i guess, but i was just saying those are the biggest rivals to england:wink:

i was born in england so i'm british but my mother is american so i'm a dual citizen:wink:
 
Or Iceland?

Denmark definitely got the short straw when it came to the music though.

Iceland: Bjork, Sigur Ros.
Norway: Sondre Lerche, Royksopp
Sweden: The Cardigans, Jens Lekman, Jose Gonzalez, the Hives, the International Noise Conspiracy
Finland: Nightwish, the Rasmus (ok, maybe not)

Denmark: Aqua.

What the hell? Ok, one Mew might equal one Sondre Lerche but Norway still has Royksopp.
 
Sweden also has ABBA and Europe. It is left as an exercise for the reader to determine how this affects their ranking.

Will not happen again.

Quote me on it.

Go Argentina!!!

That goal by Bergkamp is indeed one of a kind. And no 'hand of God' was needed for it. :wink:

Still, I think we'll see more of these:

You will have to admit I'm right.

No hand of God was needed to kick your team's orange butt in 1978...

We will see in a few months :evil:

No, only some intimidation and the knowledge that the team would not get out of the stadium alive should they win from Argentina.

Fighting talk!

Yes, I'm now inspired to sledge any lurking Aussies, Brazilians and Croats.

Aussies: Harry Kewell has stupid hair.

Brazilians: Ronaldinho has stupid teeth.

Croatians: Uh, Igor Biscan really sucks?

Edit: Hey, Martijn, how is Shinji Ono playing for your lot this season?

Actually I looked up his stats and I've found out he's injured. :(

I'm really excited about seeing Dirk Kuyt next year though (hopefully).

And it seems he's going back to Japan in January. There are talks of a transfer to Urawa Red Diamonds (which is also his former employer)

I'm really excited about seeing Dirk Kuyt next year though (hopefully).

And Yeah, he's pretty good. With a bit of luck, Salomon Kalou will also be naturalised as a Dutchie and those two together are an amazing duo. (Plus it could happen that in the match against the Ivory Coast he'll playing against his brother Bonaventure Kalou).
 
I like our midfield of Nakamura-Nakata-Ono-Inamoto a lot. Nakamura's apparently on his way to being a Celtic legend. :happy:

Alex Santos is probably going to enjoy the Brazil match too. :)

I didn't know that about Kalou, interesting. I think Ruud van Nistelrooy is the nailed-on certainty as a striker so if van Basten's going for two up front it'll be quite interesting to see who he picks of Makaay, Kuyt or Kalou (if he can make it by then). Either way really looking forward to seeing the Dutch, and hoping to see a bit of Kuyt especially considering all I've read/heard about him.
