LOL he is playin' against HONDURAS, very low team!:shifty: :tdown:
Not only that but I sometimes get the impression that people didn't follow serie A at all in the last 2 seasons where Sanchez had nothing more than a good month and a half in the end of last season.
I get the impression that people here have no idea how annoying he was, just like Zarate, with his never ending dribbling attempts and raping of the ball, which resulted with nothing but frustration of the Udinese fans most of the time.

The world cup, where consistency isn't required, is where players like Zarate, Quaresma or Sanchez can leave a nice impression by being fancy, especially when they play against inferior defenders which they never face in serie A and rarely in CL.

What separates Sanchez from the others mentioned though, is his work rate. I like that. That means that with (much) more discipline in his game, he can actually make it at the big stage because his talent is undeniable.

:D I pretty much agree, there are not many players in WC, that have showed that the can control the ball, let's see how it will be with Spain. They'll surely moan if things doesn't go their way.
Strange that you say this about Spain where Italy are the ones known for moaning when things don't go their way.

Wow you guys on here are really prejudice. Next thing you'll tell us that black people can't swim, Americans are fat and so on... Generalizations ftw! Lots of people moan when things don't go their way, restricting that to a whole nation of people, of which you know probably next to noone personally reflects very badly on you.

When Pitbull said "Spain" he meant the Spanish football players at the world cup. When JCK said "Italy" he didn't mean every single Italian but the Azzurri players. So what kind of generalization do you have in mind here?

What you were saying about the Germans yesterday is not any different than what Jack said about Italy now.

Oh I see, so all the Azzurri players are moaners? Like Buffon, and Chiellini?

What did I say about Germany that came even close to that? I only remember talking about the german media, and since I'm watching the WC on german television I should know wtf I'm talking about, no?

So every single TV station in Germany, every single newspaper are like that?
If only one isn't, then you're generalizing, i'm afraid.

Here, this isn't a generalization: I hope every single Azzurri player apart from the Juve players breaks his leg and misses out on the rest of the world cup.

I can even name them for you if you want.

I apologize to all german media outfits who may have seen my statement and were offended by it.

However I see a difference between saying that one is tired of the german media exaggerating Germany's potential because of the win vs Australia, and saying, on an italian football clubs fan forum, where italians are present, that Italians are know to be whiners and moaners.

People have no clue about Honduras either. They have some pretty solid players and a good team, certainly underrated in my view. Thought they played well from what I saw today (the second half).

Chile has a good team and a good manager. I expect them to finish second in this group.

:tup:

Well said.

What Italian player did moan about the ball already?
Pazzini, at the very least.

I love how you fake juventini are always bashing Italy, just goes to show what kind of glory hunters you guys are. You probably wish Juve wouldn't field any Italians at all, become the next Inter.

There are non-Italians on here that chose to be Juve fans which I would consider real juventini, but you guys are just pathetic.
