Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Regarding the first game netherland v/s Aussies, I'd an idea Australia will play great with their backs against the wall. And actually they did. Netherland was just a better team among these two as they proved it. The offense of both was amazing.

The first lost against Chile has costed Aussies a lot and they are out after first two games.

Every team informs FIFA of their preferable colors to wear. And then in any particular game, FIFA after considering both team's colors decide which kit they'll put on during that game

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Spain going out probably. Alonso is poor again, why not Koke again? Why Casillas, he has not even played properly for the last two years? Why not Mata or Cesc? God's sake.

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Second Goal.. Chile is playing really awesome... Spain has poor defense

26

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Its just not that, they are setup wrongly. Koke has been magnificent all season and has been left out again. The system with Costa is not working, they played better with Cesc as a false striker. Alonso is past it. They are not used to play with a traditional striker, Villa wasn't that, and its showing.

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

He isn''t useless he is very good, the best in Europe last season, but the system isn't working for him or Spain. Spain played better with a false striker or Villa who knew the Barca system and thrived in the Spanish system as a result. They are not used to playing with a proper striker. But he had to be included as his form was superb (Chelsea have bought him for 30 odd million).

Koke should play, one of Mata, Cazorla or Cesc should play. Atleast.

Never liked new KOKE. Prefer Classic Coca Cola

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Spainful. Very nice!

32

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Lol spain are done. It's a shame cause I thought they would win the world cup again. They have the talent to still score 3 goals but will they? Costa is crap. He's gonna costem the game. Crap crap forward/striker.

Holland to win the WC now :)

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

See, another miss from costa. Might aswell put torres on. At least he misses with style.

34

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

I can imagine him to be Thierry Henry who played wonderfully well for Arsenal but for his national team never contributed to achieve something. Cesc should get a chance to play, Koke is now there in place of Xabi. Lets see what he does.

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Busquets misses a sitter. :smack: Shocking miss.

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Loooool costa doing a scissor kick. You go bruv. Don't hurt yourself will you? Lols.

37

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Costa is one of the best strikers in the world. Unsure where the crap bit comes from. He made superb runs all first half only to get absolutely rubbish balls from Silva and his midfield who insist on playing it very narrow which gives him zero space

38

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

When the fullbacks and the wingers insist on cutting back on every attack and not making ANY runs behind the striker then the striker will play poor as the defence won't get stretched and can mark the striker out of the game.

Silva Pedro etc have to go wider to pull the defenders apart.

Re: Cameron vs Cro, Aus vs Hol, Spn vs Chile

Still no Fabregas.
