Damo R. 29,658 Posted June 9, 2008 I love watching this german squad. Podolski and Klose are damn fast. Yeah I have always thought Podolski was talented and I hope he comes to the EPL one day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martyn 5 Posted June 9, 2008 Podolski has been absolute crap for Bayern though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
instant.human 45 Posted June 9, 2008 thats right. but lehmann wasnt that good either the last few weeks. he wasnt the first 20 minutes but he really grew on the game. the german team really doesnt have the good players, i suppose. at least not if you look at them seperately. look at podolski. he sucks in bayern but he is one if not the best player in the DFB-team... or klose. or schweinsteiger. or metzelder... but as a team, they just work very well. =) i think we really might have some good chances this year. funny thing, i dont know if youve seen that: podolski almost forgot his trophy for the best player of the game after the press conference. gotta love his team spirit. he didnt care at all. "we were quite good". =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fudzk 0 Posted June 9, 2008 Podolski needs to come to Chelsea :) no way in hell! :D Podolski has been absolute crap for Bayern though. yeah thats right he almost neve played ... its really a phenomenon the difference between its playing for germany and for bayern is like huuuuuuuuuuuuuge i think we really might have some good chances this year. we'll surely win this thing!!!! where's your patriotism :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ynnoj 23 Posted June 9, 2008 So, predictions for today's games? France 3-1 Romania Italy 2-0 Netherlands Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
instant.human 45 Posted June 9, 2008 france 2-2 romania italy 2-1 netherlands my guess. dont underestimate romania this year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ynnoj 23 Posted June 9, 2008 france 2-2 romaniaitaly 2-1 netherlands my guess. dont underestimate romania this year! As much as I'd love to see Romania perform in the 'group of death', I can't see them salvaging much to be honest. They might grind a draw out against the Dutch, but it won't be enough. France and Italy will top the group easily - I think Holland are overrated. I'd love for them to prove me wrong though :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
instant.human 45 Posted June 9, 2008 the good thing is: we will definately see at 18:00 cet and 20:45 cet. =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L3thal 2 Posted June 9, 2008 If Italy scores first, they will win; if the Netherlands gets the first goal, it will be a Dutch victory or a tie. Italy is the type of team to grind it out after scoring first but when they are down, they have to leave their comfort style of grinding it out and that is when the Dutch can take advantage. I cannot say much about the other game. I have not seen Romania play at all this year so I do not know how they are as a team. I am hoping for a Romanian and Dutch win :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
External HDD 13 Posted June 9, 2008 France 1 - Romania 1 (or 0-0) Italy 0 - Holland 1 (or 0-0) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HilariousNinja 6 Posted June 9, 2008 I'm really hoping the big game tonight lights up the tournament. Germany's and Portugal's games had some good moments but other than that it has been pretty dreary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L3thal 2 Posted June 9, 2008 I concur. It might be because its the start of the tournament and all these teams are just getting in sync. Once everyone gets their 1st game in, it should lead to rather interesting games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shibby 1 Posted June 9, 2008 I only watched the last 15 minutes, I was sleeping. Thank god really, from the sound of everyone, it was a terriable match, for the French that is. A great one for Romania who just stole a point, makes the people back home happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
