Cool Netlon, I hope too. Ajax is really a strong team and I hope to meet them in the final matches of champion's league. |

van der vaart - a hot new talent chivu - basically the most important player, captain machlas - supposed to be the lethal striker mido - better than machlas, striker o'brien - the american midfielder, becoming more important every match van der meyde - right winger, fast the thing with the squad is that the important players are very young and inexperienced. also players like ibrahimovic from sweden are now on the transferlist after only 1 year... it's going to be tough in europe |

For next season Juve is interest to: -Nesta -Cannavaro -Rio Ferdinand -Klose -Veron -Vieira |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
vieira would come in handy why nesta and cannavaro-u have montero and tudor |

Juve want to buy Nesta or Cannnavaro or Rio Ferdinand, obviously only one between these three defensive players. Nesta is probably the best defensive player in the world but he's very expensive. Probably we'll sell Thuram :( so we'll need another great defensor. In the last period Tudor didn't play as defensor but as midfield and he was very good too. |

Hmmm.. this isn't really a world cup thread anymore is it ? never mind, I'm tempted to forget it as well, now that a hugely un-talented and tedious German side, benefitting from a favourable draw and good fortune are into the final. once again. zzzz |

barça is out of money so there will pass a few years before we win something again |

I hope Germany get thrashed 5-1 again to prove (like England proved to them) that they can be beaten ... convincingly. Korea's weaknesses were obvious all along, their luck ran out today. Germany have the BIGGEST players, the TALLEST players, the most ORGANISED players in the world. But the BEST players ? the most exciting ? most talented ? OK, I just dislike German football. Don't argue with me. I'm bitter 'cos England beat them 5-1 and they are in the final AGAIN .. remeber 1990 and 1996 ? It HURTS English people to see them there again, strutting around and acting generally superior I know its casual racism on my part and I'm not proud of it, but its the way I am. Maybe You don't all understand. Thats OK .I just won a bet Germany would reach the final, so I'm not too unhappy. |

The suspension of German playmaker Michael Ballack for picking up his second yellow card of the World Cup's knockout stages means that a key player will be barred from the final for the fourth tournament in a row. Central defender Laurent Blanc missed France's 3-0 win over Brazil in the 1998 final after being sent off against Croatia in the semi-final. In 1994, Italian defender Alessandro Costacurta was suspended for a second yellow card picked up in the semi-final against Bulgaria. Italy lost on penalties in the final against Brazil after a 0-0 draw. Four years earlier, Argentina had four players suspended for the final with West Germany, including forward Claudio Caniggia. Caniggia scored the equaliser in the 1-1 semi-final draw with Italy before getting a second yellow card. West Germany won the final 1-0 and two Argentina players were sent off. |

what do you think nacmat ? I think there have been few great midfielders this year... none in fact. think about since 1986-1998 Maradona, Baggio, Gascoigne, Matthaeus, Gullit, Hagi, Laudrup, Zidane.... none this year, not great performers IMO. |

Putol has legs like tree-trunks, he is very tough. Man of the match v. Korea I thought |

|
|

|

it is so true...there have been nice strikers and nice defenders but very few midfielders...maybe ballack |

Totally agree. |

this is in spanish as I didnt find it in english: Codesal: "Hubo presiones para designar al linier de Trinidad y Tobago" Se destapó el escándalo arbitral del España-Corea. Y se hace desde dentro de las tripas de la propia FIFA. El mexicano Edgardo Codesal, miembro de la Comisión de arbitraje, reveló este lunes el proceso de presiones que desembocó en la designación del trinitario Michael Ragoonath como asistente del partido. Codesal anunció su dimisión como miembro de esa comisión y sigue así el camino iniciado por Angel Villar. El ex colegiado reveló en el diario mexicano ‘Récord’ que Emerson Mathurin, presidente de árbitros de la Concacaf, fue quien propuso a Ragoonath. Codesal reconoce que “presiones existen en todos lados. Mathurin ha tenido problemas con todos. Habría que preguntarle al resto de compañeros cómo observan su trabajo”. Mathurin, de Santa Lucía, y residente en Canadá, es el hombre de confianza de Jack Warner, presidente de la Concacaf y compatriota... de Ragoonath. Warner apoyó a Blatter en las recientes elecciones para la FIFA. Codesal denuncia que “parte de la renovación a la que se debe someter la Concacaf es que se encuentra el trinitario Jack Warner, por eso se debe de cambiar”. La desilusión de Codesal es rotunda en las palabras al diario mexicano: “Hasta aquí llegué; no tengo ninguna intención de seguir en el arbitraje. ¡Aquí se acaba!, pondré mi renuncia irrevocable por todo lo que pasa. No es justo continuar de esta manera”. Codesal describe cómo se marchó Villar: “Lo vi de un modo tranquilo acercarse a Blatter y decirle que su cargo está vacante. Ahora es mi turno”. El tridente Warner-Mathurin-Ragoonath protagonizó un curioso episodio en octubre del 2001. Warner organizó en Trinidad y Tobago un curso de cuatro días para árbitros y asistentes. ¿Quíén fue el director del curso? Mathurin. Más, ¿quién fue uno de los 32 colegiados presentes? Ragoonath. El cuarto y célebre último día de curso se dedicó al estudio de la ley del fuera de juego. La sede del curso fue el centro Joao Ha |

As the more renowned teams have slumped, Tostao ascribes the surprise success of several weaker teams partly to the greater time they had together to train. "The best players were playing until the last minute in club competitions," he explains. Meanwhile, the tournament "is becoming increasingly less important as the European championships take up more space," he reckons. Like others, he also laments a lack of variety in footballing styles. "Football has been globalised. Everyone plays the same way: Argentina, Brazil, the Europeans, the Africans. There is not a great difference between teams, everyone has been brought down to the same level. “The World Cup is very short," he adds. "The teams that have the best performance are not necessarily the best teams. If it had been a longer tournament, France and Argentina could have recovered … You have to be very careful drawing definitive conclusions from these short tournaments.” |

hey tasos where had you been? |

I understand enough this article. Anyway I think that Angel Villar is a great man, he gave a great signal to FIFA with his own resignations. |

brazil - turkey brazil will have to fight very hard to beat the turkish... its not a coincidence that they are in semifinals... ok they were lucky that argentina and france were out...but this is the mirror of what is happening in europe, where they won the uefa cup in 2000 and they got to 1/4 finals of champions league in 2001 (I am talking about galatasaray) their football is based on strenth at their stadiums (where referees allow them more than I would like) but each time they get more and more competitive. the turkish team is made out of galatasaray and good players playing in good european teams, such as "bastur" from leverkusen, hakan sukur (though he is not very good now) dabala (I think he is in milano) this will not be an easy match for brazil |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sukur, Umit, Emre and Ochan plays in Italy. Honestly I wouldn't Turkish players in my Juventus, thet don't convince me. Anyway Turkey is a good team in this world cup. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
turkish players seem to be half as good out of their country... hakan sukur was really good...but he went to italy and ...nothing |

well its football time now!! I wisht I saw a great rivaldo and ronaldo |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yeah i'm gonna go downstairs and watch. GO TURKS!!!!!!!!!!! slaughter those damn brazilians! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nice match .. lots of squandered chances - would have been nice if it was 2:1 --- thought those fighting turks deserved a goal :) perhaps not a win though. GERMANY BRAZIL - huge. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is coming to final . Brazil have depelping parsonal skill on the other hand Germany have difensive style. Both team have different play style. and Europe vs South america. i can't wait |
