The College Dropout

Gay. Football is settled by who scores the most goals. No it's not it's gay.

This sounds so gay. I LOVE penalties. The measure of a man nh, 1 touch, 1 shot, 1 chance. Players choke, some become heroes, some become villains.. Football is not only a sport but entertainment and there is nothing more nail-biting and tense than a penalty shoot out. Love them even though they've rarely been good to me. 1 team playing defensive all game hoping for penalties ? It's obvious to everyone that playing for shoot-outs is dumb... only if your numerically disadvantaged is it a good idea... If there was another system stupid teams would do the same thing and wait for whatever

Yes this is a gay idea/concept.. It takes too long.. penalties are far more exciting and dramatic. Ref blows his whistle, the run up, the shot, the dramatic outcome. That's why I love penalties. They are responsible for some of the best drama ever seen within football.... Baggio '90, Southgate '96.. even Terry's miss was nail-biting dramatic stuff (I had a lot of money riding on Chelsea)..

i agree 100%. some players just have a look on their face before taking the penalty that you just know they are going to miss ... it's like they are sucking on a lemon. Agree as well but I thought Carzola the second penalty taker looked the same and was going to miss. Looked like he was about to cry. lol that's what I thought. It was a good penalty too... I think that expression might be something people just do in Spain.. I remember Riquelme (I know he aint Spanish) taking a penalty for Villareal against Arsenal.. from his face you just knew he was going to miss... I thought that about Anelka and that Guiza guy... If your going to be shit scared, why take one?

Sneider has pulled them back into it. He was the only one among them who seemed to still believe. Okay, no more predictions for tonight. Because of you Sneijder will miss a sitter or a penalty.. perhaps both.

Good decision.. looked a foul too... Sneijder also didn't play act (or did he)

It's true though... WHOOOOPS! There it is.

RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDDDD!!!

It's true though...

The Dutch defence looks a bit dodgy to me, but I don't think Russia will be able to get at them. Should be a good game. Eh? So far in the tournament the Russians have looked very creative going forward... just had several Emile Heskey's upfront. But they can't defend very well either.. Arshavin is some player.

I aint reading all that shit. Yes i am negative... i have become accustomed to trophy signings and big money being spent...

Not many England players have ever looked as shit as Gomez.. he looks shell-shocked and the confidence has all gone.... Honestly looked horrendous

oh no it wont you know....it just won't have gone up ridiculously as it would had he had a good tournament. People say this but if you continuously have stinkers in a tournament then surely your value decreases. It's not like he plays in a top league either...

Inter need some pace.

Freepost

Why? He didn't do a Jenas.

Aye that's true.

did petr cech need to rush out that far? Or am I being too harsh? Yeah he needed to narrow the goal/angle and was looking to sweep up a poor touch..

You knew as soon as it left his boot that it was going in.. and so did he....

We get it that you don't like him ok. You shut up about Milner, I'll shut up about Cech. Aye Cech has been dodgy since all his accidents... doesn't save many penalties either the bastard....

Absolutely. The composure was astonishing too. Aye didn't try to Michael owen-slide it in either.. Fucking top corner....

Since I called top class european football the tournament as gotten x10 better..
