Group A: Turkey, Italy, Wales, Switzerland.

Mancini looks like he wants a Carlo-sized plate of pasta. He's thin as a rake.

 

[Toffeeslam]

Can’t quite figure out if Italy are that good or Turkey are that bad

This Italian team is very well organised though

Cenk Tosun would be playing for Turkey if he was fit.

That's all you need to know about Turkey.

Bit of both I think, first knock out should be a fascinating watch.

In the big picture, very big for Wales.

But also your teams likely to finish 3rd, Scotland, Austria, Finland… the heavier the defeat, if Turkey finish 3rd, goal difference could kill them here.

It'll be tough to say anything about Italy in this group with it being three home games against teams they're well better than. Unless they lose.

Italy are a much busier and hard-working outfit than previous incarnations.

Italy look good. Not great, but good.
Turkey have defied all expectation, absolutely shambolic, absolutely no game plan. Came for a 0-0 and have no plan B. Wales and Switzerland must be loving seeing this.

Still think the likes of Portugal are a step above.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Turks look like they'll be well beaten

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Italy need to be sharper and more clinical up top, but they've played well overall

So, football...

Bit crap these days really isn't it?

I hate the fact that Italy are in their away kit for no reason, takes away from the spectacle. Turkey's negativity would make Allardyce blush and Italy are just passing it around and around and around.

Its technically proficient but it lacks any real charm. The world needs more mavericks.

I thought that about the kit but I think Italy are officially the away team.

Still there home kit is blue and shouldn’t clash with Turkey’s red.

unless you watching in black and white

Yeah they are, it's not that though, there is no colour clash and black and white tellys are not a thing these days. I want to see Italy in blue, Netherlands in Orange etc. Doesn't make a huge difference if they game is good of course but I am a big believer in the colours of football.

Isn’t this being played in Italy????
