World Cup Match Thread DAY 2

[yankspurs]

Hahahahaha.

FinnYid must be in tears because Van Gaal is a shit manager apparently.

Tim Sherwood should be Holland's manager

There goes our hopes of LVG getting smashed in WC as revenge....

Extremely harsh.

He's been a world class 'keeper and will go down as a Real Madrid legend bursting through as a teenager.

Yes, he's on the decline currently but he deserves more respect.

Really? Why exactly, he did well with a gallactico team ahead of him, never thought him as world class, that would put him at the top of the tree, often probe to errors, not shit by any means but his decision making sometimes is woeful and has happened all through his career. As others have said he keeps out keepers who are far better than him.

Opinions of course

robben take a bow son, that was f**king brilliant, pace and composure at its best

 

[CosmicHotspur]

I wouldn't be surprised if John Terry was on the touchline waiting to run on the pitch at the end of the game and celebrate with Holland.

 

[yankspurs]

Somewhere in Spain, Diego Lopez is laughing uncontrollably

 

[Geyzer Soze]

Holy crap!!!

 

[Syn_13]

What bugs me about Spain is that they have the arrogance to assume that their style of football is the only way the play. They never have a plan B, not picking Llorente despite his amazing form this season shows that. I'm glad they're not doing well and hope they don't win. Time for a change.

Chile can replicate this.

Their style of football and the pace on the counter attack...Spain won't be looking forward to it thats for sure!

 

[LukaMotion]

Rampage.

 

[nailsy]

Spain are in so much trouble now. Chile will probably only need a draw against them to go through.

 

[beats1]

Did i hear right no Negrado either?

No Negredo, Michu and Llorente, nor others that should be there.

If I was spanish manager I wouldnt have picked that squad
Mata
Silva
Iniesta
Carzola
Koke
Xavi

They don't offer too much different. Don't underestimate Spain, those basterds have the ability to come back from this

 

[DuDe]

OK, like many of you, I was on a real downer after last night's shocking, wankfest of a match.

Tonight, I am feeling much, much better thank-you - at Spain's expense.

 

[felmani26]

so anyone still not convinced by lvg?

Pah, he can mastermind his national side raping the current world champions but can he do it on a rainy January night up at Stoke?!

Yea, let's see how good he is then!

Um, although they did start Costa to be fair....

Lol I remember some people on here not wanting him when we were linked a while ago...... Apparently he was past it

 

[Shadydan]

Van Gal could have been ours

 

[Tom Pops]

Robben has always been a very good player but he always used to strike me as a bit of a big game bottler. Heynckes seemed to really finally get the very very best out of him.

 

[tototoner]

The missus just said we are decking the house in orange tomorrow, I told her yesterday not to bother as the Dutch would go out in the 1st round

Tippy tappy or death. That's the Spanish philosophy.
