There's the right arm ... the legs, the back, the neck, shave your head and put one on top. Plenty of room for future wins.
World Champions Germany are now officially ranked No. 1 in FIFA World Ranking with 1724 points. http://www.fifa.com/worldranking/news/newsid=2406169/index.html http://www.fifa.com/worldranking/rankingtable/index.html
FIFA rankings are in general crap. They do not display the team strentghs like a league table can do. How they are used for groups is nonsensical. Jogis Jungs are no.1 at this very moment. Cause they won the WC thats why. If Azerbaijan is 34th or 78th of the world doesnt matter at all.
If Messi winning another golden ball means Germany winning one more World Cup trophy in 2018, I'll happily live and die with that.
I think the current squad should do a cover of this. haha wonder what the 'gauchos-die-gehen-so'-detractors would say then?
Here's my take on a combination of all 4 German World Cup winning teams. Criterion is the performance of a player in the final itself, not overall career pedigree: ----------------------G.Müller (74)--------Rahn (54) -------------------F.Walter (54)---------Littbarski (90) ---------------Schweinsteiger (14)------Bonhof (74) --Brehme (90)---Boateng (14)----Beckenbauer (74)---Vogts (74) ---------------------------------Turek (54)
Dunno if fremdschämen is due here. I find it pretty fitting to the whole image Germany has now down there: "Flalemanha", caring for sick kids, everyday people and the local tribe, humbled, modest, hard-working, team-spirit footy. This trash samba music adds sth to this image: Germans can be realaxed and have a laugh about themselves too. So why not?
It's just that it didn't strike me as particularly ironic, plus the guy is so stiff, it rather reinforces the old stereotypes about Germans. And then there's the lyrics...three lines in total and the second one is already a grammatical disaster...I'm sure that with a bit of thought, he could have come up with another line that ends with *eil. So all in all, it just screams "wannabe Ballerman performer" and that's really one of the most embarrassing parts of German culture.
Ok! I dont see it that way. But if there's a reason for his stiffness and the grammar then it surely is where he comes from: sLändle.
Here's a story from Bild. Been living up in the favelas married to a Brazilian. Originally from Stuttgart apparently. Anyway I think it's awesome.
