I agree in an extent, I also find it fasciniting what the Greeks have managed to accomplish with an clearly inferior and less skilled individuals compared to the big boys they've put out (Spain, France, Czech Rep.) and I too admire their never say die attitude and the tactical complexity of...

Perosnaly, for me, it's not that. I dont think it's good for football or the fans that a team that has done nothing but defend during the entire tournament gets to the final. Now instead of seeing and open, epic battle between Portugal and Czech Republic, we're going to see Greece defending...

I can scout other players too stupid :P Yeah, put in a good word for me mate :D

Yeah, there have been some great players in the past. My dad told me about this player in the Yugoslavian league in the 60s, he was known as the best dribbler in the league. One match he dribbled 3 players, stopped in the middle of the pitch, kneeled down, put his foot on the ball and started...

Yeah. Most keepers are used to saving with their hands, and thats great when the ball's going high, or low but a few meters to your side. But when the ball is going low and half a yard from your foot you more often than not you cant save it with your hand, there simply isnt enough time to get...

I quite like curling actually, I watched the WC on TV, it's quite interesting :D I dont know what "nutmegged" means. Dictionary.com doesnt know what it means. Is it even a word Graham, or did you just make it up? :P

Nah, altho I still play football from time to time with my mates, basketball, tennis, etc.

Ah, it's ok. I fvcked up my ankle, strained my ligaments. Luckily tho no permanent damage. Anyways, it's not like I was going to go pro or anything, I was too erratic and inconsistent, absolutely fvcking brilliant one match, and utter shite the next :D

Yeah, I stopped playing 2 years ago. I got injured playing basketball, couldnt train for 6 months and never went back.

Well, yes, I'm a keeper myself (altho I dont play anymore), and I have to admit I put more preferance on reflexes and shot stopping than organising the defence and being part of the team. A good defender can organize the D, but he cant save shots. Anyways, what I've always liked about VDS...

You can add Canizares, Toldo, maybe Peruzzi even to that list.

1. Buffon 2. Casillas 3. Cech 4. Kahn 5. Ovchnykov (that Russian dude) Anyways, maybe I left someone out, it's 2 am and I'm tired :sleepy: Anyways, on his good day he can be excellent, but IMO he's not that reliable, tends to make the occasional blunder or two. remember when he...

Solid, yes. Among Europe's best, I dot think so.

No, not really, Buffon is still better.

FRANCE OUT!!!

Dman, I've done this thread fantastically, just look at the first post :cool:

Than it really is a bad thing :wallbang: Anyways, on topic, Helder Postiga scored for Portugal, it's 1-1. It seems we're up for extra time. SHould be interesting. I want penalties.

Why do I have a feeling that you dont think that's a good thing? ;)

Ah, right, well at least I'm unique. Right, you damn ************************************************* ??? ;)

Dude, what kind of swear word or insult has 14 letters??? :wth: :D
