Football Season 09-10/2010 World Cup Thread

The fact is the best team over the last few years are going to win the World Cup tomorrow....

Holland?

Only when Van Bommel not gets the red card and we don't have to play with 10 men.

[Parkol]

I am afraid Spain will be the champion, as I said before but I would like to see how Holland will win today, but... Spain is stronger.

Why the f*ck have Lineker and co. had to put suits on for the Final?

[Undertaker]

It's probably a BBC thing. They always do it for the Snooker, although Snooker does have a dress code

[Patrick Bateman]

It looks like a crappy remake of Reservoir Dogs.

[Undertaker]

Be interesting to see Webb's position on the De Jong foul. The first major incident and he's got it badly wrong.

[Patrick Bateman]

Somebody's bound to get sent off. I couldn't believe he didn't let Spain play advantage.

[Undertaker]

It's been pretty drab so far. Spain, like you said, have been the best side over the past two years but i've been a bit dissapointed with them. There doesn't seem to be a lot of pace to their play. Far too many five yard sideway passing and backward passes IMO.

[Patrick Bateman]

Well they miss Torres firing on all cylinders. Got 1-0 written all over it - Spain are the new Arsenal.

[Undertaker]

If Robben had 2 feet, he would have buried that. It was obvious what he was going to do.

You can see Torres coming on and winning it for Spain.

[Patrick Bateman]

God, this is grim.

[Dipso]

Oh, it's so dull.

[Patrick Bateman]

It's like watching George Graham's Arsenal versus Wimbledon in about 1987.

[Undertaker]

Thank god for that. The Dutch embarressed themselves tonight IMO. They don't need to kick lumps out of the opposition and cheat like they did.

[Undertaker]

Might try and do one of those best XI's later but for me, player of the tournament was Puyol.
