Dokko Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Typical Holland.. And Portugal yesterday. Just waiting for the Spanish banana skin and the usual suspects do it again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I think he's the player of the tournament. He's only had two games as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 After the first half, Holland were like England on a bad day. No pace, no creativity, no confidence. Perhaps no leadership either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely shocking side. He comes back and they're world beaters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicago_shearer Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I am become death, destroyer of football teams. First Switzerland and now Holland. Beware the team I decide to support in my avatar next, because you will surely suffer painful elimination. Hiddink is without a doubt the greatest manager in the world. The luckiest as well. If England had one ounce of pride and ability, they wouldn't have been at the finals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 How can Allardyce praise Russia's attacking play? It is totally alien to how he likes his teams to play! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I think if Russia play Spain they'll win and Italy they'll lose. Got a bet on an Italian/German final so hope the eyeties win tommorow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he mentioned that he was among the first to be in for Arshavin? I'd imagine he'd be wearing a shirt proclaiming that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 How can Allardyce praise Russia's attacking play? It is totally alien to how he likes his teams to play! That's what i was thinking. Don't worry he will back to his trademark puntathon shitfest when he is the new Stoke manager in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gbolem Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Why the fuck would Zenit accept a bid and do a deal prior to this tournament when they know if he has even half a good game his value shoots up?? Fuck me man, grow up and recognise the obvious instead of whinging about "this club :rant: :rant:" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 3 group winners out. 3 group runners-up in the semi-finals. More to the point, momentum is more important than rest. The 3 teams who had to win their last group games and have maintained their intensity have won their quarter-finals. Certainly Portugal and Holland who are teams who play well when they get into a rythym suffered from halting that by playing their reserves in the last group games. On that basis, Spain have no chance against Italy tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The football gods favour those who do not take football lightly This is akin to what happened in the NFL when the Giants played hard in the final game (even though it was meaningless) and they took that momentum (in what was a great game) all the way to the final. Every other team who rested players in the final week stuttered when the knock-out phase begin and were kicked out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 best. tournament. ever. When's the last time there wasn't a late goal in the game? Still banking on Russia. Never bet against a Hiddink side. He's a perrenial loser though. Also the best international manager on the planet. That is a good point though, he's never actually won anything. Coming from a Korean, that ain't much of a surprise Hiddink = God I was there in Daejeon (?) in the second round when you boys played against the Italians. Class atmosphere. Never been in a louder place all my life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
