well robben to his credit stayed on his feet the one time i begged him to go down...

and really, robben had GREAT chances. RIDICULOUS, i might say, but he failed on them. he'll have nightmares for sure.

van persie was non-existent today. can't spearhead an attack with a blunt weapon, now can we?

Red370 · 07-11-2010, 04:31 PM

I dont think RvP operates well as a lone striker, he is used best on the right in a 4-3-3 formation where he can utilize his ability to cut and use his left foot.

Red370 · 07-11-2010, 04:32 PM

and on that BS non call on Puyol, I wasted a perfectly good beer by throwing it against a tree, and I dont waste beer, I was pretty effin pissed.

G37Sam · 07-11-2010, 05:14 PM

I thought the game was on fire! Even though no goals

Iniesta and Xavi are a deadly combo!!

Congrats to Spain!

Jabulani + Vuvuzelas + horrible Refs + host nation failure + boring/unepic final = mediocre World Cup

Red370 · 07-12-2010, 07:37 AM

I agree somewhat, for some reason this world cup didnt seem as competitive as years past, I kinda felt a bit disconnected.

G37Sam · 07-12-2010, 11:49 AM

I'm looking for a Forlan shirt actually lol

Red370 · 07-12-2010, 12:18 PM

I'm a bit bored but I'm curious who everyone would put together for their All World Cup XI, who are some players that surprised you and who disappointed?

Casillas
Maicon-Pique-Friedrich-D.Alves

Mueller-Xavi-Ozil-Schweiny

Villa-Forlan

Casillas

Villa-Forlan

damning to all hell typical soccer formations:

Stekelenburg

Lahm - Kjaer - Puyol - D. Alves

Schweinsteiger

Honda - Sneijder

Xavi

Villa - Forlan

Yes, I just put Schweiny in a defensive midfielder position like a dumbass. and yes, 4-1-2-1-2 is a ridiculous formation. but those are the players that really struck me as having really good tournaments, and that was really the best way i could fit them all in.

and yes, japan didn't go very far, but keisuke honda has been nothing short of brilliant this entire tournament...although he did act as a striker instead of a midfielder.

if fabregas was a starter he'd be in there for sure though

I know its a little late, but I thought these posters around NYC were pretty awesome. Put them all together alphabetically and made them my desktop background.

Do you have the posters in high res?
