oldtype Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 not really getting a sniff, but that's to be expected I suppose. Defending well enough. Spain not doing much other than give it to Navas who hoofs it up to Llorente. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Llorente can't play up top on his own. He's the quintessential 442 striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Navas. What a goal. And he's not even a starter for Spain. This is not fair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 VI, are you at all concerned by your build-up? Yes, you have a collection of excellent players but a thoroughly unconvincing win against the Saudis with a last-minute win, and a very late win against South Korea is a bit worrying for a team with the quality you have. Let's use "you" to avoid a Catalan v Spanish argument. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 No, I'm not worried. They are just friendlies, and we haven't played more than 45 minutes with our ideal starting XI anyway. The last 30 minutes of the Korea game, with both Xavis, Silva, Villa, etc... on the pitch we have battered them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Incidentally I think this is our first win against South Korea in - at least - the past 20 years I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 By that measure should we not be concerned by the way we scraped past Mexico and Japan? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 By that measure should we not be concerned by the way we scraped past Mexico and Japan? Yes, to an extent. It'd be stupid to ignore them as though they didn't exist. It doesn't mean I suddenly think we'll do crap. By asking VI whether he'd be concerned, it doesn't mean I expect Spain to crash out early - it comes down to the small details with the top quality sides.

oldtype Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Okay that was less bad than I expected. They were always going to rip us to little bits once Xavi/Xabi/Villa came on and our defense looked fairly confident the whole time. Hopefully we'll be able to put a bit more "attack" in "counter-attack" at the finals with Jisung in the team. Fucking hell though, could one of those "Spain B" players not have been born South Korean? I think I'd kill to have any of that 2nd XI in our squad. Well, maybe not Capadevilla.

Tachikoma Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Question, why does Cha Du-Ri play at right back for you? He looks awfully uncomfortable there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Question, why does Cha Du-Ri play at right back for you? He looks awfully uncomfortable there. He'd look uncomfortable anywhere on the pitch man He's barely a footballer. We just play him because he's faster than Oba and stronger than Drogba. That and the amusement value.
