The Deutsch are pretty fair.

Germany wont go far, sure they won against Costa Rica but they are MUCH too volurnable at the back. One could say that so are Brazil but Brazil's attack is just WOW :D

I agree, the Germans came over sloppy to me. I doubt they'll win the WC. Then again maybe they'll pull themselves together.

WOHOOO!!! 4:2

This was a good match. Commentators after the game said that this wasn't all germany can offer. They played on low-skilled... vs lowbies :P

If this is right they could do what noone expected...

The two goals from Costa Rica were just because defence counted on "Abseits" (<<--- I dunno the english word) and handled too slow. Both times the same mistake. they will analyse it and work it out well next times.

Abseit = off side I think. My German is, well, non-existant :D

thats because of the balls, every world cup they make the balls lighter & lighter and you get 2/3 of the teams and players (particully keepers) complain about it.

I know, they do that so there will be more goals and make the game more entertaining. BUT u have to admit those were great shots regardless of the ball ;)


The England team really disappointed me today, they didnt create much at all and their only goal was very lucky indeed :mellow: They do have a great defence though and maybe attack will improve when Rooney returns. I think Crouch is crap and if he will continue playing in attack, you will again go home empty-handed ;)

crouch is crap? out of the last 3 england games he has scored 44% of the goals?

That doesnt mean anything really, out of the last 2 Slovenia games Novakovic has scored 100% of our goals. Now tell me, does that mean that he is THAT good? ;)

I remember at the beginning of the season when Liverpool signed him, he was their 1st choice striker and yet got his first official goal after 4 months playing :S And even after that goal, he didnt bag them every game. Is that really a good choice striker in your opinion?
Tell me something else, how many quality crosses has Beckham put into opposition box in the Paraguay game? I think we can both agree that a lot :D And how many did he converted into goal? Yep thats right, none. I mean the guy is almost 2m tall, if he can score with his head what can he do then?

TO be honest england cant play in heat and it showed yesterday proof of this is that they consumed 70L of water during the match compared to a usual 20 so it does say alot

However all the other england games are now 17-00 and 20-00 kickoffs so they wont really have too much of a problem

ENgland will sort them selves out soon as rooney returns and they get used to playing with eachother and the defence is great

with crouch to be honest hes an O k striker but i dont like him i would much rather have had someone like Andrew Johnson or Jemaine Defoe in his place too bad really

AS for OWen when he gets to the QUater finals thats where he will shine hes still no 100 % match fit and it showed so we just gotta wait and hope


As for the rest i was only really dissapointed with 2 players A . COle and F . Lampard

Lampard was just not influencial in the game and he didnt really shoot untill late in the game so i was quite dissapointed with him however i did really like Joe cole and David Beckham they both had great games

COme On England

Well as I said b4, England does have a very strong squad. Their only weakness is their attack. But as u said, when Rooney returns they should manage themselves quite ok, but the question is if rooney is going to stay healthy and if he is going to find his form right away. I think Eriksson made a mistake by not bringing more experianced strikers to the world cup ^_^
