    I love Italia! Forza!
    Uh oh VAR

    The issue is never the issue; the issue is always the revolution.

    The Entryism process: 1) Demand access; 2) Demand accommodation; 3) Demand a seat at the table; 4) Demand to run the table; 5) Demand to run the institution; 6) Run the institution to produce more activists and policy until they run it into the ground.

    That must be some mistake, surely Chiellini is impervious to physical pain.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,707 ✭✭✭Bobblehats


    I hope the Swiss do these cùnts proper


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,377 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    Great goal there from Gorgonzola.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,707 ✭✭✭Bobblehats


    /**** it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,620 ✭✭✭AllGunsBlazing


    that was a good'un


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,707 ✭✭✭Bobblehats


    What hope for a Swiss result?

    These boys look really assured. Indeed you might call them theee Assuri…

    Could Italy be about to do the coveted Eurovision / European championships double?

    Depends how badly Chiellini is injured, but there's a chance he'll be out for the tournament, which could be a huge loss.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,841 ✭✭✭Did you smash it

    The present Italian squad has players of a much lower profile than the noughties and nineties. They have a shot but be surprised if they went all the way.

    The swish sound of the net there was so satisfying.

    At some point they will lose home advantage...

    If Italy do have a weakness it's a ponderousness with their final ball at times. They get into a lot of good positions and then can seem casual.
