alstone 374 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Lets be honest, Italy are pretty pishThey usually do well at the world cup though, they are always tactically sound especially strong defensively and will have a flare player or two. I'm not sure what England were expecting if they're going to do well they're going to have to win tough games, they can get out this group most definitely Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 It's hardly ideal.Most teams will have to travel about. The next 2 games are reasonably close to england base.They will have beds, PlayStation's, TV's etc on the plane. Not as if they will all be squashed up in an economy class flight. Trying to use that as an excuse is poor IMO. A Coach from Newcastle to Portsmouth probably takes longer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
