I doubt you would know football if it kicked you in the face. You support a team that has produced more Karate kicks than football players. > > -- > MANCHESTER UNITED FC > CHAMPIONS LATEST > ENGLAND 2009 - UEFA 2008 - WORLD 2009

Last match of group stage in 66, where Germany needed a draw against Spain and won 2-1 (with that well-known Emmerich goal from an impossible angle I think). Joachim

Marin had to : come into a difficult situation against Serbia. Well true. i've liked Marin's performances in the league even though he plays for an enemy (same as Oezil). But the WC is a different level. Of course it can be otherwise... Mueller often looked lost in the CL but looked to be getting it together right at the end. I was unsure about it so never clamored for all the young Bayern players to play for Germany at the same time. But Mueller has taught us all a lesson. -- ciao, Bruce drift wave turbulence: http://www.rzg.mpg.de/~bds/

Well Germany has lots of little guys these days (Marin, Oezil, Trochowski), enough to make Schweini look like a big guy :-) (he's only 175 or so) -- ciao, Bruce drift wave turbulence: http://www.rzg.mpg.de/~bds/ |
