[EU] The U-21 European Championship (33 Viewers)
- Thread starter JCK

Italy are better than Germany for me; one World Cup counts for a lot. Some teams have only ever won one World Cup (England 
), whereas others have been unfortunate not to (Holland). I have never liked the way the Germans play football. They lack style. Pragmatic, efficient, dynamic? Yes! Style and Panache? Hell no!
Italy vs Sweden should have been the Euro U-21 Final. Italy completely dominated Germany in the semis; in fact the Germans are lucky to even be in the Euros, after the French chocked in their playoff match.

Listen here, mother fucker, if the players who were born in Germany had played for them, then both Kovac brother, both Altintop brothers, and Nuri Sahin would all play for the German NT, and those are just the ones off the top of my head. So chill out.
Not to the English it wasn't, not by a mile.
-Stuart Pierce before the game " Losing the final would be a failure".
-Whoever the fucktard that was with Martin Tyler commentating on the Sweden game (in the first half), its almost done and dusted then we should stroll through the final since we played the germans with our reserves and drew. Then going on mentioning how their midfield's EPL experience will give them edge and bla bla bla.
- Skysports had them in their front page with articles all mentioning how good they were and superior to numerous teams, but now NOTHING!.
Well its sweet beating those idiots in this fashion at any level.
Hummels was great along with Ozil of course and Khdeira. But the central midfield players completely dominated the English and didn't give them a sniff. Also the finishing was very good especially from Wagner, who at first glance looks like someone with the skill level of an cockroach.
Also spare a thought for the coach Hrubesch who only took over as temporary coach.

fuck germany.
but it's so true, you can NEVER count them out, no matter how weak their squad. strong mentality and discipline count for a lot. would have been a better final had England had a full-strength team, but Germany played very well. Italy did dominate them in the semi-final, no doubt about that, but Germany counter very well, and they took their chance.
