It's gonna be so funny. Salomon Kalou is not gonna get a Dutch passport, so he's going to play in the World Cup for Ivory Coast and he's gonna score the winning goal against The Netherlands.

Yep, and Verdonk is gonna get lynched. Which is a good thing. It's a win-win situation!

Well I don't really care about it actually. I'm not gonna support The Netherlands anyway, can't stand Van Basten.

Go Sweden!!!! \m/

England are gonna win it!

Well according to alot of our media...they seem to forget the loss to Northern Ireland in September and only remember the lucky win against Argentian last month.

I do think we have a really good chance but to win a tournament like this there are a hell of a lot of things that have to click. Luck is one of them and i think we have been handed a favourable group. We need to kick on now (no pun intended) to win all our friendlies and get a winning mentality in the team. To often our players have looked uninterested.

We have the strongest team we have had in a long time....whether Sven is the right coach is up for debate though. Brazil are awesome as usual though.

That is a very curious relationship there - between the team and the...ahem..."media"... I think this is another case of building up the team's chances and the public's expectations of them, so Fleet Street et al can go right to work knocking them back down again if the campaign doesn't meet their expectations...selling shitloads of papers in the process, of course.

Oh, and thanks for reminding me about Brazil again.

France have a killer team... a long time ago!

Now, we have old players, with too money, victories, ego, marketing, etc... the old good error: the impossibity to replace old too prestigious players in decline, intouchable stars...

I never really love this generation, with the exception of Candela, Giuli, one or two others... i prefer the Platini generation! Magic! Arrg, France - Deutschland, world cup 82, in Sevilla... the match of the century. I saw it when i was a child, and i resaw yesterday, in full version, on the FIFA site.

No just of football match, a greek tragedy!
