, dad is Bob..I don’t care who wins. Actually, I don’t think I could handle England winning.

I think they are too good for us but Spain are the most similar team to us they played and they struggled for long periods.

Also got a feeling they may get someone sent off

But gonna go 2-1 Italy. England take an early lead but get pegged back just before half time and Italy break our hearts a few mins from the end.

We boo their national anthem and our players taking the knee mercilessly.

Tight, dour game for 55 mins until their little sh*t in the middle of the pitch gets one of ours sent off and they wind up comfortable 2-0 winners.

The bloke sent off is hung out to dry in the press for the next 3 months. Possibly longer if it’s Sterling.

I reckon it will be Grealish, not long after he comes on as a sub in the 70th minute.

Obviously want England to win, but I don't think I'm going to be devastated if they lose. Not sure why that is.

Past caring after all the nonsense everywhere you look and listen.

Probably Italy 1-0, not sure I can stand the thought of England winning and all that would entail.

That's what I'm scared about because we don't do penalties . If we're to lose I'd rather it was in normal time . My head is telling me 2-1 to Italy but I'm praying it's 2-1 to England .

Same really. Watching England play in a final is actually enough for me. Winning would be great but not the end of the world.

Helpful tip #1

A "Final" is what happens to your team if they progress all the way through a tournament. You may be unaware of this.

Thankfully my beta-blockers will help.

Heart says: England
Brain says: Italy

So, ‘England by 2-1, with gallons of luck!’

Ex Os player Kane to rule supreme!

I admit, I have been pointing out to the family that Harry Kane is ex-orient every time he’s been on the box. They’re sick to death of it now. I wonder if it’s possible to create an England XI with Orient connections (however tenuous).

I can think of Peter Shilton, Alvin Martin, Ray Wilkins as well as Harry, for starters

Southgate gets more and more like Alf Ramsey.

1-1.

Penalties....
