Zebina wasnt too bad, but my only concern was that he is a bit too mistake prone to play CB. Also Zebina played right hand side of CB instead of tradition CB role. Its vastly different playing 3 back from 4 back system. In back four, two CB has to possess oustanding understanding of each other's...

I thought it was Zanchi, but I might be wrong. I know Turk will disagree, but Totti individual wise better than Del Piero. Loyalty aside, I don't know why he even bothers to play for Roma. That Sensi family is clueless in terms of managing a good FC. A man like Moggi would have given him 7-8...

Well I personally don't know much about Meira. All I have seen from him is (1) Olympics 2004 - uh, oh, lets not get in there. Since current Iraqi NT absolutely raped that Portuguese defence. But if I recall correctly Meira played DM in that tournament. (2) WC 2006, for which he was...

I ignored Maldini since IMO he is really a player of same era with Roby. But if somebody gave me a list of American style draft picks, and give me choice pick to choose, and that I have to win the league that year, well I have no doubt that I will choose Totti over Canna, Buffon and Del...

Corrini is terrific little veteran, but as Denco said he is a distributer not a ball winner. Terlizzi is as bad defender as I can remember, who happens to score every now and then. Zaccardo may look dumb, and do make dumb plays every so often, but he is way better than Terlizzi IMO. For me...

Totti played a grand total of 50 games for Roma this season. 35 games for Serie A, 6 for Coppa Italia, and 9 for Roma: and scored 32 goals in the process. If you take out those meaningless Coppa Italia games, Totti scored 30 goals in 44 games. I'll advise to Totti, injury or not, he should keep...

:D

Given that Ale normally misses 1/4 of season through injury, I don't see why there won't be enough playing time for Nedved, Del Piero and VDV. I think VDV can rotate between midfield and attack. After all, his game/goal ratio is nearly 2/1 in Germany. Given the quality of the league, and...

Denco has a good point though. This board is way too harsh on Barzagli. As a person who has seen a few Palermo matches last year, not even Canna or even Nesta would have looked good in that pathetic Palermo defence. I have said numerous times, but their holding midfielder was freaking Guana...

Cant wait for the rematch of WC. That really was gut-wrenching defeat. If Konno Yasuyuki had the brain to (1) dive - for which he was clearly fouled, and (2) foul opposition to stop the play, the result could have changed dramatically. I feel we will beat Austrailia. Its a destiny.

Man those Koreans sneak through by the kind of their teath. Go Uzbek, and knock China out so that Iran can take their business against Korea as they always do.:D

Alberto Aquilani of Roma is a screamer. And Rossina is one heck of talent. These boys are going to be seriously good. Going forward is last of Italian's mind. Totti, we know, you are good, but its not like Italia cant do anything without him.

Capello father figure and Totti as a role model? :rofl2: That is the funniest shit I have heard in years.

Totti's foot is probably smarter than his brain.

:D Indonesian support has been fantastic. They would have already qualified had it not been for a touch group. Having said that, I think Indonesia will get a result against Korea. I bet your coach would be salvating at the prospect of pressing those Korean midfield, with highly pumped up...

FT Bahrain2 Korea 1 I don't think Korea can complain about the result. It was messy game, and I don't think neither of them played particuarly well (at least when Bahrain almost knocked us out 4 years ago, they played good football). But this Korean team is just plain shit. The reason they...

:rofl: Korea is self-destructing. I don't know what they coach has been telling, but I am sure passing back to defenders wasn't on his trainig menu. Their 3 midfielders, Jungwoo, Ho, and that No.14 are shit.

Korea :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2: They are conceding most stupid goals you can think of. Its like the entire team has been bought off by betting companies.:D Beside that their 2 center midfielders are useless. They are so clueless when they get the ball, they look to pass ball to...

Final score 2:2 There was no way China could have pressed like they did in first half. Its a pattern of the tournament. A fitnesss based team that builds on athleticism and pressing are bound to tire up in the second half because the climate is just impossible to play European style game...

Iran's keeper is having a mare. Thanks to him China is leading 2:1. First freekick was a shocker. Having said that China more than deserved their lead. They pressed hard, and kept tempo fast in contrast to Iran, and organised their defence well. Jandi (Spelling?)`s freekick was a screamer...
