Football World Cup 2014

I wonder what their reaction is, who they blame etc.

Some of the players were exceptionally bad last night (Marcelo, Luiz) and others were shit for every single game (Fred, Hulk, either rightback, Paulinho) and everyone else being pretty poor except Neymar and Silva.

Scolari's decisions were baffling, taking certain players in the squad and leaving behind the likes of Coutinho, Marquinos, Luis Felipe, Miranda, Lucas, Firmino and so on. Playing certain every game regardless of their ability or form.

Also why aren't Brazil producing as many high calibre players as before? Surely something needs addressing in their development of players, they seem to have nothing good but CBs, DMs and AMs.

They are developing as a country...less kids playing football 16 hours a day.

Brazil in the 3rd placed match will be funny, bet they don't even want to play. Be especially entertaining if it's against Argentina.

 

[Gwadien]

This is a bit boring

 

[Ch3tan]

It's a good tactical game... last night was an anomaly.

 

[old.user4556]

Still boring though

 

[Olgaline]

indeed, quality has simply been lacking too much in key situations for it to be a good game so far.

 

[Embattle]

Holland are just too fucking slow.

 

[CorNokZ]

Zzzzzzzz

 

[Billargh]

The only man wanting this so end 0-0.

 

[old.user4556]

Fuck me, how many times will that Dutch player play cross it ridiculously wide?

 

[Olgaline]

Messi is playing right ?

 

[Ch3tan]

Messi is lulling them into a false sense of security

 

[Olgaline]

Right, so any second now ?

 

[Raven]

How many times does messi want to give the ball away?

 

[Shagrat]

Ron Vlaar is wasted at Villa!!

 

[Ch3tan]

Robben has been far more productive than messi this game I feel.

 

[Olgaline]

Two massive opportunities wasted by Argentina

 

[Embattle]

Neither side has been that impressive, both wasteful and slow at times and even worse was the feeling they were both trying to reach ET and now penalties.

 

[Olgaline]

Argentina still had the most initiative..

 

[Shagrat]

Can't see either of these two beating ze Germans unless there is a massive improvement between now and the final

 

[Olgaline]

Can't see either of these two beating ze Germans unless there is a massive improvement between now and the final

Funny, I can actually easily see that, due to germany's style of play...I hope not though

 

[Embattle]

This game certainly counter balances the great game yesterday, I think this game is towards the bottom in terms of quality.

 

[Embattle]

The Argies have certainly been lucky this world cup, it has to run out soon.

 

[CorNokZ]

Borefest. Hope Germany show them how football is supposed to be played

 

[Turamber]

That wasn't a good game at all, very lacking in quality. The curse of the Aston Villa penalty taker strikes again!

Not that I particularly wanted Holland to win, hated Krul's gamesmanship against Costa Rica.

 

[Olgaline]

Prediction....
-----------------
Germany
Argentina
-----------------

Here's to hoping for a great final. Still clearly remember 86 and 90, both epic finals

 

[Billargh]

Wish I'd watched last night's match twice instead of that utter tosh.

 

[BloodOmen]

 

[soze]

I was going to say I feel sorry for the Dutch keeper after the press keep pointing out that he has never saved a penalty but then I remember how much of a cunt him and Krul were when trying to put off the opponents. If that is not against the rules it should be. For now I need to be content with how much of a cunt it made him look.

 

[Ctuchik]

I wonder what their reaction is, who they blame etc.

Anyone they can. Some of those asshat supporters even tried to burn Neymars shirt after the game for whatever fucking reason....
