i see there're lots of holland fans arround here, well count me in too about yesterday's surprise, Greece defeating Portugal 2-1, unbelieveble. i didn't saw the game, but i've watched the results on LiveScore.com, and later i've seen the highlights. it's a shemafull result for figo & co i wonder how Germany will do this year, they dissapointed a lot, espacially after losing 5-1 in Romania anyway, Go Netherland
Well, they won about as many titles as Chelsea who invested slightly more money...and it wasn't exactly ManU's greatest season ever either... Next year, Bayern will win it all! We are getting Lucio, most probably Frings, possibly Deco. I hope we get rid of Kahn and keep Ballack. Selling him to Barca would be stupid...
You WANT to sell Kahn? He's declined a bit but still... Who would you get? Who in their right mind would want to come to the Bundesliga anyway? I can't believe we play on Tuesday, that SUCKS. I was told it was today.
Kahn has been getting on my nerves with his antics, and he has failed miserably like three or four times in a row in the biggest games. Plus, he has been trying to act like a cool pimp in bars and clubs in Munich I sometimes go to...smokes, drinks, has a big mouth. I would like to see him replaced either by his sub, Michael Rensing, or by Timo Hildebrand from Stuttgart. Lucio and Frings will be great additions. I would actually consider getting Hamann back as well.
Can't say I've seen those 2 guys play, but as long as Kahn is the starter on the national team, I'm guessing he's betetr than those two? I know he's had some social issues in the past, something with adultery or whatever? But still, aside from Buffon, he's the only other goalkeeper that has an actual presence in goal. Maybe he's really deteriorted in the last few months, I don't know. Lucio is a good signing, he will gain excellent excellent experience playin for a team as well structured as Bayern. He'll become a vital part of the Brazil team once he gains the discipline from Bayern.
I am extremely excited about tuesday's game... I get so pumped when Holland plays, I don't know anyone who goes nuts like I do when it comes to football. I shock people as usually I'm quite a quiet guy. Anyway, I'm Dutch os obviously I'm hoping Oranje will be looking to cause some damage on tuesday. I'm not sure we'll be able to, but I'm praying to God that we at least beat the Germans. I'm scared about our defensive line. Bouma is such a piece of crap. I can't believe he is in there. I'd actually rather Frank de Boer back instead of this guy. He always makes these simple mistakes, it's hard to believe he can make the national team. I guess that shows how badly we're doing in our back line. Even if the German guys up front are crap (who is first choice? Bobic, Klose?), they will still be able to sneak past this guy if he gets the chance. Hopefully Stam will be waiting close by to clean up his mess. I'd much rather have Cocu at the back, too bad that van Bommel is injured otherwise he could take on the defensive midfield role. Even Heitinga I'd put ahead of Bouma, though he hasn't much experience. Hmmm ... I'm not sure how we should play. I'm definitely up for having Robben on the left with van der Meyde on the right as wingers (or Seedorf hanging on the right) with van Nistelrooy or Makaay as the lone forward up front. Other than that the bondscoach has some problems... I don't know if we'll be able to progress but I think the match against the Germans is the crucial one. If we lose that, we're out. Czechs are a bit too strong, am very VERY scared of them. I see the Germans as a team we might have a chance against. Still, though, I'm not very confident AT ALL.
Arsenal's greatest season ever: UK title Bayern's greatest season ever: Champions League title, German title, German Cup, World Team Cup title
Point taken, but Arsenal still had an unbelievable season by going undefeated. Mind you, I'm not a fan of Arsenal, Chelsea, or ManU, I just wanted to bring up Arsenal's miracle in contrast with Chelsea's attempt to buy a title.
Wow, what a heartbreaker for England, 2 goals by Zidane in extra time. Steven Gerrard will have alot of questions to answer after playing that ball back to James. Beckham's missed penalty was a killer as well, but what a save by Barthez.
What the hell happened to england?!!? they are going to hear it all the way across the bay of biscay. as far as arsenal is concerned they were by far the best in the EPL,but they were lucky as well. They should have lost to united at old trafford but RVN missed the penalty at the 90th minute.
props to zidane,he's the only player in the wrld who can do that....best player of the world? no doubt he's something special
