So here we go... 1 hour left to the Swiss - France match. :ph34r:

The best team we had the last years, I mean, references like AC Milan, Arsenal, Rennes, Lyon, Köln, AS Rom, VFB Stuttgart, Auxerre, Frankfurt, Sparta Prag and Lille. And of course, never lost this year :D
And slowly the U17-European Champions from 2002 are moving into our 'big' team.
I'm sorry, pretty excited.

Hopp Schwiiz :)

Edit: Is this even the correct word in english, "France" ? Or did I exchange something? Too much languages learning at the moment..
 
The Polish keeper had a blinder but I don't think Germany were that good.

Still there have been some good games in the first week, now it gets really interesting....
 
Sounds like there was a bit of trouble over there. Little condemnation in the press though..

Now if it had been England fans...

Breaking News........From the BBC Sport online reports:

"German and Polish hooligans have a history of violence"

Well, being hooligans they are hardly going to be noted for their crochet skills or knocking up a quick soufflé in the cocina are they?

Tall man scores, poor trinidad marksman must have felt dirty helping him up :p
Good on TnT to hold England off for 83 mins. Did well.
 
England were very poor.

We'll be coming home early at this rate.

Is it's Sven's plan to bore the opposition into submission?
 
Wow, if we lose against Ecuador we will rank 2nd and play most probably against England in the 1/8 finals!
Although that is very unlikely to happen, I would feel very sorry for England ;)
 
Argentina 3 up at half time, apparently looking very tasty in the process.....

Of their 2nd goal:

"It was a masterclass in quality, balance, passing, control and finishing. If I see a better goal in the World Cup I'm going home. It was 24 passes of total control. They tore them to shreds."

Well we shall see Mr Claw - I accept that England are playing shite at the moment but we have won the first 2 games, have not conceded a goal and we have qualified with a game to spare.

Im some ways I would prefer to play Germany - If we want to win the world cup we have to beat the best teams. Whilst the Germans are dangerous they are a shadow of their former selves and you never know. We were crap in Italia '90 until we played Germany and I think everyone would agree that we played them off the park.

PS - Perhaps I'm the eternal optimist but I think its important to get behind our lads and be confident! And if we play Germany and loose then I would say good luck and hope you get to the final (and then get stuffed 8-0 by Holland!!) :p

Look, the thing is England didn't play THAT badly. They have played two teams that had no ambition to score, and just wanted to camp in the defence. Like Brazil, we struggled because we had no roome etc. We have a few things to work out, most importantly the relatoinship between Gerrard and Lampard. But we will work them out. Our squad is really incredible, we have great players.

When we play the better teams, those teams that want to score against us, and not just stop us, and when we can use the powerful midfield we have in a proper organised way (ie let Gerrard get up and have a bit of freedom and peg Lampard back!!!) then we could prosper. At the moment I would fancy our chances more against Germany than Equador. But I really don't want to play Germany until as late as possible, because if we won (which I believe we probably could) then the excitement would go from the country. If we lost, then it would be gell for me here!

I want to play Germany in the last rounds, with all my sausage guzzling chums!
 
In my view England played a dirty game.

That's terrible. I read about it in the paper but didn't give it much thought, but now I have seen it, it is pretty bad. It is near invisible until you see it blown out like that so I am not surprised we (England) got away with it, but some kind of apology is surely due.
