That's what I meant, the only way he leaves is if someone pays his clause which really isn't much for the rich teams. For that reason you are right that is up to him but I highly doubt he will leave this season. He just needs a little more patience, one more year of patience is all we ask of him. Besides we don't want Reeko crying like a baby :grin:
Too bad it was MASA Rodriguez and not Severo Meza... Masa was just looking as he 'got taken' for that second goal pass. I was all " REALLY? You're just going to stand still and not continue?" That's what the veterans don't do anymore. Mathematically, we need a huge miracle to go to the next round and hope the Italians choke.
These refs are ****ing horrible. Bull**** penalty (perhaps one of the worst calls I've seen in soccer), second goal was off an OBVIOUS Pirlo foul.
I root for Italy, always have, but IMO, it looked like Buffon got Okazaki a lot more than the ball. I think Azzurri will bag a few more goals before the end, though.
Nice header! 3-3 Fun game. Although, with how this game determines the fate of another country....I'm pulling for an Italy win.
Italy may have played their worst defensive game in a very long time, & still won. Respect to Japan but we're 4 time world cup champs baby, elite teams always find a way, even when they play poorly. Bring on Brazil.
Horrible decision by the ref to award a penalty for Italy. The arm barely grazed the ball and had no effect on the play. But he previously damaged Italy, so it's all square. Brazil-Italia will be a treat once again.
Really fun game between Italy and Japan. I wasn't home to watch it, but I'm guessing Brazil/Mexico was less fun.
Well. We're not a worthy opponent for the Brazilians, either. We played much better, but not good enough. Still have a steep hill to climb in the qualifiers. YOU SHUT UP, mister Uprising, sir, you SHUT IT!!!!
