MC Prussian Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 He plays in the Premier League week in, week out, not a pansy European league. Do that in the Premier League on a Saturday afternoon and you'd get a booking, max. Germans are brilliant. This is not the Premier League, where you'd get away with this kind of tackle. This is the World Cup, with proper referees and not the likes of Alan Wiley. Not that I believe Cahill would get away with it playing for Everton, mind you. Serves the little f"cker right. The Cahill love fest on here is so totally undeserved.
dhermon Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 I cant wait for the excuses the aussie media will come out with for this disgusting display of shitfulness!!
maddog Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Germany playing such quality football. Why don't England play like this USA aren't that much stronger than the Aussies. Or is it we are a lot weaker than the Germans, probably.
Bert Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Four. Utterly brilliant. Let's not get carried away. They're playing against ten men. If it was this good against 11, you'd have a point. Still, you can only play what's in-front of you.

Northants Fox 3 Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 I'm watching a supposed live ITV feed on my computer but it's clearly behind what is happening on the TV, i've only just seen the fourth goal

Or is it we are a lot weaker than the Germans, probably. Exactly, there's nothing stopping us playing it around like the Germans are. Germans are pure class.

If one of your boys had've seen red for that i'm sure you'd say it was deserved.
MC Prussian Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Germany are a class of their own and their current efficiency and team work rate will carry them a long way. The Roos should be ashamed of sending such a terrible team to the World Cup - at least Low had the guts to sort it out, them Australians still come up with the same team that competed in the WC four years ago. Then again, it shows with what weak competition the teams in the AFC region are dealing in the qualifying stages.
Tilley Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Let's not get carried away. They're playing against ten men. If it was this good against 11, you'd have a point. Still, you can only play what's in-front of you. Agree with the bold part. Maybe we are getting carried away because we won't know how good they are until we've seen Spain, Brazil and Holland kick off their campaigns. However, this completely eclipses what we, the French and the Argentinians produced. I know I probably sound like a broken record but the Germans know how to get it done in major tournaments and they are proving that again. Vital we win our group and get one of the other three, in my opinion.
maddog Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 I'm watching a supposed live ITV feed on my computer but it's clearly behind what is happening on the TV, i've opnly just seen the fourth goal The supposed live Sky player online is also a minute+ behind the tv.

If one of your boys had've seen red for that i'm sure you'd say it was deserved. Can't believe some people on here still buy into that crap. How often have you seen Cahill come up with such a stupid move in the Premier League? That was in best Dennis Wise fashion. And yes, if one of our boys had seen red for this kind of tackle, I'd have agreed with the referee's decision. A tackle from behind is a tackle from behind. He wasn't even playing the ball!

shen Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Exactly, there's nothing stopping us playing it around like the Germans are. Germans are pure class. There obviously is since the English team don't play like it. The difference in movement and passing between the teams is quite clear.
MC Prussian Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Pipe the fook down. Still waiting for the day you come up with more than five words in any of your posts.

Still, you can only play what's in-front of you. They were playing pretty handsomely against 11 men. I've really enjoyed watching a decent team playing some decent footy, having had to go through the Algeria-Slovenia match, and the France-Uruguay one this is a breath of fresh air, even though it's so one sided.
Mee Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 There obviously is since the English team don't play like it. The difference in movement and passing between the teams is quite clear. And I agree with you on that one, but what I meant was that we have top quality players, and if we took a page out of the Germans book, it wouldn't do us any harm. Saying that, the Aussies are shocking
Narborough_fox Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 ITV commentators are utterly useless, the red card cost the Aussies the match.
Samilktray Posted 13 June 2010 Posted 13 June 2010 Still waiting for the day you come up with more than five words in any of your posts. Nerd.
