Payback time

[The Bergamister]

This time the bloody french won't be cheating their way to victory in the final, we should have won it 4 years ago. To much bloody overtime. First they are going to get a good beating from the English because France is totally underestimating them. They think oh we won the EPL unbeaten so England will not be a problem...

So the will finish second in their group and go out against Portugal or Spain. Isn't that wonderfull?

Forza Italia and go England (at least Sunday)

haha, now that is the ultimate insult to Englih fans. The best players in the Premiership are French, then they have even better players in foreign countries that make the whole French team. Which means that France are going to kill England, they will beat them, just like they beat them so many years ago. "Was it the normans"? Or something like that? English is full of French words.

I was looking a replays of the Euro 2000 and you know what struck me as odd?

The two goals that France scored at the end came because of errors on the right byline. First Pannucci got schooled and then on the next one Nesta got caught out becuase he didnt want to allow Panucci to make the same mistake.

Now why is this so interesting. Well lets see who is still on the right, Panucci again!! For god sake I am getting a bad feeling about this France's left side is immacualte with Henry backed up by Pires. Those two players know each other inside out and have a better understanding now than before. Hopefully Panucci has matured enough to not make the same mistakes but Italy's right side is no better than it was last time around.

Only Bobo, DP and Totti with little Roman will save us another embarrassment. I am hoping something will get Vieri pissed off enough that all he can think about is smashing balls into the back of the net. An angry Bobo is the best Bobo.

Forza Azzurri!!!!!

No, you're not. I got you.
Well you seem to have a lot of grudges towards us amico mio, but i think that the overtime issue can be explained by the fact that there was a break because OF Toldo's bleeding and also the fact that there have been substitutions. You must add 30 seconds for each substitutions.
Wiltord, Pires, Trezeguet went in, + probably one or 2 italians + Toldo's bleeding = 4 minutes of extra-time.

If that can make you feel better, i don't think France can win Euro 2004, really.
If i had money to bet, i'd put it on Italy.
And i'm being serious.

You must understand Golden ball that loosing because of a goal made just one second before the final whistle is the most devastating thing ever. It is like pulling a girl in the bar, snogging her and then she invites you over to her place gets undressed and then when you are about to get in there, your best mate walks in and gets to shag her senseless.

And even when you have finally lost that feeling slightly, they show it over and over again on the TV because the tournament is going to get going again soon.

That is why I dislike the french, not because of who they are because I like Trez at my favourite club Juventus, but the French national team may be shot for all I care.

But thanks for the moral support anyway

I think i can understand the feeling, but come on, you've had countless glory moments both with country and clubs.
Allow us to have a taste of power a little bit, even if i know, we stole the cup from your hands.
