Head Honcho Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 He's captain and he cares, thats why he's getting at others. If some of the England players had shown a bit of personality and tried to buck the team up then we might be there now. I'd rather have a team of bad losers than a team of just losers. He's the captain so should therefore be encouraging the team not bollocking them everytime a pass through to him doesn't work out. Good captains don't resort to argueing with team mates a quarter of the way into the game.
Joe. Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 Schweinsteiger- Good player but what a twat. EDIT: Seeing the replay, that's embarassing from the Croatian player.
General Smuts Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 Schweinsteiger- Good player but what a twat. Looks just like Dean Windass with his new hair. Cept a lot thinner obvs!
General Smuts Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 EDIT: Seeing the replay, that's embarassing from the Croatian player. Still a red either way. And his reaction was still far less embarrassing than Rivaldo. Game uvver!
Head Honcho Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 I hope Poland win big tonight and go on to beat the Croats in the last game-Bye Bye Germany
dandannieldanok Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 Was that balls a free kick. Franck de Bleckeere's had a mare.
Finnegan Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 Hahahahahaha. Fooking fantastic. Great game! Well deserved, I love Bilic haha. Germans were pretty terrible, that's Croatia guaranteed top spot now isn't it cos of the head-to-head rule? So that means Germany have to play Portugal (presumably) in the next round? Fantastic. PS: Schweinsteiger (sp?) reacted, he had to go. Modric should never have been booked, I hate all this "any sight of studs = BOOK HIM DAMNIT!" rubbish, it was a fair tackle!
Simi Posted 12 June 2008 Author Posted 12 June 2008 That's what you call winning as a team. You can see at the end the team spirit that they've built together. Something we are lacking big time. Also something that can't be built over a short period. I fully expect Croatia to finish top and more than likely reach the Semis.
lildave3 Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 Well well well. Germany were poor, defensively and going forward. Don't rule them out of winning this whole thing though. Gomez was shit. Ballack was shit. Odonkor was shit. Modric however, has impressed me alot. Has he gave away possession once yet this tournament? Cracking player. And how d you actually pronounce Joachim Low's name? I've heard about 7 different styles. Including Yogi Love. God knows how that comes about.
Joe. Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 I fully expect Croatia to finish top and more than likely reach the Semis. It's looking that way now. Very impressive tonight and they should have no trouble getting a point against Poland which would obviously make them group winners. That should therefore set up a quarter final against either the Czechs or the Turkish and they'd fancy their chances against either.
dandannieldanok Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 And how d you actually pronounce Joachim Low's name? I've heard about 7 different styles. Including Yogi Love. God knows how that comes about. I think if you say Love in a German accent thats as close as you'll get to his surname.

I would like Croatia to knock out Turkey in the quarters to be honest. This would please me a lot.

Simi Posted 12 June 2008 Author Posted 12 June 2008 That's if the Turks manage to qualify. . Although I don't think they'll struggle there.
LeeCovFox Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 Good game. Germany looked poor. But never, ever, write them off.
lildave3 Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 That's if the Turks manage to qualify. . Although I don't think they'll struggle there. Not sure either way. God I hope Semih starts.
Joe. Posted 12 June 2008 Posted 12 June 2008 That's if the Turks manage to qualify. . Although I don't think they'll struggle there. I think the Czech vs Turks game is going to be quality. I really can't predict who's going to win it to be honest.
