The underestimating Croatia is absolute rubbish. England get to a semi final and everyone expects England fans/media/team to basically say. 'We...
I don't think anyone believes it will lead to world and European titles. Just that there is talent coming through. Of course many may not even...
Well played Croatia. Definitely deserved the win. Disappointed with our second half and resorting to 'classic England' i.e. sitting back on a 1...
Dominance? I know the german game was to quickly counter attack and so the game went exactly as they wanted it but come on thats not dominating a...
I agree with everything you said except when you say we expect to win everything because of the EPL. Fallacy
Well done Germany. Much the better team deserved to win 4-1 was about right well maybe 5-2. 442 didn't work as i knew it wouldn't although im...
Never, lol. Ive gotta stop thinking about sunday the more i do, the more i worry. I just get the feeling Schweinsteiger Khedira and Oezil are...
Re: Match 51 (R16) - Winner D v Runner Up C - Pre-Match Thread I think more then anything its the choice of worlds that make his comments...
I have the feeling Capello is going to stick with the same team. This really scares me as like you say Oezil will be able to find space but not...
tbf i dont think england fans are going to be that bothered by what he says and will just take it on the chin. Personally it doesn't really...
Re: Match 51 (R16) - Winner D v Runner Up C - Pre-Match Thread Can i just ask. Are you Germans not somewhat annoyed and worried by Beckenbauer...
Re: Match 51 (R16) - Winner D v Runner Up C - Pre-Match Thread IMO Neuer is better then James, but i think your overstating it slightly....
If this was 2006 i may agree with you. Theres no where near as many stupid chavs saying we'll win the world cup. There was the usual optimism...
My god and i thought england fans were suppose to be the most arrogant fans in the world. Lets face it both games are pretty much 50:50....
Yeah those newspaper headlines are/where the views of the whole of England :rolleyes:. No england fan thought it would be easy apart from the...
If just this were true then England would have been more succesfuly in the last 50 years. I think the football style and other factors come...

So it was more of a failure of barca on tuesday then a good defence by chelsea? thats how i see it anyway. Any one think messi is starting to...
I only included Beckenbauer because i knew someone would moan. For me hes not even a defender so i wouldn't consider him for the greatest ever...
I personally think Beckenbaur should eb included as he was always more of a Dm then a CB any way. If you include him and think of him as a DM...
Your comparing Nuremburg, Stuttgart and Olympiastadion in Berlin to what the stadiums like the MCG. Just because they have running tracks around...
The only two countries i would be happy seeing hold the 2018 world cup finals. England and the Holland/Belgium bid. I think both will give the...
Yup i'd agree Australia is unique and well-qualified nation to host the world cup in 2018. Your only problem is ALL THE OTHER NATIONS bidding are...
