Oh no i can't wait for that game, i wish it was them in the Wc 2010 final aswell, i prefer the Germans way over Spain. imo the best team in europe with us.
Spain better then both of you, Germany impressed in WC, until they faced spain, then they got a lesson.

Have you seen how Sneijder has been playing for us? Incredible vision and passing.
While everyone was getting off to Elia's assist, I was getting excited over the influence Sneijder had in both goals for the Netherlands. He really does have a talent for passing to someone running into a space.

Beating tiny nations 1-0 is anything but impressive
Doesnt have to be super impressive, but being one of first 3 to qualify in qualifiers, while only conceading 1 goal, shows the opposite of sucking. Getting your results efficiently and with little fuss in most games, shows they dont suck. As I said, this is 2011, not 2010.

The only half good team in their group is Serbia, and even they have lost a lot of their aura these days. Euro next year will prove a lot.

I'm sure if Italy get far enough in the Euro's next year they'll be shown what an average outfit they currently are. Holland, Germany, Spain will all beat them and I'd say France and England would give them a game, the latter two being joke outfits so far aswell.
Oh, you said 'current'. Forgive me for assuming that this meant September 2011.

Fear not, proud Dutchman, this was meant for the ambiguously sarcastic section. Although I wouldn't judge teams just on a head to head encounter anyway.

    Holland is far from the best team in the world right now.
    we will see
    brazil isn't the same as they used to be as a kid i feared the brazil with rivaldo, ronaldo, dunga, taffereal and so on. now not at all their best player is a diving neymar
    argentina has a jokers defence and isn't a team at all

    spain - isn't the same as in 2010 with all the drama what happened around the clasico. that has certainly influence at the nt team
    germany - same level as Nt
    we are really good sneijder at merda :inter: sneijder in nt team :tuttosport:

    Guys (& Gals), please stop it already with these discussions. There's a whole thread dedicated to this nonsense.


    Anyway: Morocco NT > the rest.

    Case closed.

    Mainly because when we sign a Winger it's always we should of kept Giovinco, he's no better than Giovinco etc.

    It's others who bring Giovinco to this thread, it's the first time I've compared the two.
    20 pounds Giovinco has a better season statistically

    Nah it's more sensible to stick up for Pepe after all the great things he did for us right?
    Fuck off, Elia gave plenty of assist in the Bundesliga to prove himself there.
    yeah, 7 goals and 10 assists (in the league) since season 2009/10 (with hamburg) by elia is way better than pepes 12 goals and 5 assists in the same frame of time, right ?

    you are talking out of your ass right now and only because you switched habbit of jerking of to black males now, does not change the fact, that you can not back your silly fapping/jerking with facts

    Not suprising tbh he is young and needs the coach trust.
    yeah, like giovinco is still young, right ?

    how can one say "he needs the coaches trust" if the player did not earn it, by being a balotelli arsehole without having the skill+endproduct to back it up

    Italy is miles ahead of where they were last year, but they still have many miles to go before they can seriously compete with the Netherlands and Spain.

    They would have a very hard time with netherlands, mainly because of one thing.

    Pace. And I'm not talking about straight line pace either, although they would lose to most of the players on the Netherlands if it were a foot race.

    I'm talking about coutner attacking pace, especially with players such as Sneijder who is as good as anyone at playing a long ball over the opposition's defense.


    And this is coming from one of the biggest Italy supporters here.

    Oh, and stop bringing Giovinco into every damn thread.
