After all without him you couldn't even have dreamt about the final lol. | ||

It was just a mistake by Kahn standards..+ Show Spoiler + thats not really true it was pretty bad, but fanboy goggles.. And frankly Hamman was more at fault for dawdling and letting Ronaldo take it from him in the first place.. | ||

The way they have done the new Wembley lay out is that it is in like a mini business park full of resturants and bars, that could be opened up to a fan park as i believe when i was there they had a big open space around the walkway. You could try to just get to the square and find a bar/big screen to watch it. Im sure there will be lots of you Germans there though ![]() | ||

I used to dislike German football too but since 2006 they have become really fun to watch, but unfortunately so many people still remember "old" Germany and still hate them to this day. Not only in football :D But yeah, I agree. For many years Germany was this team that was good at headers, tackles, long distance shots and set-pieces. The players were disciplined and physically strong but the play was never technically inspiring. Somehow we always did quite well at World Championships with it but you could easily see that this would not go on for much longer. 1994 and 1998 we were crushed in the quarter finals by mid-tier opponents who just had a better team in that tournament. 2002 we reached the finals but that was pure luck of the draw. The DFB did many things right 13 years ago. In 2000 it was decided that the DFB and all clubs will pump a lot of money into youth support and infrastructure. Now we reap the rewards with players like Neuer, Khedira, Goetze, Reus, Mueller, Draxler, Gündogan, Özil and many others. Agree with almost everything above except 2002. That team was actually pretty good but no one seemed to realize it before the tournament. I for one thought they would do well. It was a great mixture of experience and young rising talent. A Ballack in his prime was the heart of it all. A lot of the players were simply on top form that year. Remember that many of them were Levekusen players who reached the CL finals that same year. | ||

Is there any chance to get a cheap place to sleep and to watch the game in a nice bar that isnt completly crowed ?( I just want to see the screen ) Ive never been to london before.No. The prices are ridiculous! Go to Dortmund to a Public Viewing place - thats pretty cheap and pretty much a better experience than in a London Pub. | ||
