quite funny listening to adrian durham saying the performance was alright and does not get all the 'buzz'
he made a good point that Rooney has such a grip on the squad.
he was playing pretty poorly yet stayed on. Also, that Lambert NOT lallana should have came on for sturridge
I also agreed with him that our preparations must not have been right with a few players going down with cramp, yet the older italians were fine.
also, how on earth did we AGAIN, allow Pirlo to stroll around the pitch like he owned it. Not as if we were not warned
I think the issue down our left was alarming. It was happening ALL game and they finally scored from it in the 2nd half.
Thought Sterling, Sturridge, Barkley were good. Rooney, Gerrard and baines were crap
interesting thought, a few taters on the radio said that Shaw would have been the better defender against italy given the lack of cover from our midfield. They noticed that baines tucked in far too much and did not have the pace to intercept their attackers until it was too late
