Trappatoni:
"InΒ Italy, we have a simple phrase: 'the ball is round.' With a little bit of fantasy, and sometimes a small mistake, it makes us believe in little things".
Bilic:
"I follow the Irish team and I know everything about them. Their football is simple to analyse and I don't think there's any way they can surprise us. On the other hand, I don't think we can surprise them either. We have consistently been in the top 10 teams in the world, which is phenomenal for our country. We have missed only two tournaments, we are proud of this and we are respected, our opponents are sometimes shocked at how a small country we are."
Decent chance of a draw here?
To win we're going to need to convert a set-piece I reckon.
Can't wait for this, can't stay still π
