I wish there was a way I could block your posts from now on. Thanks for wasting my time reading the nothing you wrote.
Im gonna stop visiting this thread from now on like I should with this whole site.
And on a more serious note, the fact that you are only talking about that exact type of playmakers is exactly the limitation of Pirlo. The way he plays now is really the only way he CAN, given his current age. If you look at players like for instance Sneijder, Ozil and Iniesta, if you tie them down to the playing style Pirlo is playing, they will be at least just as good. But because their reportoire is MUCH wider they play a different type of game which allows them to make an even bigger impact on the game.
There are at least a dozen playmakers who play a different type of style than Pirlo, but who are much better in pretty much any aspect of the game apart from maybe kicking technique where they are close.
And playing football on semi-pro level in Canada, that must be the same as playing semi-pro ice hockey over here. "Hey you can kick the ball, awesoooooooome!" + Show Spoiler +

Damn, Netherlands now needs to beat Portugal and hope for a Denmark win over Germany. Hard to see the latter happening.

lol dude. Netherlands need Germany to beat Denmark, not the opposite. Now Germany has 6pts, Portugal and Denmark have 3pts and Netherlands has 0 so they only get a chance if they win and Germany beats Denmark and I believe Netherlands need to beat by 2 goal difference at least but I am not 100% sure on that.

Yes, beating Portugal by one goal is not good enough for Holland, since they will have a 2:3 goal difference, while Portugal will end the group phase with a 3:4 difference.
My predictions for today:
Italy 1:1 Croatia
Spain 2:0 Ireland

Italy : Croatia could go either way tbh and i think there will be a winner for sure in the match
Spain 3:0 if they actually start with Pedro or Llorente in the centre otherwise -> fire Del Boske
I still cant comprehend why wouldnt he even take Soldado in the group for the Euro ... and he took Torres ?! True Torres did a lot for the winning of both previous Euro/World Cup but everyone knows he is in a really bad shape last 2 seasons
P.S. I also dont understand why did Ibrahimovic had to defend Schevchenko during that match ? Sweden's centre has to defend vs Ukraine's center wtf?! What's the defender's job then ? I really dont understand such major mistakes in tactics .. Id get it if he had to protect someone from Ukraine's defense who was there just for the corner's .. that would make sense but otherwise dafuq?
Btw Netherlands is never gonna win a thing with Robben in the team ... He is like the symbol for bad luck ...

You are right, also on a side note Germany can still get knocked out if Portugal beats Netherlands and Denmark beats Germany

Your goal difference thing is wrong because if there is a tie with Netherlands, Denmark and Portugal their results vs Germany won't count, same if Netherlands ends with 0 and the rest with 6 points their results vs Netherlands won't count towards goal difference

Spain's demolition mode was on today. On the other hand, they made two mis-kicks in the defense line, which could have ended up as goals for Ireland. They do that against a better team and Spain may not get away with that.
