Bryn Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Undeniably the best team won, but to say it is a victory for football is completely wrong when you consider a number of factors. How'd you mean?
Fox You Forest Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 I've just decided Michele Platini is a ****. I think so too.
dandannieldanok Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 How'd you mean? Numerous racism incidents regarding Spanish fans and of course Luis Aragones himself.
Ashley Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 I like that Cup. Once again Well done Spain. Next European Championships: Poland & Ukraine.
Sparky Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 I like that Cup. Once again Well done Spain.Next European Championships: Poland & Ukraine. Only if they get thier act together fast Wherever it is England will go in to it as world champions
Alexikokopops Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Anyone else notice Sergio Ramos' Antonio Puerta t-shirt? I want to know what it said on it, I'm curious.
fox123 Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 I have a few various bets on Spain, including £40 @ 11/2 for them to win it! TA
Guest Bilo Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 I think so too. Platini is an anglophobic moron who will probably blame any post match crowd trouble on English hooligans. That's UEFA all over, they'll always find a way to blame the English.
Guest Bilo Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Numerous racism incidents regarding Spanish fans and of course Luis Aragones himself. Spanish fans have a long history history of racism, most notably directed towards England in 2004. But at least they ain't German.
Uncle Albert Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Just won the best £13 ever. So happy Spain won, Germany were truely awful tonight. Senna again was awesome along with Iniesta, Fabregas, Xavi and Fernado Torres. Had to laugh at Michael Ballack, not won a trophey for ages now. Germany, France and Italy are dead and buried compared to Spain, Holland and Portugal and dare I say it England? Roll on 2010.

That's UEFA all over, they'll always find a way to blame the English. It's not just the crowd trouble everything he says seems to be aimed at the English be it the National team, crowd trouble or Premier League also something he said yesterday about teams not being aloud in the Champions League if they have high debts seemed to be aimed at Man Utd and Chelsea. I cant stand him he's a complete knob head.
dandannieldanok Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Germany, France and Italy are dead and buried compared to Spain, Holland and Portugal and dare I say it England? Germany are less dead and buried than Holland and Portugal and England aren't even close to France and Italy
Uncle Albert Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Germany are less dead and buried than Holland and Portugal and England aren't even close to France and Italy How is that even possible? You seen the footballing quality that Portugal and Holland have shown and you think Germany are better? More fall you.
WetFlannel Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Can see Senna getting a big move. Really? Despite Villarreal finishing second in La Liga? I wouldn't say he particularly needs a big move.
dandannieldanok Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 How is that even possible? You seen the footballing quality that Portugal and Holland have shown and you think Germany are better? More fall you. Where were Holland and Portugal tonight then , results count not flashy football unless you have substance like Spain.
Uncle Albert Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Where were Holland and Portugal tonight then , results count not flashy football unless you have substance like Spain. At home? Dont know really could be anywhere. We will see come 2010.
Sparky Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 How is that even possible? You seen the footballing quality that Portugal and Holland have shown and you think Germany are better? More fall you. Since 2002 the Germans have reached a world cup final , a european championship final and a world cup semi . Playing good football is not the be all and end all . Holland fail nearly as much as England !
MikeyT Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Can see Senna getting a big move. Hope so. He has totally impressed me this tournament and i'll be honest id not really heard of him before the Euros. Good luck to him. Looks like a superb player!

Playing good football is not the be all and end all . Holland fail nearly as much as England ! Yes, they have got to these final's but real footballing teams have beat them in both. Holland and Portugal have got young squads, where they are just gelling as a team. Just like Spain.
coale39 Posted 29 June 2008 Posted 29 June 2008 Where were Holland and Portugal tonight then , results count not flashy football unless you have substance like Spain. I think Germany were lucky to get to the final. I think Holland and Portugal were a bit inconsistant and a bit unlucky in their matches.

Just like Spain. All potential though mate , dont forget England 2006 golden generation !! Holland impressed me they really did , the Portugese didnt , over rely on Ronaldo and if Nuno Gomes is thier best striker then they have problems . Germany will always be a tough side to beat and if my life depended on it id back them in front of Portugal for 2010 , Holland i agree may well make a step up I think Germany were lucky to get to the final. I think Holland and Portugal were a bit inconsistant and a bit unlucky in their matches. Both were well beaten and both deserved it
