Regardless of how jammy a couple of their goals were, they were far better than us and you felt they could have stepped it up and scored more if required. Really not looking forward to the Spain game, could be a long night. Playing 5 in midfield is a must

2 players offside when the initial ball was played in(you could argue they weren't interfering with play though) and Ward was fouled as he tried to clear the ball.
Not making excuses btw, we still wouldn't have won, if the game was still going on we wouldn't have scored.

Yeah, any illusions about the Italians not being up to it were well and truly shattered.

Yeah, any illusions that Trappatonni is capable of getting us to play they way we know they can - i.e VS FRANCE in Paris November 2009 second half ( players played their way not his ) were well and truly shattered.

Did anyone have any illusions that we were suddenly going to start playing like Spain??

If it was mick mc carthy in charge yesterday would of been different result in the end. Also would not of seen Ward on the pitch, Cox would not be brought on to the wing, as much he tries. James Mc Clean for funk sake !!!!!! I have no idea why any of you are surprised, it was always gonna be like this with trappatonni.
Most of that team last night played in PARIS in november 2009, so do not tell me that these group of players cannot pass the ball, play the ball and play decent footy ? We had the french in their own backyard, but for a cheating scumbag's handball we would of been in south africa 2010.
