What is he doing now? Is he still in the football business?

 

[U2Man]

Believe it or not, he's the host of the Champions League TV program in Denmark. Best paid TV host of all here.

 

[babyman]

Really? Wow, would have never imagined it, I was almost more than sure that he became something like juniores manager of Broendby, Lyngby, Fc Copenhagen............................
Better to be a TV Star..........

Robben is a disgrace. i hate divers. so theatrical. Remember at the last World Cup when Rivaldo got hit in the knee by the ball and he went down like he'd been shot clutching his face

 

[Sweet Tart]

robben definately played it up but there was no need for reina to shove him in the face. he was the one that clattered gudjohnsen to begin with...what he was thinking i have no idea

He's one of the great Brazilian players of this generation and he went and tarnished his reputation by doing that.

However, he has won the World Cup and i haven't so i don't think he really gives a shit what some guy on a U2 internet forum thinks about him lol

 

[Celticfc]

Of course it is. it happens and the world stands up and takes notice.

Euphoria will break out over here if England really do win it. The Ashes and the Rugby world cup triumphs will be absolutely miniscule compared to if we won the world cup

Keep dreaming. Its not going to happen.

We have every chance of winning it. Our defence in particular is exceptional, especially compared to some other teams *cough*Brazil*cough*....

Great Goal



scored last night apparently...

Every team has a every chance of winning.
Now Im not talking about you but the arrogance of the english press and english fans in general is that they think they have a divine right to win it.
The tabloids are completely over the top when it comes to England in the World Cup.

 

[the rockin edge]

the tabloids are always over the top

No team has a divine right to win the world cup. i can understand the press getting excited about the current England team however because it's our best for years. i mean compare our midfield to the '98 world cup. now it's beckham, lampard, gerrard and joe cole. then it was darren anderton, david batty, paul ince and beckham. it's a massive improvement. although i do agree some tabloids do go over the top sometimes.

 

[roy keane]

Defence is also stronger than in 1998. Not sure about offence

 

[1stepcloser]

Owen and Shearer were wonderful individual players but they couldn't really play together. Owen and Rooney seem to have a better bond. Although i've got a feeling Rooney will be totally marked out of each match

i dunno about that, he wasn't marked out of the games in Euro 2004

but even if he is marked well, all it takes is one defensive error and a few touches and he scores

 

[babyman]

England must absolutely try to make one very important thing: avoid Germany

Real Madrid lost 6-1

^Cassano has ruined himself, he should have remained in Italy, Juventus would be the right team for his talent

 

[Sweet Tart]

Capello was bored of Antonio. But he was the only one able to manage him, so....
