e - Well ok not a dive as such, but to claim a penalty after accidentally tripping over yourself to save face is quite ridiculous.

Our coach is so stubborn lol.
Putting RVP the EPL's player of the year on a position different than at his team's position...
Then putting VDV as a left winger lol >.<

Our coach has been putting our star players in positions they don't perform best at and doesn't want to change the formation to the player's instead he's forcing the players change to his formation.

Oh well losing 1-2 to Bulgaria isn't that bad. I'm waiting till the Euro Cup to see worse things happen.


He's just trying stuff out I guess no need to worry yet. When we lose from dk them you have to start worrying :D

From what I can tell all teams have some issues that need to get solved and I seriously doubt we can beat Holland. Our keeper (Thomas Sørensen) is shit atm and our defenders are always injured.

Rofl, that dive by the Spaniard. Referee must have been tripping balls.

Spain squad looks good. That midfield is scary. Will be interesting to see who they go for to start at the top. I'm guessing Llorente, with Cazorla and Pedro as suppliers.

With the quality of this video there is no way you can see if he makes contact with his leg.

Spain is so stacked it's ridiculous.

I think the best team would be;

-----------Casillas---------------
Arbeloa-Pique-Ramos-Alba
------Fabregas-Alonso-------
---------------Xavi-----------------
Iniesta----Llorente-----Mata

LW is a toss-up between Silva/Mata.
Rotate Xavi/Iniesta, play Pedro/Carzola/Navas at RW.
Obviously rotate the DM line with Busquests/Martinez.

I don't like Iniesta as a winger. I'd rather see Fab get benched, move Iniesta to the mid and get a speedier player on the side, like Pedro or Cazorla.

I think that France's constant insistence on building teams around a classic number 10 is really hindering them. Gourcuff makes the French team every time because of the possibility he might fulfill his promise as 'the next Zidane', but I don't think that is going to happen now. On sheer form alone, Gourcuff did not deserve to join this French squad.

Giroud looked promising though and Ribery looked very effective once again. Ben Arfa and Benzema seemed to be linking decently as well.

Benfica bought Ola John, a 20 year old, for 8 million euros. Can any Dutch fan comment on this player? Is he worth the cash?

Yeah that'd fit him much better. I'd rather say make it Alonso behind Xavi and Iniesta in the midfield and put Pedro as the right winger. Plus you can substitute Cesc if you need more vertical prowess. Also, Torres ofc.

You're about to get flamed for even suggesting Torres.
