over mexico and portugal? Nah.... i wasn't too optimistic.

That Mexico game, I had hope in first half... then second half, I liked what iranian media wrote "It was like they had a kabob feast at halftime, they couldnt move"

hahaha yeah, main problem with some asian teams is the stamina, they just cant keep up the level for the whole game, training is just much lighter in asia and we arent really physical like the africans.

oh btw, Asian cup 2011 during January, U.A.E, Iran, Iraq and north korea in 1 group, that going to be a hard group for us, but im sure we are gonna kick your ass

anyways I bet that Japan are going to win it, they look like a real force and with alberto zach. who will make them even more organised.

China might be the only fascist country in the world which is abble to do well on sports and that's just because they really invested on it for the olympics.

Also, the eastern asians have an weird and extreme level of concentration. Even though the white american athletes aren't known for being much effusives, the chineses made them look like enthusiasts.

I really don't see any middle-east country doing anything relevant at well-known sports for long years. Sure, a couple of single athletes may have some achievments in solo sports. But when it comes to a team of eleven players... that's too much for them.

I agree with Senatore. Politcs have a high influence on football.

Anyone tell me why Ukraine's goal was disallowed? I didn't think that was a foul.

Overall impressions were that this Brazilian side look a lot more comfortable on the ball than Dunga's. Lucas did well ... certain he, Ramires and Elias worked better than Gilberto + Mellow IMO. Also, loved the fact that the Romanian commentators mention AC Milan for at least half of the match :proud:

Pato looked sharp. Certainly making the CF role his own internationally. Binho was alright ... worked hard, dropped deep, went left, right, down the center ... I honestly think that if he plays like that for Milan - given a free role - he will be much more valuable than Dinho ...

David Luiz looked alright, but I'll only be pro-signing him IF he cuts his hair ... looks too much like a diving SOB with his current hairdo.

All Whites vs Paraguay 2-0 to Paraguay half time atm could get embarrassing for us

SpartanMilan · Nov 17, 2010

Argentina vs Brazil could have a ton of goals scored, look at the probable lineups-

Brazil-Victor, Daniel Alves, Thiago Silva, David Luiz, Andre Santos; Lucas, Ramires, Elias, Ronaldinho Gaucho; Neymar, Robinho.

Argentina-Romero; Zanetti, Pareja or Demichelis, Burdisso, Heinze; Banega, Mascherano, Pastore; Messi, Higuaín, Di María

Ali Daei · Nov 17, 2010

unfortunately argentinas back four is gonna kill them.

I hope Messi can finally do something in Argentina, Batista is going al out attack and playing Messi on his favored right. Its a very Barca esque formation, maybe even better going forward with the likes of Pastore and Di maria involved.

Brazil look fairly strong but im not convinced about Dinho there, i hope to see Hernanes at some point. Imo he would be better than Dinho and they could play a very nice 4312. Nevertheless should be a highly entertaining game, hoping Argentina nicks it.

argentina wont score, Thiago is starting

So is David Luiz, if Hulk can rape him for pace then Messi, Pastore n co can do the same.

Gazzetta:
Probable formations Italy - Romania:
Italy: Viviano; Santon, Bonucci, Ranocchia, Balzaretti; Aquilani, Ledesma, Mauri; Diamanti; Balotelli, Rossi.
Romania: Taturusanu; Maftei, Tamas, Chivu, Rat; Torje, Ropotan, Florescu, Deac; Stancu, Marica.
Source: http://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Nazionale/17-11-2010/stasera-c-romania-711842888468.shtml

The four debutants (Ranocchia, Diamanti, Balzaretti and Ledesma) are all starting. I'm particlary curious about the attacking trio. Very creative looking and with Diamanti and Balo also the level of crazy-genius goes up a couple of notches

I dont really like that trident, too much creativity not enough finishing, lack of a good poacher CF. I'd prefer to see Pazzini play instead of Rossi, then it would be perfect balance.

dhorasoo · Nov 17, 2010

Rossi is a pretty good finisher IMO. So is Balotelli. It could work, they won't give any reference points to the opposing defence, they can all hold the ball and wait for the incoming midfielders (Mauri and Aquilani).
Should be a fun game to watch.

Rossi is gonna captain :eek:

Not sure thats a good move, imo Aquilani is a great leader, hes on tremedous form as well. Should be a good match though.

Italy's midfield is lightweight, rossi balo upfront? nah.. he should go for balo - Gila

Midfield is alright, Balo Gila would have been better or even Balo Pazzo.

really? without a dm what so ever?

ledesma isnt a pushover but hes no dm, aquilani and mauri are pussies.

Pazzini chokes when he plays for Italy, Gila has a good record for italy, should build on that and prandelli should also make the team work for balotelli.

fertygo · Nov 17, 2010

Dude, Aquilani play in Del neri 4-4-2, at least he's not pushover in defense. I like to see Palombo in there instead Mauri though.

Its just a friendly, Ledesma will do well in the middle of the park and Aquilani/Mauri have been in good form lately. It should work out.

Yes Gila can do the job but as i said its a friendly and the less secure options should be tried out as oppose to the usual suspects.

Should be a good match, i just hope that Romania doesnt sit back and only counter.

acmilan4ever · Nov 17, 2010

David Luiz just owned Messi.

acmilan4ever · Nov 17, 2010

Brazil hit the bar, nice play between Dani Alves and David Luiz from a short corner and Alves hits the bar!
