And the tears are dripping out of ye, tears that Andy Carroll was born in a stable in Bethlehem (Tyneside) and not in Belfast. I'm sorry, I wish we could all share in His love, but you'll have to take that up with FIFA. Maybe if Kagawa sells enough shirts in Japan United can stump up a £60m bid for his right buttock.
This would all make sense if Andy Carroll wasn't a big talentless donkey.
smurf your Wayne Rooney, I've a horse up front.
smurf your Danny Welbeck, I have a horse up front.
And smurf your Ashley Young, I've a horse up front.
In fact, for your benefit, I have created a simulation on FIFA 12 of Andy Carroll scoring his 45th goal of the season as Liverpool smash Man United 6-0.
(SPOILER)
This is the real reason why your fields of athenry are lonely. BECAUSE ANDY HAS EATEN YOU ALL. WAY-AY BIG ANDY MON.
That gif is too flattering. That horse manages to stay on the ball for at least a moment.

If this doeasnt become a Kop Anthem next season there is somply no justice in the world.
This game has got worse (and more unpleasant) the longer it's gone on. Neither team having effective strikers (or indeed any strikers) hasn't helped. Germany v Greece apart, the goals have dried up so far in the knockout stage, very disappointing.
EDIT: Ronaldo losing? Maybe the evening wasn't so bad after all.

Only bothered to watch the shootout. Two goalless draws in a row - and Euro 2012 was doing so well!
It's been going downhill since all the idiot papers starting running 'best tournament ever?' articles at the end of the second round of group matches. Italy v Germany can often be relied upon to be a great game though...right? Right?!

It definitely peaked too soon...
Gutted for Portugal. What on EARTH was Bruno Alves doing taking a penalty? He didn't make one successful pass throughout the game (but a terrific defensive performance) and you expect this guy to slot away a penalty under pressure? It was a certainty he was going to miss. The finger of blame has to go to Ronaldo. He should have taken one of those penalties instead of leaving it to him & waiting until the end.
Please, I want anyone but Spain to win.
Check the poll result.
We all know who's going to win!
So, I've been getting conflicting info here: Does the coach/manager pick the shootout lineup or do the players decide? Likewise, for the order?
I was all kinds of confused when Nani suddenly ran up and took the third spot. And, was it really Ronaldo's call to wait until the 5th shot? Or was it his manager's?
Fully expect Germany - Italy to have goals in it.
Germany - Spain would be a great final, especially with Spain looking mortal, which means Germany or sure, why not, Italy, would be more willing to have a go at it and not just sit back on the counter.
Take care all.
Basically people are disagreeing whether it was Ronaldo who wanted to go last, or the manager who wanted that. Of course we'll probably never know, and personal opinions with a player like Ronaldo always come into play - people who don't much like Ronaldo are likely to think the former was true and vice versa.
