when did I say any of them were bad?? Torres owns yeah I know Xavi only saw him play in UEFA, i have to wait till tomorrow to see how he does I just saw Spain's whole team, didn't do that before and they have everyone from Spanish league and a few from EPL, and Ive heard of all of them before except like two.. Also forgot about Pedro, and Pique... I don't know why you're telling me all this, you're acting like I called Spain bad, never did that lol, I actually think their pretty good.. I also would rather have them win over Brazil/ Argentina. |

lol, never going to not think that my own country isn't going to win, I'm going to be honest here, sports for me and probably everybody else is a biased opinion which is why I think their going to make it to the final 4/ finals.. But again as you stated what I said, its not nba, not nfl, not mlb, its dealing throughout players from the world, and teams that have to qualify to get to it, which may not mean much, but in the knockout round it def does when once you make a mistake you're down 1-0 and its not easy to come back and boom your gone.. France vs Brazil: One Mistake, just one, led to Brazil getting knocked out.. Italy vs France: One mistake on a foul, late in the second half, victory about to go to france, boom free kick, goal. 1-1 penalty kicks.. Mistake by Trezaguet.. boom italy wins It's hard to predict whose going to win, trust me.. Who knew that Italy was going to win the World Cup in 2006? I can bet, only a few. Everyone thought Brazil, blah blah blah, Brazil Brazil, and guess what they get knocked out by France.. I was very young in 2006 though, so I might not remember as much as I think I do |

i have to say Brazil in 2006 was a mixture of the new and the old, didn have great chemistry yet, and thats why they failed but now, all the young brazillian players have played with some big club and learned how to bring the teamwork with their fellow country mates, so shits gunna get interesting. hardest group is brazils, while the easiest is for spain. |

Just my two cents on the whole Italy issue. Just like I guess from what Baddy said, nobody was expecting a team like Italy to win it all back in Germany 2006, but looking over these four years that have passed by, a lot of the players are old and aren't playing like they use too in there prime. Just analyzing from these last couple of months on Italy, they seem to have lose that chemistry between the players. As I last posted, Italy was lacking a lot of communication in which some of those plays they could of capitalized on, but they couldn't. Adding onto that there was just too many bad passes which is the effect of miscommunication between the players. Just looking at the exhibition match between Mexico and Italy, there defense was just poor and just letting players enter too close within the box. Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UY7VhkTtcNc&annotation_id=annotation_659544&feature=iv If Italy is to go far in this World Cup, they need to improve in these dire categories, if not, might as well pack it up and go home. Also just because Italy is the "defending champions" they can't get overconfident when it comes to playing countries in which they "know" they can beat, because so far in this cup, there have been so many upset losses and draws. I really think Spain is going to win it all because of the players and how well they work together. They spanked Poland 6-0 in there exhibition match, and the combination of the strikers and the midfielders pretty much set the tone for the rest of the game. You never know what could happen in these games though, one bad pass, one great pass, miscommunication, great communication, and etc can change the game. Just like the Nike slogan says "Write The Future." |

Did Baddy really say he doesn't watch EPL and fuck them, then really tell people they don't know about "soccer" all the time LOL If you don't watch the EPL, you know nothing about soccer at all bro, it's the most competative and easily the best league in the world.

woah, you're stupid Watch Serie A before you speak kid, I said I don't pay attention/watch EPL because I'm Italian and I watch my own league fag called '' Italian Serie A'', and I think Serie A is more competitive than fucking EPL, I think you're either drunk or high, '' competative''.. I also never said '' fuck them '' Edited by The Situation, Jun 15 2010, 11:27 PM.

Well actually I believe that Italy being the defending champion, they have the responsibility of setting the tone for the cup. Imagine how Mexico felt after they beat Italy that game, even though it was just an international friendly, for the Mexican team it was such a huge confident booster realizing that they just beat the world champions. You keep saying that Italy "always starts slow", but being the champions, they can't afford to "start slow" every game, because for the opposition, it gives them that sense that they can beat the champs. |

I was drunk you were right haha celebrating Boston gettin blow away, anyway don't get me wrong Serie A was the best league for a long time, you have Juventus, Milan and Inter. Also had a few Players of the year, Zidane, KAKA to name a couple, It's still not as competitive as the English League right now, i used to watch the Serie A league too when i was into soccer. There is a reason why the EPL is ranked first in European competitions for the last 5 years, that's just because it's a better league right now. Sure historicaly Serie A crushs the EPL as far as stats go. Edited by i-deR, Jun 16 2010, 09:41 AM.

I agree that them starting off slow doesn't help, but obviously it doesn't.. Once it matters and its knockout round then we'll have to see, if Italy isn't playing well still, then fuck, but I think by the last game they'll be ready to play Holland/Cameroon Also about spain losing wutsup? |

That's what I want to see fuck yeah, now about Spain being the ''best'' here.. Maybe people have an opinion way too early.. Red-i an Italian team won UEFA, and since you were drunk not going to argue with you about that anymore.. If Spain/ loses/ties here, uhmmm will be very good for all the other teams |
