That's Dzagoev and Lewandowski both off the mark for me then, glad I replaced Eriksen with Dzagoev last minute :D

Bolded all the ones we have the same, and I did have Eriksen too but I ditched him last minute for Dzagoev, very similar indeed :)

Shirokov has been awesome this year.
He actually played in the first game of the Euro'08 also. But Hiddink was experimenting with him as Center Back. That was a MASSIVE failure.

The defending in both games pains me as someone who has played left back or centre defence for 15 years lol, so many shocking basic errors by the full backs in particular.

arsene wenger is an idiot. arshavin thrives in the middle with a free role.

Kerzakov's finishing has been terrible!
I'm drooling at the performance of Shirokov, however. Pilar has been good for the Czechs as well.
Based on the first two games, Russia should win this group and Greece, Poland and Czech Republic will fight it out for 2nd place.

2 of my friends at my work have a bet going on this game, one says Russia win, other says they wont, am absolutely loving the banter but I can only see a Russia win now really.

That should seal it for Russia. Right now, expecting Russia and Poland to go on. Russia's passing has been very impressive, they have potential to really go somewhere.

LOL
Something tells me Pavlyuchenko will start in the 2nd game, not Kerzhakov.

Problem is next round they'll probably be playing Holland or Germany. They do look really good though!

Pav's finish there was great.
Don't sub Dzagoev, he needs the hat trick! :)
