I'm starting to become more and more convinced that the Dutch can actually win this tournament. I don't think Italy and France are as strong as they once were; Romania could prove itself to become a dangerous outsider (although that's not too likely). Group D basically sucks. Russia might be up for a surprise, but that's about it. Portugal isn't as immortal as they're supposed to be (just look back on the qualification rounds); the Germans are rather vulnerable, as is the Czech Republic, and England's not even participating. Croatia might end up surprising, and Portugal will end up winning the tournament, beating the Dutch in an attractive final.

That's it, you can now safely go on a vacation without having to worry.

I said they comparatively suck! They'll be fine in the end though, if it's the result that counts.

They might, who knows. IMO: France isn't anywhere near as strong as they were a couple years ago, and Italy used to be better as well (although they surely still are extremely strong - imagine how strong they used to be!).

I didn't say they were underdogs now all of a sudden, so basically we agree..! I just think that France might end up missing out, facing such strong competition in the group. Had they been put in Group A, they would have been semi-finalists most likely (although in that case, Group A would have been considered "the group of death").

just because you're Bayern fan or is there another reason (Holland) ;D

On  one hand I don't want Italy to advance, but on the other one  I want personal revenge for 06'.

It's only because they play for Bayern, I have no beef with Holland or any team for that matter... I just want Turkey to lose, because I don't want a bruised body and a black eye in the summer.. and there will be fighting IF Germany plays against Turkey  ;D

That Malouda nigga is pissing me off. Ribéry wants to switch to the left side cause he is always keeping it real there, but Malouda won't switch over to the right side. What a faggot. Ribéry >> Malouda  ... Also, Henry >>> Anelka... Anelka is as overrated as they come. Domenec needs to do a better job at putting a team together. France's roster >>> France's team.

Embarassing. That's the difference between having a great manager like Marcello Lippi and having a rookie with no experience at all like Roberto Donadoni.
This is probably the worse game played by Italy i've seen in the last 5-6 years.

Congrats to Netherlands .. that's beautiful and impressive fastbreak football ... they succeeded in everything they tried .. I don't think we played a bad game , we're just have a wack ass coach and some players have nothing to do on the field (Govou, Malouda, Coupet, Gomis  ) ... I applauded Netherlands goals, pure beauty, I hope they will the tournament , would be good thing for the game...

they need to renew their team with younger talents, not those old horses which they got selected in the main team, just like france. next WC theyll both have strong teams again but this year they aint got shit happening.

Post by: Kill on June 14, 2008, 04:52:17 AM
I still think either France or Italy is gonna move on, because both will have to go all-out against each other, while Holland can chill out in the game against Romania and chances are it's gonna be a 3rd draw for the Romanians, making them 3rd in the group. No arguing about who's the best team in the group anymore, of course.

But I agree with Antonio, it's almost as if you felt the difference between Lippi and Donadoni with every move made on the field. Granted, there's bad luck (the "offside goal", Cannavaro missing...) and dumb mistakes (Zambrotta) involved, but it's a strategic mess and a squadra in a strategic mess is like Brazilians without talent or Germans without discipline. And you can't help blaming that on the manager.

Did you even see the game? France got their ass whooped because we have such a good offense, but France was the better team especially in the first half. If they go through it's only a matter of time before they start scoring.

Good comparison, although I do think this is one of the best Spanish teams so far. That 2-1 against Sweden was a piece of hard work, but that's because the Swedish spent half time 2 playing catenaccio like they're fucking Greece. That was the type of football that deserves to be punished, and it was even more disappointing because Sweden was actually pretty good in the first 45 minutes

yes i did see the game and im speaking more about their defense; what a joke it was for most of the game. Holland has a great offence, but i promise u they dont net 3-4 goals against spain or portugal. France won't get through, i think they have the worst chance of coming out of that group.
