"FIFA should look into that [goal line technology] because they're hurting their credibility in this country [US] and that's where all the money is coming from"

- Bill Plaschke, LA Times on ESPN

Wait, what??

Ohhhhh, its Bill Plaschke


never mind. He's a moron

He should just stick to writing articles about why Kobe Bryant won't talk to him

He's turkish ise'nt he Ozil?

Klose,Podolski-polish
Desailly-Ghanain (how the fuck do you spell taht lol)
Vieira-Senegalese
Camaronesi-Argentine
Rooney-Ogre

many countries take foreign nationals and adopt them for their football team for the betterment of their chances.....sometimes it works (desailly) sometimes they play like they miss their swamp

 

[Ken]

Whoa, rather unimpressive performance yet again. We looked like we have all tournament: like we really really don't give a crap. Slow, sloppy, hanging back.. We're really winning 'the German way'.

I've been looking over some pages of this thread, and I have to say, it's hilarious how many people hate / dislike our national team.

Can I just ask.. why? Bitter over being eliminated, or not qualifying at all, are we?

 

[JuveJay]

It's weird, people used to fawn over the Netherlands and this Totaalvoetbal tag that goes with them. I think there are just a lot of haters here

Hopefully you go out next round.

 

[Bozi]

hey ken,well done the dutch,but this is not a vintage team,i have too many concerns about the quality of their backline when they meet a top nation to think of them as genuine contenders. but if they can keep robben fit and sneider on the ball they will hurt teams

I think we'll go out, though I expect a turnaround when it comes to the spirit in which they walk onto the pitch. They looked like they didn't really care or felt that the tournament hadn't really started yet. If Brazil doesn't wake them up, I don't know which country will.

We can play much better, faster and more focused. I hope we give our all.

I can't stand teams who do that.





Keiren Westwood - England
Kevin Foley - England
Sean St Ledger - England
Marc Wilson - Northern Ireland
Paul Green - England
Darron Gibson - Northern Ireland
Liam Lawrence - England
James McCarthy - Scotland
Aiden McGeady - Scotland
Leon Best - England
Caleb Folan - England

 

[JuveJay]

Yeah, they really need to get into that game straight away, the 'easier' run hasn't really helped them, they have been in 1st gear a lot of the time.

 

[JuveJay]

It makes me laugh watching Desailly dance around during the BBC coverage of Ghana's games, he seems more in touch with Ghana than he did at all with France during the tournament. Perhaps he is just a glory

I like the Dutch NT and I think they're the best team to never win a World Cup. You and Spain are consistent chokers

Born in Germany actually (Gelsenkerchen). As are the Altintop brothers and Nuri Sahin (play for Turkey). Germany had a lot of Turkish immigrants move in during the post WWII rebuilding.

Thanks, and I pretty much agree. If you look at other countries though, there aren't that many 'top defences' that are really performing, imo. Most big teams haven't really been tested yet.

We should be able to hurt Brazil through Robben, as Bastos really isn't the LB I see keeping him quiet. We will have to step it up either way, but we do stand a chance on Friday.

Except Ozil isn't Turkish.

Yup. We don't have the mentality to just play on full power against the smaller teams, which is a damn shame.

Playing smaller teams has never done us any good. We need big opponents to get the best out of the team, that's why I'm hoping we can improve for the game on Friday.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

What a year it would be for Lucio, Maicon and J Cesar if Brazil win the World Cup.

 

[Bozi]

Except Ozil isn't Turkish.

he certainly aint Aryan

 

[Enron]

he certainly aint Aryan

So black people don't exist in Scotland?

It's like when Alen tried to convince me that half the US team were illegal Mexicans, when they were just born in Texas. :rndh:
