I still can't figure out if Hamrén is a clown or a genious. That starting XI suggests the former.

...and van Gaal is in. Rumour has it Danny Blind will be assistant coach. Not exactly an uncontroversial choice by KNVB, but interesting for sure. Success or train wreck? Or a little of both?

Congrats to an incredible record: 100 international wins. Yes, Casillas is the first footballer ever to reach that pinnacle. :worthy: Also a record, 509 minutes without conceding a goal in a European championship playoff. Next record challenge in WC 2014: Walter Zenga's 517 minutes (from WC...

News this evening: van Marwijk is out

But is he right or is he wrong? ;)

:rofl1: Cole interviewed after the CL final suckout: "Now no one can say nothing to me". The events of this past evening demonstrate a special characteristic of the Universe. Some people call it Karma. Others call it "thermodynamical dissipation of energy". Whatever it is, it is a wonderful...

ooooooooooooooooooorgasm!!! Thanks ammarfcb, that really hit the spot... :worthy:

At age 23... Life can be hard enough without shit like that. :cry:

I agree with this 100%. That was a huge mistake. You can't play a couple of scared doves in midfield in an opening game against the host nation. From what i understand, Svensson has not said per se that he is retiring. Rather that he "realistically won't be able to compete with younger players"...

:lol: Always necessary in the first aid kit of Swedish supporters: a good sense of humor. But God knows it's hard sometimes. We were granted exactly 8 minutes of happiness in this tournament (52' to 55' vs Ukraine, 59' to 64' vs England) and now it's back to the usual...

Bendtner could face UEFA action

Yeah? But I tell you, I felt exactly like that guy's face in that exact moment. eerie.

That must be one of the most brilliant moments of real-time expressionism ever captured on television. Perfectly reflecting the current mental state of any given Swedish supporter. Where can i get one of those please?

There might well be some properly educated and experienced medical staff that can assist you in your predictions ;) ...but it does seem a little creepy and cyborg-like, I agree.

Medical update: The Drog's WC prognosis is steadily improving. An Ivorian team physician said (post-operation) that the ulna fracture was relatively clean, with no secondary damage to joint/ligaments. The bone has allegedly been fixated with larger-than-usual plate and screws, withstanding...

Recover in time to play football, man. Not violin. In 1-3 weeks time he could play with some sort of protection (which has to be approved, obviously). And that was Börjesson's opinion by the way. He might be a quack, but I doubt it.

It's too early to say. Recovery time for elbow fracture is 1-3 weeks depending on severity. Börjesson, the team physician, has said "50/50" that Drog will be fit in time. They will know post operation.

weeeeeeee, Lahm...:lol:

Yeah to some extent. They run into trouble when loosing posession somewhere in outer space. But there is some sense of balance in the team now, mainly through Zokora, Yaya and Romaric (not in top shape, but still). They look...shorter. And they will score here and there, so that's not the big...

What...the...hell...was I thinking? And this is >90% of the expected starting XI against Paraguay, right?! Marchisio, Criscito, Bonucci and eight corpses (in various stages of decomposition). And Bonucci was a mixed story to put it mildly.
