Doesn't it make your blood boil to see these teams advance that clearly have less talent than Italy? What has become of our once great football kingdom. Cassano could be Rooney if stupid Trap and his teammates would give him the chance. I still think he is a better all-around player and would make Rooney fall on his bum if they played some one-on-one soccer.
Yes, it does. But sometimes talent alone is not enough. Our side is the poster child for that pearl of wisdom.
