The other games today - 2009/10


Recommended Posts

Spain's game about to start, and if Marca is correct we seem to be putting a rather dodgy lineup due to injuries with a bunch of players out of position (Iniesta on the right wing, Silva on central midfield...)

 

EDIT: Watching the game now, and Marca was full of it. Iniesta seems to be on centre midfield, Silva on the right wing.

Got to say, Spain's defence is pretty weak for a top side, imo. Especially the fullbacks. Capdevilla is rubbish. Even Sergio Ramos is a liability defensively at times.

 

Our weakest link no doubt. South Africa gets Puyol too late and Piqué maybe too soon, they should still put up good performances though, just not "Best XI". Ramos is great going forward, but prone to Bramble-like blunders. Capdevila, Albiol, Arbeola, Marchena are just "decent" not top material.

 

Piqué scores so much lately is silly. I think he has 4 in 12 or something like that in international games.

its there weak point alright but with keepers like cassias and reina it doesnt get as badly punished as it should

Fun note about the El Salvador and Honduras clash, there was so much tension between those two teams that a WC qualifier game acutally broke out a war between the countries after the game  :idiot2:

 

"The football war" they called it.

Aye there was an interesting article in fourfourtwo about that a few months ago.
