Re: World Cup 2006

agree with Alejandro.
Palacio plays the kind of football i love to watch, and Messi, well, he's just a magician who happens to play too
just watch what he does here

Re: World Cup 2006

We start tomorrow without Michael Ballack sadly because he is injured but Costa Rica should be beatable with or without him. Tomorrow, directly after work I drive to a BBQ with friends on a garden terrace and watch the opening ceremony and the Games together on the telly and on Saturday I will be watching the Game England vs. Paraguay in the Stadium in my hometown.

It will be the only time I can see a Game live but I am thankful for the one ticket I was able to get ahold of.

Next weeks here will be fun fun fun!

Re: World Cup 2006

just glad it looks as though Rooney may be fit for at least one of the group matches, maybe even two if he can train fully today or tomorrow!

I feel USA has a very very tough group to get out of, dont see them making it to the knock out round to be honest.. Germany may not even make it out of their group..

Re: World Cup 2006

Sven said on the radio today that Rooney had no injury anymore, that to me sounds like he may play in the group matches too. God I hope so.

Re: World Cup 2006

OK Chubbies!!! The world cup is here!!! After well over a year of real 'can't wait' type waiting, it's here!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it.....

M€M you are correct, so much talent. Ivory coast, drogba, eboue, toure. Messi, crespo, riquelme, sorin, tevez, aimar..... Kaka, Ronnie, Ronaldo, Adriano, Juninho... Marquez... Deco... Henry, Zidane, Ribery......Xavi, Iniesta, Torres, Raul, Puyol...damn!!!!... hell even Terry, Crouch, Gerrard...and Gatuso, Nesta, Totti etc.... and Shevchenko, Nedved, Barosh... I'm sure I'm forgetting many.. any of them can be world cup heroes, we just get to sit back and watch whom will be the starts

Rooney has a fat head. He will be proven to suck. Sorry to insult anyone here, but it's MHO, you know??

Also, I can't wait for the US and Mexico's destruction at the hands of teams with true CLASS!! I hope spain can get it together for the first time in, I don't know, their history, and do well... I hope the ref's don't fuck anything up, and the best team wins!!!

Re: World Cup 2006

People who know me know I´m a patriot and I stand up for my country all the time (even though I loathe most of it´s inhabitants), but I´m very skeptical about Portugal´s performance in this World Cup...

Sure, all the world expects great things from guys like Cristiano Ronaldo and Deco, but I think Ronaldo´s success has gotten to his head...in our last two friendly games he had actions that would´ve gotten him an immediate red card in a serious game...after being tackled or losing the ball to an opponent, he "attacked" the other teams players on 3 different occasions...

Also, most of our players are too full of themselves and the fact that we are playing against theorically weaker teams ALWAYS turns against us...we go in to the pitch thinking it´s gonna be a stroll in the park and we end up being humiliated (anyone remembers Portugal losing to USA in the 2002 WC? ). I believe we´ll see Figo playing his best tournament ever, trying to lead the team (he seems to be on great form!), but ultimately we will fail.

And it´s gonna be a tragedy over here, basically...the support over here is hysterical right now, every house has a flag on the window and this is all everyone talks about, as if it´s our nation´s salvation.

Re: World Cup 2006

Talk about pressure...I am sure our journalists already have their reports ready. They only need to edit the name of the Team Germany lost against and the date in...they are hungry for their own Team to fail...we live in a crazy world nowadays. Football is neither the Salvation from problems nor is it the ultimate cause.

Yup, that?s how it is over here too...
