World Football Championship 2006, Let the mania commence ! Options

[milanius]

Okayyy... someone had to to this, someone who is in love with the game, enough of a man to admit he's a huge couch-potato and watches even the least significant games... but enough beatin' round the bush ! LET'S PLAY FOOTBALL !
Today is the opening game of WFC2006 and Germany is opening it against Costa Rica. Predictions, anyone ? (Starge, wink wink )

Netherlands. They can get really sensitive if you only say Holland. Holland is a region in Netherlands. Well actualy it's two regions, South and North, but it was one region long ago.

ooookay... Netherlands, then.

On the contrary: I am in the mood to discuss that. Why did we perform so pathetic, why the hell is Savo Milošević in the team, and why is Koroman the only one who can make a serius attempt to score a goal. Why is everything going slow and why are our boys falling under presure. They were making a lot of mistakes when a Dutch player aproaches. I'm telling you man, Savo Milošević  is bad luck Not that I'm saying it's his fault we lost the match, but everytime i see him in the team I say: ''NOOOOOOOOO''.

Why ?... heh... [sarcastic mode]Weeeel, Mr. Savo absolutely MUST play and get in the way of Kezman (who, BTW, doesen't even NEED Savo to stumble and fall every time he gets into a scoring position); and of course Petko simply MUST test his weaker defensive players, like Nenad Djordjevic, instead of just giving people who would "want" to play with all their 'soul' (whatever this hypothetic 'soul' thing might be...) a place in starting 11... and yes, people like Nikola Zigic MUST be kept in store untill the very end, like a WW2 German Secret Weapon, up untill 10 minutes to end when nothing can really be mended anymore.[/sarcastic mode]

I am disguisted, btw. No need to tell me things I already know, no need to tell me we're the slowest damn team in Europe for years... no need, good buddie. I am not the national selector and I do not chose who is going to get out on the pitch - otherwise, I'd at least try to be gutsy and give some other people, who are younger and braver, a chance. But everyone can be general after the battle.

Oh, The Netherlands has the chance alright. The fact is they
got 3 points from this one. We needed at least a draw against the Orange. Now it's all completly diffrent: We MUST defeat Côte d'Ivoire, and take at least a draw against Argentina. Needless to say, it's easier say than done.

EDIT: I'm surius what do people think about Brazil - Croatia? Result?

*HUGE Sigh* HyPNO, a human being really doesen't "need" to do anything. A human being only has to die when it's his/hers time. Everything else is optional...

p.s.: Croatia is Brazil's toast, and you can quote me on that - no insult intended, but Brazil is just that awesome. They're the champs already, we can only sit & watch them play beautifully.

That's a brilliant piece of sarcasm here And I consider Savo Milošević a bad luck because everytime i bet on the team he was playing, I lost that bet. Osasuna screwed me once for 3,000 dinars!

Well, I wouldn't go so far as disguisted... Let's face it: Our national team always sucked (I'm refering to Serbian team not Former Yugoslavia team). Lets juist remember the previus game with Netherlands Now THAT'S disguisting.

I am not the national selector and I do not chose who is going to get out on the pitch - otherwise, I'd at least try to be gutsy and give some other people, who are younger and braver, a chance. But everyone can be general after the battle.

True, you are not the national selector. But mister Petković should know better.

Oh pardon me. I meant we must do that if we wish to continue the competition.

p.s.: Croatia is Brazil's toast, and you can quote me on that - no insult intended, but Brazil is just that awesome. They're the champs already, we can only sit & watch them play beautifully.

Hmm, I absolutly agree that Brazil wins, but being a toast? I'm not so sure. And why would I be insulted? I told you that I'm half-Croatian, but I don't have any relationships with Croatians. Except I was born there.
