  1. Gavranovic is living offside since he came on
  2. Can't deal with Embolo at all. Poor by Mbabu
  3. Absolute stonewall penalty that for Switzerland. Ridiculous defending by Davies
  4. An international tournament doesn't really start until Seferovic misses a sitter.
  5. Wales fulfilling the Ireland ultra negative role in the tournament
  6. Switzerland much better team but think they'll find it hard to break them down
  7. Italy are generally very good in Euros recently despite their World Cup struggles since 2006
  8. He did call us a "wee club in the North East" in his latter years mind
  9. That interview on the pitch where he's fuming after beating Rangers in the Cup Final is incredible
  10. It doesn't have any relevance to the game. What you did in the 210 minutes before it has nothing to do with a penalty shoot out.
  11. I was talking about penalty shoot outs, which don't have any relevance to the game. Keep up
  12. I never said it wasn't a natural part of the game. Keep up
  13. I never said to scrap penalties for fouls in the box, though from memory that penalty was for a dive anyway. Keep up
  14. I didn't mean an actual free kick, I meant as in nobody is challenging you. A penalty is scored 80% of the time or whatever, a free kick is scored, maybe 5% of the time, or less? There's skill involved in scoring a free kick and there are more players in the way and its further out. I'm not sure if it was a pisstake earlier but I'd actually much prefer the hockey style run from the halfway line penalties as they have more skill involved by both the taker and keeper.
  15. Great chance for Atletico to become top dogs over the next few years
  16. It's just a free kick at goal from 11 yards. It's a shite way of deciding a game. I'd also exclude penalty goals from the goal totals for top scorer winners
  17. One side goes through anyway though, it's just based on penalties which have no relevance to the game of football rather than something which was in the control of the two teams over the two legs
  18. Penalties are crap though. I actually think away goals is fairer than penalties
