Semi Finals

Well where are they now pet?

Oh yes...they packed up and went home.

Oh dear!

I'm sure Ehsan can knit you one, just ask nicely!

Milly dahling, I will just rephrase your post here if I may?

Argentina provided the entertainment, the Europeans provided the football! ;)

Brazilians provided Dung! lol.

Re: Semi Finals

psychic paul does it again, i just lost a 100. :(

anyway as for Germany where were they tonite, players like Ozil, Podolski didn't turn up.

Spain worked hard and rightly make the WC final.

Sabs, after your use of the word 'dahling' (hehehe), you can paraphrase whatever you want pet!

Re: Semi Finals

Now the big Q:

Can the Dutch break Spanish hearts on Sunday?

Re: Semi Finals

^ Its up to their flair players Robben and Sniejder...Van persie has had a torrid tournament but if he fires alongwith those two, we are in for a cracker!

Re: Semi Finals

its a close call, both teams are similar in style, the dutch triangle of robben, persie and sneijder are doing the business, gonna wait on Paul. (unless he gets eaten before then).

LoL! I can take offence to the word you used at the end but in spirit of pure spanish delight, Ill just let go! ;) :D

Re: Semi Finals

How gracious of you dahling!

eeeeee

Im never going to let that go now Sabs. In all my GS life, I would have never have expected you to use that word.

I guess the Europeans seem to have that effect on you! :p

IMO, Netherlands rely more on their wide players more while Spanish machine works through the midfield trio of Alonso, Xavi and Iniesta. .. so style is a bit different.

Paul is a master, but he doesnt predict matches other than Germany's does he?

Re: Semi Finals

I agree with Asif, its gonna be a boring final.

Re: Semi Finals

Haha, a great quote from a Spanish Pundit (courtesy BBC)

"Three years ago we decided to keep the ball and since then nobody has taken it off us. We cannot compete physically with the rest so we keep the ball!"

Loved it! :D

Nah, its the Argentinian and Spanish Flair combined producing this effect! :p

Now I should better shut up before Ehsan bhai kicks me off GS for life for flooding! :D

in terms of possession football, is what i meant.

We’ll have to wait and see, apparently news hitting the net is that, he’s receiving death threats. :eek:

He being Paul?

I googled him for my class today as we dicussed tonights match predictions, and one of them read ’ people want to eat Paul’ They were horrified that an octopus could be eaten!

Re: Semi Finals

^ oh wow, Zermans are going crazy I sink!

btw, I must applaud Germany for a fantastic tournament they had! Gone are the days when Germans would defend for their lives for a 1-0 victory. This team counter attacks and does so with flair... plus they are young and skillful! Awesome. Hoping they would stuff Uruguay proper!!!

Re: Semi Finals

Re: Semi Finals

yeah sabs, much of this team will be around in 2 yrs aswell as in Brazil 2014, this tournament has given them much needed experience and they'll be stronger for it in the future.

Yes as in Susi ingredients :D.

and I think now those who never want to east such thing will eat him due to anger :D
