2014 FIFA World Cup thread, v1

volland is a beast,hoffenheim was the most fun to watch team this season
kruse is a moving forward which is needed in a 4-2-3-1

Volland is good and has a lot of potential.
Kruse hasn't been the same player he was in the 1st half of the season, was on a serious goal drought. I'm not sure what his chances are of making the squad.

klose could overtake ronaldo for all time goals

Fuck Klose

 

[thebluerider]

i'm so rooting for it to happen now

I wouldn't be surprised if Altidore has been saving a can of whoop-ass to open it on Ghana or Portugal.

That would be a colossal mindfuck.

Jozy couldn't trap a bag of cement. Has two left feet and kicks with his right. Did you see that sitter he missed today?

smh

inb4 forlan has another beast world cup

 

[GracieMMABarra]

Germany, if you can't do it this year, just give up.

Squad is ridiculous.

 

[edgekiller65]

inb4 forlan has another beast world cup

Don't count on it, he's in Japan, where the competition is easier.

 

[maksy]

Why you think USA can beat Portugal?

Portugal team is very weak... C.Ronaldo is not god

 

[flaninthefacerh]

the thing that I have overlooked is that this is my first world cup that will actually be in the same time zone (first was 2002).

So it's going to be pretty cool to be able to go out to the bars and watch a 6pm and 9pm game.

Most of Brasil is an hour ahead from the east coast. Especially the big cities.

Don't forget.

ah alright, well either way i was looking at the TV schedules, and first two USA games are gonna be at 6pm, so im pretty stoked

.......and the Olympics in 2 years.

Crazy. Qatar is the jewel in the crown though.

Must have been some good bribing going on there.

Must have? Ppl that voted have already started to receive the transactions. The ppl from the committee that will "investigate" the whole thing in a few yrs have probably been bribed already too.

 

[Possum Jenkins]

inb4 forlan has another beast world cup

No way. His performance has taken a nosedive after 2010. He's old.

I could really see Suarez be this Cup's Forlan. He's peaking at the very best time. Only thing is Uruguay is considerably weaker this time around.

Yes that's what must have means........

Fuck Klose

Germany's provisional squad being announced :

Goalkeepers: Neuer, Weidenfeller, Zieler

Defenders: Boateng, Durm, Gro

 

[Rawex]

Portugal team is very weak... C.Ronaldo is not god

Yet this weak team went to penalties against Spain in last euros. Better performance than any team had against them since 2008 (The swiss beat Spain yes but that was in group stage game and Swiss didnt even make it out of the groupstage + yes Brazil beat them in Confed). Also last Euros Germany BARELY beat Portugal.

Portugal is a good team and can go far in this tournament.

 

[redmist25]

my preferred squad

goal:
neuer (Bayern)
weidenfeller (Dortmund)
zieler (Hannover)

defense
lahm (Bayern)
boateng (Bayern)
mertesacker (Arsenal)
hummels (Dortmund)
durm (Dortmund)
ginter (Freiburg)
gro

 

[KOQ24]

You wouldn't take Draxler?

nope.
had an underwhelming season.
at his position id take reus and sch
