you mean Klose, Podolski aren't German citizens? or they weren't even born there?
Klose and Podolski were both born in Poland. Gotta love the irony in that.

I think England deserve credit. When they call themselves the England national team it's because their players are actually born in England. Holland, France, Germany and many others can't say the same.

Yeah, Camo is just the one exception.

Holland have a lot of players from little islands, France have a lot of Africans, and Germany have some of everything. Even Poland had a Brazilian playing for them today.

Podolsky moved to Germany when he was two and that makes him more of a German than Mastroeni an American, who moved to the US when he was four.

I don't care where people play, but rather care about how fans are hypocritical about the whole issue. Germans are much better with this issue than Italian fans it seems.

I don't see any reason at all why should I cheer for Sweden. It amuses me when they fail after reading their English-like tabloids. You talk as if you've never read Aftonbladet and Espressen.
I read Aftonbladet all the time but I really don't see the connection between support for the Swedish NT and the gossip in the papers.
