Hart - dodgy
Johnson - at fault for second goal
Cahill - wasn't helped with second goal
Jagielka - decent
Baines - missing too many times
Gerrard - I thought it was Lampard's fault that he couldn't do it for England?
Henderson - non-existent
Sterling - Excellent
Rooney - Made the goal and did nothing else
Welbeck - Decent game
Sturridge - Shame he had to go off; looked promising before that
Barkley - Had bright spells
Wilshere - As non-existent as Henderson
Lallana - Didn't do much

Even though we lost I enjoyed our performance strangely enough.

agahahaahhhhhaggggGGGGGGHHH!!!

*Sighs*

Come back to England Balo.

Balotelli doing a Walcott there!

So frustrating.

Nothing but a broken ankle.

Good, we lost.

Italy deserved their win, but we had our chances and didn't play too badly.

Well I won my bet...

England did show some spark but they need to do some work to survive.

Tough for us to qualify now

Good game, glad Italy won. Pirlo was awesome.

Fair result but plenty still to play for.

Same. I feel just like I did about Liverpool losing the league.. the future is bright and promising.

Well it was always a tough opener.

A much better game than I thought it was going to be.

Beaten, probably going out but hugely encouraged by that game. Well done Roy and well done England.

Lallana, Wilshire and Barkley did nothing once on the pitch, let's start them next time huh?

Got to be better than that Rooney? According to many here.

Don't even think about it!

Woy is still in a shirt and tie. It is roasting.

Italy won. What a surprise. I knew England wouldn't win!

Agreed.

Rooney, Johnson and Baines were very poor indeed.

In a points system we would have got more for the all out defence draw in Euro 2012 than the 'push forward and forget defending' approach tonight.

It's more clueless bile than criticism.
