The 2014 FIFA World Cup
-
France intrigue me. On paper they have an excellent side but the capacity to completely melt down is always there. If they ever get it together they could be a force again.

Definitely a lot of crazy there. I can't stand nasri, but it's madness that they didnt include him in the squad.
So many teams have the right players to do well, but since they only play together a handful of times a year they don't really have any understanding of each others movements and thus ability to play well together as a team (bar a few notable exceptions including Spain and Germany) It makes for bad, but sometimes entertaining football, as it is definitely a strikers tournament.

Being a Newcastle fan I have an interest in how Yohan Cabaye performs as he was great for us. I didn't really begrudge him his big move to PSG, but I thought he should have moved to Spain or Germany instead for a higher standard of football, he was so good for us and I wonder how good he could have been for a really top side….now he'll be stuck in a league with not much real competition, but playing for a massive club nevertheless.

it is too bad, i would have really liked to see him come to arsenal , but can understand why padrew blocked it. its been great to see newcastle back in the mix (despite the blip two seasons ago) they are the only team ive ever really been bothered to see relegated.

…but unfortunately they play mainly on grass.

Great stuff.

Well, after rioting, that horrible opening ceremony and being 1 - 0 down after 11 minutes it really could not have started much worse for Brazil.
-
Woah, didn't see that coming. 11' in? I kind of feel bad for the host country. Not that I think they are in any real jeopardy of not advancing.
-
Not with remarkable luck of Neymar to still be on the pitch. He's done a Koeman (for the England fans with long memories).
-
That penalty was absolutely pathetic in the Brazil-Croatia match. Also, Croatia's goalie sucks.
-
They should have had that chick with the nips hanging out for Brazil. Too bad Paraguay didn't make it this year, that Paraguayan chick was amazing… http://www.fiveaa.com.au/gallery_paraguay-s-hottest-soccer-fan-larissa-riquelme_97958
