amazing comment Amazingly true comment. Amazing that any European could say that tbh. Beggars belief. I don't class myself as a continent. I class myself as a nationality. I couldn't give a toss about which continent the WC winner is from when it's not my country. Sure, I have some countries I'd rather see win a WC than others. But neither of those are from Europe. Well, thinking about it that is wrong, I don't really mind Sweden doing well. In general I have a strong dislike for most European national football teams. Exactly. Europe is nothing but a lump of land, ooh so a country is closer means I should feel more connected to it. Fuck that. If anything there should be more of a rivalry between teams from the same continent. I'll latch onto certain countries and hope they do well, but I'd never base it on the fact they were European. For example out of the countries remaining in the competition I want Uruguay to win it, and if they don't then Netherlands. The reasoning behind supporting either of these teams has nothing to do with their geographical proximity to where I live.

He'd still walk into our team tbh.

This is like two tramps fighting over a penny. As pathetic as it is pointless, give it a rest lads.

Definitely behind the ball.

It really was, I thought they'd messed it up with a weak pass to Ozil. Then I thought he'd mess up the pass to Klose, but he didn't, it was just perfect floated onto his foot. Then Klose just slotted it home, I don't understand how that man steps up so much at international football. Strange, strange player. Aye, one of Ronaldo's record too isn't he? Yeah. I hope he doesn't break that record tbh. Being on par with a legend like Gerd Mueller is one thing, but Miroslav f'ing Klose slipping past El Fenomeno would be sick.

I just don't see the point you're making, it's as if you're clinging onto any kind of glory. If somebody asks me where I'm from I don't say Europe, I'd say England. Europe is a continental landmass and not much more, there is no reason to feel any connection to the likes of Germany and Spain ahead of the South Americans. More Europeans in the Semis means absolutely nothing.

Going to win the World Cup Again, who cares? I have about as much affiliation to Germany and Spain as I do to Brazil and Argentina. They're all as foreign as each other, European or South American. I live in Europe. As do I.

Cambiasso - Schweinsteiger midfield partnership. This needs to happen.
-
Who cares. Europe sucks.
-
Even England>Spain at WCs. Embarassing for the Spanish, but they should atleast make the semis this time round.
-
If he guides Netherlands to the trophy and top scorer award he'll probably get WPOTY.
-
Come on Argentina!
-
Sneijder awared the first goal against Brazil. Now joint top goalscorer at the WC.
-
The only reason behind signing Mata I could see would be to get one over on Real considering he was one of their youth products.
-
I was thinking they might loan him out as one for the future - then I realised he's nearly 24.
-
The worst thing about the whole incident was the commentary from ITV, who after the original free kick was given declared that any goal scored from it would have been controversial. Then they convenientely forgot that moments later.

Whatever you say about what Suarez did... That was absolutely brilliant. Why I love and hate football all rolled into one brief moment, stunning.
-
Tbh I don't care about the ball when it's helping goals be scored. It's when it balloons over the bar that's annoying.
-
Another one for the ITV cliches. Makelele invented the holding midfield role by himself.

Argentina - Netherlands and Argentina - Uruguay would be great potential finals in terms of rematches.
