Have 10 € on Hushovd, Freire, Rojas to be ahead of McEwen and Ciolek (2x) respectively. And 12 € on the same bet without Hushovd vs McEwen. Hope Ciolek won't have a great day now.

Ah, totally misread that.

Christ, Pompy must be really fucked! Unless James was on 140K a week.

First day of the season is usually great imo.

Somehow I agree.

Well, ok. Probably I have some wrong memories about that then. Or it is because I'm a bit of a fan of Sneijder. I thought it was more of a deflection from Melo. But anyways, it was given by the FIFA. Bad for those who are in Messi's situation betting wise. But I doubt that Villa will leave that World Cup without the golden boot.

Can't understand how Schweinsteiger only got 3 points today. Was probably the best player on the pitch.

Melo only got a little touch. I think it is Sneijder's goal. Could well be that I would think differently if I was in the same situation as you are.

Think the team which was more effective won today. Germany missed Müller badly. Trochowski couldn't replace him. Kroos didn't do a great job after coming on either. Why Löw brought on Gomez, I don't know. He'll never score an important goal, never. Should have brought on Marin instead. He might would have done something.

Think that was quite fair. You thought the same if you would have put a bet on Sneijder to be top scorer.

That bet on Spain saved my day a little bit. Still made a little loss (about 20 €) because of my cycling bets today.

1-0 Spain win it will be imo.

Aye, right. Gooch. Forgot about him.

Thanks for the info. True it is. Germany v Spain line-ups: Germany: 1-Manuel Neuer; 16-Philipp Lahm, 3-Arne Friedrich, 17-Per Mertesacker, 20-Jerome Boateng, 15-Piotr Trochowski, 6-Sami Khedira, 7-Bastian Schweinsteiger, 10-Lukas Podolski, 8-Mesut Ozil, 11-Miroslav Klose. Spain: 1-Iker Casillas; 15-Sergio Ramos, 3-Gerard Pique, 5-Carles Puyol, 11-Joan Capdevila; 14-Xabi Alonso, 8-Xavi, 6-Andres Iniesta, 16-Sergio Busquets; 18-Pedro, 7-David Villa. Referee: Viktor Kassai (Hungary).

Because he's for F-R-E-E. Very expensive if he's crocked. And as pointed out above, he sounds like a bit of a money grabber tbh. Are there any footballers that aren't money grabbers?

Because he's for F-R-E-E.

True, actually.

Who would have thought how poor Torres would be playing, too?

That's me betting on Spain to go through then. Germany are without Thomas Müller which will be a real problem to them as well.

Think Lorrente or what he is called was way better than Torres in his short time he was playing.

Anyone knows if Torres will be starting again tonight? After the comments of the Spain coach I can see him being left out tbh.

Can't really decide which team will go thorugh tonight, still have some bets: 10 € on Germany (-1) 10 € on Klose & Villa to score anytime (both have to score) 5 € Klose to score with a header Edit: 50 € on Spain to go through.

I've got £1 on Farrar at 14/1 and £1 on Friere at 10/1. Cav's at 5/6 on skybet, too short I reckon. Farrar was a bad choice obviously. He won't be able to sprint for the next 3 stages. (broken hand) Whooops, didn't know that, down on the cobbles yesterday? I only managed to catch bits of that at work. No, he crashed that day before. On stage 2 where (almost) every rider crashed.

Bad luck today. Lance was on 36, Contador on 32. Those 4 places would have brought me 60 €.
