Nasri goonin ? Did he said "STFU" to english bench ? Marseille swag !!

 

[Microfracture]

Was just about to say France wouldn't be able to sit outside the 18 and expect to get a shot off, then boom 1-1

 

[Roaden Polynice]

Nasri, great goal. Could still really be useful at Arsenal

oh man..french is looking strong on the run.

Balo is more talented but Welbeck play's that center forward role so well and just is better mentally. Its why I was like at the Andy Carroll to start campaign. Welbeck can do the big man role but can get behind the defense. Also much better technically. Woulda been shame to start that donkey Carroll, wouldnt have this magnificent performance by him.

He really isn't. What exactly does Balotelli do? His link-up play is garbage, he can't run and he can't create. All he can do is shoot and even that deserted him yesterday and he bottled it. Guy is and it's time to be honest.

He just isn't more talented, though. He's bigger, strong, and a better ball winner but that's it. Danny is just a better player up and down. Balo has never looked as good as Danny has this past season. The Balo thing is really based on what people think he could be and not what he actually is. Danny and Cassano would've run lawless on Spain yesterday.

Balo is technically better. Better finisher. Better at set pieces. As good in the air and as fast.


But if IM taking a player, I want Welbeck because he has the right mental and football IQ, and is willing to do a lot of the donkey work which Balotelli is immune too.



Cabaye is on hatchet man duties today.

@ french wingers consistently getting into space on the wing, and NO ONE in the middle

Have you seen some of Welbeck's link-up play and goals? Balo couldn't do that stuff in his wildest dreams.

 

[Sam Peel]

He needs to cut that shyt off.

Balo is a better ball striker and has a better first touch and control.

there was a ball yesterday where Balotelli kept it in play with the bottom of his boot. I like Welbeck a lot more, but I think Balotelli has a bit more talent.



Also, Ireland's crowd>>>>>>>England's, altho I read that no instruments were allowed for the match today. England crowd got found out?
