I hear Mertesacker is on his top priority list, that would be amazing.

you want the whole damn German team dont ya! I agree though Khedira is a HUGE help with how he has been playing. At first it sucked that Ballack was hurt because any true Germany fan would be disappointed in that...but I also realized that this would be a huge opportunity for younger players to step up to the plate and show they deserve to be there. And oh boy did Ozil, Khedira, and Muller prove they are the future!!!

Most of that team out there was under 25 years old, I think we're about to see a decade of German dominance in europe, hell, the world. Crazy.

I think Xavi is better about picking out *that* pass, but Schweinsteiger might be more dangerous on the ball as he's not afraid to shoot.

I love watching Barca & Spain, but at times, Xavi is too unselfish.

Get ready to see a HUGE jump for Paraguay in the FIFA rankings also. From 31 to the teens I bet.

Still, Maradona didn't accept any blame for the crushing defeat, and lashed out at a reporter who questioned whether his critics in Argentina might be satisfied with the loss.

"Are you joking," he said. "This is a country where you live and breathe football. I don't think that anyone will be happy when the team loses 4-0."

Jesus christ I feel raped. Haven't been able to sit down. Damn germans.

Bah. Bring on the tour de france.

I'd like xavi more if he shut his damn mouth over transfer rumors more. Can't deny his talents though.

Fabregas made out of glass? What'd I miss??

cow · 07-03-2010, 08:54 PM

I suppose he was talking about his being injured most of the season?

I think I just found the reason behind the success of the Mannschaft

The German team is all foreign?

Foreign born or of foreign descent. FIFA's laws regarding which nation one represents are fairly lenient.

This post is from 2001-- I think they've been relaxed even more since then:

FIFA's eligibility rules need clairfication.
