World Cup Qualifiers + Friendlies | November 2017

Bellotti the secret weapon for Ventura, Insigne meanwhile...
 
A world cup without Italy just isn't right. Hope they can bring this back.
 
I've watched none of the match but looking at the subs bench could italy not set up a bit differently. Looks like thry've got a decent attack just sat there doing nothing...
 
Italy's wingbacks are going to cost them here. The amount of time and space Darmian and Candreva are getting but yet wasting the opportunity is shocking. I think Sweden are happy to let them have the ball as they aren't doing anything with it, just awful awful crosses or decision making.
 
It ain't wum'ing, it's simply not being good enough and I'm pointing out stupid comments sent to me. That's why I'm responding to you too. If Republic of Ireland don't go through because they don't score, it will be the same. I couldn't find a feck, it's all about United for me. It's funny you chatting about wum'ing and comment on a username, don't be posting me rubbish again.

Or else what? Not that I really plan on it, this being so entertaining & all.
 
:rolleyes: Why does this Italy team deserve it?

Because Italy is a team you want to see at a world cup. Giant killings are for during the tournament, not qualifying. And I say this as a fan of one of the smallest nations to ever qualify for a world cup.
 
I love the fact that the Italians, of all people!, are acting tough, complaining to the referee and looking at the Swedes like they’re diving around. Definition of irony right there.... (not that I don’t love everything Italian and Italy itself)...
 
Sweden need to stop hoofing the ball, they're just giving the ball away and putting this pressure onto themselves.
 
These yellow cards for Sweden might help Italy get the breakthrough. Sweden will have to be more carful.
