Watching Croatia match, every time Croatia attack, Brazil start flapping

If England got them in world cup, Cole + Lampard would cut them to ribbons

:england:

Got £3 on Brazil they'd best win after france only managed a draw, thats what I get for offering my financial commitment to them pfft

They´re not even HALF the uber-favourite-team that everybody expected. IF a decent team like ENG, GER or TCH manages to neutralize Kaka, they have a chance.

 

[Kinag]

Look at all the Englishmen..

MOTHERLAND!

 

[Thorwyn]

eh?

 

[Mordenaar]

Bloody Chelski fans. Cole and Lampard pfft...

Gerrard is ALWAYS better at going forward than Lamard, just Lampard thinks he is.

Anyway, know what your saying. England will win them in Midfield, and set pieces. Also watching it, and their 4 best players, Adriano, Ronaldinho, Kaka and Ronaldo all stay up the pitch at the set pieces. With the quality of Beckham's crosses they can do one of 2 things.

1. Conseed a goal or 2 due to the quality of the Beckham cross onto the head of Crouch etc.

OR

2. Defend with a few more players and then loose theire piercing counter attacks. Seems both ways England would be very effective against them. Nonetheless, i think England wont play Brazil as this is my prediction;

Brazil to go out in the Quarters,
England vs Germany final,
Peter Crouch scores winning goal in the final ( history repeats itself- Look at 1966... Jimmy greaves was injured before the world cup as the star striker. ( rooney is injured as the star striker ) which gave the new striker, Geoff Hurste, ( Peter Crouch in this year- could also be Theo Walcott also, but i dont think he has what is needed ) to shine during the world cup.

:england: For the World Cup!!!

Ronaldo played like a bag of wet lettuce - how many touches did he get on the ball? About 7?

Croatia played really well - imo it would have been a matter of time for them to get an equaliser, unfortunately the whistle blew first.

 

[Dorimor1]

Brazil have great attacking players but their weakness is in the defense. Judging by how they played today any top team could have scored.

I don't think they will win the world cup.

 

[Everz]

Brazil played like a wet noodle.

 

[Phooka]

was still alot better to watch then the france switzerland game.. that just made me wanne QQ irl if it wasnt for france pulling a draw xD

 

[Thadius]

Ronaldo had one kick all game

John Motson was ripping the piss out of him all game

 

[Vladamir]

Ronaldo is just plain shit now. He complains about people calling him fat and slow, how about lay off the burgers and start running then?.

Mark Lawrenson though, absolute legend on the commentary tonight.

John Motson: Here comes Ronaldo making a forward run.
Mark Lawrenson: Can't say i've seen too many of them tonight from him.

Second half one was a cracker though;

J.M: Unsuprisingly Ronaldo's coming off here.
M.L: Unsuprisingly is right John, he's coming off the pitch quicker than he's moved on it this evening. He's wiping the sweat off his head but i don't think he realises theres none there.

Last one i picked up;

J.M: Robinho really seems to be going for it tonight Mark.
M.L: He seems to have covered more distance in the last 7 minutes than Ronaldo did in the previous 70.

Absolute class

 

[mikke]

Brazil vs Croacia sucked ass. Croacia should of won..

and ronaldo! wtf was ut with him? looked like someone had cidnapped the real one and just placed a dolly out on the field.. i didnt see him run once in the match!

 

[Thadius]

That Robinho comment made me /lol irl

 

[Shagrat]

Croatia deserved a point from that imo.

Czech Rep have impressed me most from the first round of matches. Cut the US to ribbons, Arsenal have bought a gem in Rosicky

 

[leviathane]

Think Ronaldo ate all the pies tbh.

ftw.

 

[Glacier]

Look at all the Englishmen..

MOTHERLAND!

rofl's, reppet.

 

[Coldbeard]

Shame Brazil won, dislike that hyped up golden boys team. And lol at Ronaldo, was just randomly staggering about doing nothing.

 

[Marc]

Ronaldo was dire!

The thing about Brazil though, that for me, no other team in the world cup has, is the ability to just muster a goal from no where, like Kaka's last night. His first touch for his goal was top drawer and the shot was sublime. Once they click they will be a very hard team to beat.

 

[[HB]Jpeg]

u all flaming brazil.. whom i agreee didnt play well at all ... but what a few seeem to be forgetting is that england played shite also.

ive watched nearly every match thus far "have watched all big teams" and only teams IMO that have played really well was Argentina and Ivory Coast . Most the other matches were boring.

altho ill wait till every1 has played 2 games to make a choise on whom i reckon will win .. ATM for me the Argies will take it.

 

[Thorondorito]

dont forget czech republic... they played quite well

 

[Marc]

A nation boasting the likes of Adriano, Ronaldo (maybe), Robinho, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Ermerson, Cafu, Carlos, Juan and Lucio are always gonna be there or thereabouts in the latter stages.

 

[Vladamir]

dont forget czech republic... they played quite well

They pummelled seven shades of shit out of the USA, and i loved every minute of it

Stupid yanks can go back to their "World Series Baseball" whereby only north american teams can compete

 

[pip]

imo it is hard to look good playing good teams

 

[Marc]

USA fucked up by not naming Freddy Adu in the squad, that kid is top drawer. I expect Real Madrid to try and tempt him in the summer.
