germany and ghana
germany: just work better - capello is just too stubborn to admit that what he is doing might not be working and when they are gonna be going vs opposition that is heaps better than what they’ve encountered in the group stages, 4-4-2’s that just “work” won’t cut it
ghana: their defenders don’t like going forward and they only play with one striker which packs the midfield in ghanas favor, the us’ pacy counterattacking game will be nullified by ghana if played correctly
I think if England play Arg in the quarters, it will be 1986 all over again OR it could be 1966 but I think 1986
To much in Arg’s favour, Messi and Maradona being manager
And England being shit of course.
Rooney gonna shoot his first goal against Germany and send them home!
Lies.
I know Germany is the higher ranked team out of the two, but for some reason I’d much rather see the US play Germany instead of Ghana. Ghana being the last African team in the World Cup is gonna have the whole homecourt advantage thing, and the US seems to respond better to being underdogs, and I must believe we’re favored over Ghana.
^_-;
Or it could be Germany vs. Argentina…which would be ANOTHER rematch from 2006…which would be ANOTHER rematch of the 2 finals these 2 have played already. :looney:
And Maradona being manager is in Argentina’s favor??? 
To me, Maradona is Argentina’s weak point: he doesn’t know WTF he is supposed to do half the time. He is more like “Hey, I have a fuckin’ plethora of star players! I should just put them on the field and let them do their thang!”
Homefield advantage for Ghana?
We should probably ask South Africa, Algeria, Cameroon, and Nigeria if that was working out with them?
Ghana and Nigeria were like the only 2 decent teams though lol.
Nigeria didn’t do so hot, Ghana did OK though.
And Galactic was saying that SINCE Ghana is the last African team remaining (unless Ivory Coast pulls some miracle against North Korea) they’re going to have to do well to represent! 
Home field advantage might mean something if you could actually hear chants from the crowd. But no, all you get is the constant droning noise from the vuvuzelas with no change to the decibel meter.
late to say it but USA USA!
South Africa missed out on qualifying only on differential. I don’t think anyone expected anything from them, or for them to be as close as they were to getting through, so in a sense it may have helped at least a little.
You could maybe say Algeria competed with England and U.S. which nobody expected, but Algeria is like 3000 miles away from South Africa and completely different culturally, so they might as well have been on the road.
It’s funny that everyone is complaining about the vuvuzelas, but when they pan the crowd, you always see random fans blowing them. I saw a bunch of Americans blowing those things with everything they got in that USA game. When I flipped to the England game I saw tons of Brits blowing them as well.
I bet if you guys were there you would all be blowing one of those too (no homo) just to troll the people watching at home.

Note sure if anyone has seen this yet but Steve Nash is CBS Sports World Cup correspondent: http://www.youtube.com/show/specialcupcorrespondent?s=1
:u: Hell yeah, I know I would.
Here is some conspiracy bs stuff I received in an e-mail.
Brazil won the World Cup in 1994. Before this, their last title was in 1970. If you add up, 1970 + 1994 = 3964.
Argentina won the World Cup in 1986 and before in 1978. Adding 1978 + 1986 = 3964.
Germany had won the Cup in 1990. Before that, in 1974. Adding 1990 + 1974 = 3964
Brazil won the 2002 World Cup and also won the cup in 1962. Checking: 1962 + 2002 = 3964.
Following this logic, the winner of the 2010 World Cup will be the same as in 1954.
Adding: 1954 + 2010 = 3964.
And the World Cup in 1954, was won by…Germany…
GASP!:amazed:
i picked Germany to win the whole thing, like i usually do every years 
if germany wins the world cup i ll eat my shoes

Italy so far. I reeaaaly hope they dont advance.
i want italy out too, buncha cheating twats
fuckin hate it when people fall down and grab the ball, forcin the play to stop, what a buncha pussies.
one slovakia guy got tackled and fell like a man, no whining no shit. :tup:
On a side note is anyone watching the Bud House mini-episode reality show? It’s actually pretty entertaining. Some of these people actually seem like legit fans and not just wannabe reality “stars”.
South Korea represent! wtf @ Patrick Dempsey wannabe representing USA… Some of the chicks are pretty hot. Being a futbol fan = +2 on a scale of 1 to 10 IMO, thus, some of these chicks become 8’s and 9’s. Argentina and Germany would get it. Greece is strictly average, but she’d also get it. She’s a straight up 4 normally, but +2 for being soccer fan brings her to a 6, and +1 for being a gamer brings her to a solid 7.
