Bayern have used it since Christmas. Not sure about the other clubs. Surely everyone has to use the same ball? Not in the Bundesliga. Random pic from April 2010 which shows Frankfurt. Surley not the World Cup ball. http://cache1.asset-cache.net/xc/98539770.jpg?v=1&c=NewsMaker&k=2&d=77BFBA49EF878921A343B2C87A49D8F50F7AFD4FC33909E088F87E688CDD977A02951B78164A1F78

Any Italy experts here? Would say they are going to beat Paraguy tonight...

That was nervous. Thought Holland - Denmark would be a bit like Germany - Australia. Anyway, won this and now I'm hopefull on the other bet as well.

Not so good for England that they almost got relegated this season though. Surley Green and Upson have been two of their better players. Haven't watched so many PL matches last season, though. Not noticeably tbh. Only Parker and Diamanti have impressed me for WHU this past season. All right. Parker should have gone to the World Cup imo. Could have replaced Barry against the US.

Would be good for Rob Green as well to have a player of his club (Upson) in front of him. If Green still plays...

Have 4€ on Holland, Japan - Cameroon draw, Italy. 15 € on Holland (-1)

What would that mean? Carragher to start for the rest of the World Cup? He was really shit against USA. Couldn't even stop Altidore...

Yeah, thought the same during the game. Australia were coming back into this. But without Cahill there was simply no chance anymore.

Got 15 € on that now. + 35 € on Germany only to win. 15 on Germany (-1), 35 on Germany, and got an extra little 6 € on Klose to score anytime = returned just about 115€. Very happy with that after England made me loss 100€.

Germany - Australia was great to watch yesterday. Finally a game with many goals. Bit sorry for Australia, though. Especially with Cahill's red card - he'll be a big miss for them.

Final. Don't think the first game gives an real indication on anything. France and Italy both started very very poor in 2006 and both reached the final.

Will watch this now with some mates outside. Hoping the rain will stop till the kick-off.

What is your first language, English or German? Is that a serious question? Well, I was born in Germany and live there as well so I suppose it's... German. Thought you might have been born in England and moved or something.. Pay no attention to them then, I doubt their german is very good..

Ah, I've probably got it now. But I have to say, I've seen many worse sentences along the years here.

More English supporter than German tbh. But I'm not against Germany or anything - today for example I will cheer for them. But normally I'm an England fan.

I think Löw will have his team very good prepared. Team spirit is very good. Klose is said to getting some form now. Can't see this side not winning today tbh.

I thought that but reading the preview on the BBC website has put doubt in my mind. Apparently Australia are very negative and the Germany manager has expressed concern about breaking them down. Yeah, but he also has said that "maybe one goal won't be enought at a World Cup to win a match". That's one of many strong hints that they will play very much offensive football and try to score 2 or more goals.

Got 15 € on that now. + 35 € on Germany only to win.

Forget about every player who does only half-well at the world cup. Their price-tag will rise up dramatically.

Is your German any good? It just was about that they want Ballack. Not that they don't have any more money.

Well, the worst thing about that is that I actually thought that Ghana would win but still backed Serbia.
