nice article. Hail Trap!
nice article. Hail Trap!
Its good to hear Trap and Tardelli bigging up Croatia. Stuff like Tardelli's I am scared of Croatia and his 'plan' that we draw with Croatia then beat Spain and Italy. In Italian speak that means beat Croatia and try draw with the other two. Croatia will be Brazil 70 with Cruyff and Maradona playing cameos come next Sunday. Let the games begin.

Not sure how close that Spain team will be to the one we face. Iniesta was on the bench with Llorente, Mata and Torres. Silva was up front with Busquets and Negredo
Silva scored the winner very late on, despite Spain having 78% possession and nine shots on target (according to Sky Sports)
How many on here have any of this stuff!!!Originally Posted by BonnieShels
Get into the mood, not long now,lol
Report on the Spain - China game last night: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/...cernet&cc=5739
Sounds like China had some good chances on the counter attack, and were unfortunate not to be ahead before Spain eventually did score
Unsurprisingly it was Iniesta who made the difference

Looks like Torres is trying to play his way out of the team

Good news if true!!
He got a fair whack on the thigh in the game against Norway
Things swinging in our favour a bit! Olic is a loss. Any update on Modric?
'And Crouch must score'
That just elevates Jelavic though, and he's a threat. Olic has more nuisance value from what little I know of him. He strikes me as a very hard working front man, constantly running across the back 4 and chasing the ball. That might allow us a little more time on the ball before we hoof it!
Stutts, jelavic's international record is poor, I think. Two goals in 18 apps or so said the World Soccer Euro 2012 preview magazine.

'And Crouch must score'
Exactly, he is one of those players than you are screaming to be taken off, then he pops up with a goal off his shin. This will surely affect the tactics of Croatia?
What's the atmosphere like at home lads? Euro fever gripping the country WC 1990 style?
It depends where you are and who you talk to.
Its not quite 1990 yet.

@Ciaran_O - Eduardo da Silva: “I have calculation for how Croatia can get to 1/4 finals with 4 points. Victory against Ireland and a draw against Italy.”
"We lost because we didn't win"- Ronaldo
Can anyone remember what happened the last time we drw 0-0 on Hungary? I think Aldo "ran his legs to stumps" and later we got to a WC Q/F.
Croatia will be massively confident after last night. Though we started with the 11 that are likely to take the field on Sunday, have we showed our hand? We're usually more open in friendlies. Is there a need for a 5th midfielder? It's very late to be changing tact but mixed signals can be good as long as they are planned for within and cause confusion in opposition trenches.

A Championship: 4 years - 8 first teams - 0 financially ruined.
First Division 2014: 7 first teams and a B team.
Opportunity lost for new clubs to join GLITW.
Bilic was at the game and Morning Ireland played a clip from him saying he doesn't believe that that's the first eleven etc...
