'But exceptionnel de Vahirua contre Le Mans' on Youtube Lets hope for a repeat of this.

Strootman is Van Bommel Mk II in every way unfortunately. Not sure Martins Indi is so bad. Verrati on the other hand.. That elbow from Martins in the box was a red card all day long. Admittedly I was channel hopping so didn't see all the incidents.

:lol:

Succinctly and eloquently put

Some thugs in the Dutch side. Strootman and Martins Indi would make good Mortal Kombat characters.

Naive performance from the Dutch, typical Italy tournament result. Kids learn quick.

BRAZIL: JULIO CESAR, DANI ALVES, THIAGO SILVA, DAVID LUIZ, MARCELO, FRED, NEYMAR, OSCAR, LUIZ GUSTAVO, PAULINHO, HULK #confeds #BRAJPN JAPAN: KAWASHIMA, HONDA, NAGATOMO, UCHIDA, ENDO, KIYOTAKE, OKAZAKI, KAGAWA, KONNO, HASEBE, YOSHIDA #confeds #BRAJPN

Why are South Korea not at this comp mate?

Annoying that BBC have got the rugby on their HD channels instead of this.

Agreed. There is no chance of Asia accepting a merger anyway. It would cost them money, unlike when they got Australia.

I think they're underrated in terms of importance.

Ah that's annoying, second one clashes with Brazil vs Japan.

Mignolet is a quality keeper, Westwood is vey average.

Messi just scored a screamer for Argies vs Guatemala.

Most of the Italian players to have come to England are capless and not very good. It's like us exporting lots of Danny Simpson type players.

Nobody here questioned his ambition when he left a champions league club to come to a mid table premier league club. He moved here to double his wages (at least). Monaco will be doing the same again.

Bianchi, Corradi and Maccarone didn't struggle. They're just not very good, in England or Italy. Harsh to overlook Ravanelli, Balotelli, Di Matteo and Vialli as other successes/relative successes.

None of the players they've signed or been linked to are Italian.

#ArgentinaXI vs Guatemala: Andújar; Campagnaro, Coloccini, Basanta, Rodríguez, A. Fernández, Guiñazú, Biglia, Lavezzi, Agüero y Messi

Be nice to have a potential replacement already lined up before we sell. Sorry, too much to ask I guess.

I'm a fan.

Fucking hell.

Was pretty poor last season apparently. Lyon are struggling financially IIRC.

You mean Bayern did that with Lahm?

Mines got Shearer on the back as well, not sure that one does.
