GERMANY 2006 WORLD CUP!!! (official thread)

[Varangian]

yes ronaldinho is a good player but too much shown in the media
there are plenty like him or better
sponsors and teams and advertisement all the same purpose:
PROFIT
If brazil wins this cup it would the greatest steal of the century:
fat ronaldo
old R. Carlos
non talented Dida
Kaka' maybe more motivated than usual (no it's a dream)
Ronaldinho mr give me the ball so i'll make the show
etc.........

[Varangian]

this year:
Togo world champion!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah!!!!!!! what a joke this competition!

yes that was the great brazil
now with the money and business behind football the world cup winners are fakes
it's only a matter of making profit, i work in the football world and it's only business.

so pele wasn't a stand alone player? no cause the rest of that team is remembered the same way he is.

The first 3 World Cups Brazil won were beautifull, but played in a completly different era. Sure there's money involved today, which mass sport don't have??
Point is: Football Art stills wins, and Brazil it's here to prove. You will NEVER watch a boring Brazil vs Argentina game. Both teams plays beautifull to watch soccer, and both teams plays in the attack. THAT's soccer.

By the way, what you do in the football World, if you don't mind saying? I know MANY people .

I think Brazil has close to 100 million so you have a better chance would you not conceed.

Yes Robinho has also got huge potential as Zidane has stated this week. But if Messe is fit I'd have him in my team before him.

My vote goes with Cap. What is the national sport there anyway?

Steal?? Why steal?? What a stupid comment. If the best team in the World today wins, there's no steal.
Fat Ronaldo, Old R. Carlos and MANY others ....stills kicking @ss!!

BTW we gave Spain a serious fright in the last major final with only a penalty saving your blushes. Spain the country with the best and most expensive football league who have failed continiously to win the World Cup.

BAh!!!! Spain all the way!!!
