Kaizero Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Adam Kwarasey, Ghana keeper, is pissed off about Ghana. "As I sat there, all I could think was that I had wasted my international career." Going on about corruption at their FA, players fed up and being benched by the FA chiefs and not the manager, who almost broke down in tears when explaining it wasn't his choice to bench someone. Do you think he'd start for Norway if he had opted for them instead? He'd have like fucking 60 caps by now. We've not had a good keeper since Erik Thorstvedt.

Unbelievable Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 So who do we think will go through? Brazil, Germany, Holland and Argentina or will there be upsets? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 We've not had any real upsets yet despite it being a great tournament. I expect now is the time - Colombia to go through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 best thing for the tournament would be a colombia win tonight like have a sneaky feeling france might do germany and all, despite germany being my pick to win it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I think Columbia are a better team than Brazil in all honesty, but I think Neymar and the atmosphere will pull them through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Brazil, Argentina and Holland but I can't split France and Germany. Maybe Germany because they're Germans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 These ones tonight are so nicely poised. Fancy France in the first given they form they've been in and how shaky Germany have looked, added to the fact they had no ET to deal with last time out. This "flu" that Muller and a number of others are suffering with could be a factor in near 30 degree heat as well, though I know Löw has been playing it down. Interested to see how France react if they end up going behind though, given that they're yet to have been in that position. Brazil against Colombia is similar in a few ways, given that the underdog are the form side and the "big" team has looked poor at times. Colombia look perfectly set up to really get at Brazil's weak spots for me and Luiz Gustavo will probably be a big miss given the defensive work he gets through, while the way Pekerman sets up could make it hard for Neymar to get much space to play in. All they really have to do is sit deep and compact and use their weapons on the break. Like others have said though, Germany are Germany and Brazil have home advantage so who the fuck knows? I am excite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 germany will be praying france stick with giroud, he was woeful in the last match, in fact so were france until he went off actually Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Fairly sure he's getting hooked for Griezmann in this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Fairly sure he's getting hooked for Griezmann in this one. so he should be, griezmann was mint from the moment he stepped on the pitch...they'll have a much better chance with him on the left Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Better set up for the counter that way as well, plus Benzema won't have to play with a pet lip on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 you want pace and movement vs. those german CB's anyway, nippy and tricky fuckers working the channels getting in between/behind them and that too....not giroud comically falling around and combing his hair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benzema has scored 3 in 3 and been brilliant, let's put him wide for stinky Giroud to poo all over the penalty box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
