[MulletProof]

[stersita]

so i see i'm not the only one who has a little enemy

^ WWoooooooooo!!!! Sounds like home!!!!

Nice to see another Arsenal supporter in this thread!! Great avatar!

 

[pazzaperleborse]

^ they're going to ROCK the house at the championships!!!!

 

[Bluestar07]

yep just checked it, you're group D. i think portugal is kind of good, not sure about mexico or the other two.

and bluestar i like argentina

So I am not alone! YAY!!!!

p/s: I wanted to edit this post to change my font colours to the Argentina flag colours .. then I realised the white letterings would not show and my post wouldn't make sense. It's still early on a Saturday morning for me and I've not had my first cup of cafe yet.

Argentina plays Cote d'Ivoire, Serbia & Montenegro and Netherlands in Group C.

Italia plays Ghana, USA and Czech Republic in Group E (Mullet, I definitely don't think the US will be beating Italia *crosses fingers and toes*)

^Argentina is in the group of death just like last time

 

[Senna]

^ Can't wait for the Holland vs. Argentina game.. hope it will be as exciting as in the 1998 quarter final when Dennis Bergkamp heart scored the winning goal a minute from time.

 

[amphrosyne]

Yes I still remember that game so clearly. Do you remeber the commentator? He was lost for words and just kept screaming Bergies name!! I love your avatar btw

 

[Senna]

Thanks!!

I watched the game in Holland so I guess there was a different commentator for me.. which is a shame because I love it when commentators start screaming.

I remember watching the game at a birthday party and everyone went crazy after Bergkamp scored.. that was a great day.

 

[amphrosyne]

I watched it in Holland too I lived in Amstelveen for a while.

Heres a link to that part of the commentary

That is soooo funny!!!! Now I remember it too, how could I forget?? Thanks for posting, karma!

 

[amphrosyne]

Haha my pleasure! It was one of my best footballing memories! Thanks for karma

 

[MulletProof]

i'm excited about argentina vs. holland!


wonder if cote d'ivore is a team to be scared of?, i remember senegal being quite surprising in...98, 2002?.

 

[stersita]

wonder if cote d'ivore is a team to be scared of?

is this the first time they classify for the WC?

 

[Senna]

Haha my pleasure! It was one of my best footballing memories! Thanks for karma

You're welcome!

I somehow don't think Cote d'Ivore should be underestimated.. they have some good players such as Didier Drogba, Bonaventure Kalou and his younger brother Salomon (who tried to get a Dutch passport so he could play for Holland but his request was refused by the government.. ). We'll have to wait and see!

I looked it up and it is their first time indeed, stersita!

 

[amphrosyne]

^yeah cote d'ivore has some pretty good players like our very own kolo toure, manu eboue. They also have Drogba , Yaya Toure, etc

 

[Senna]

^ Can't believe I just forgot to mention them!!
That must be the most stupid thing I've done today.. (especially because I DID mention Drogba)

 

[amphrosyne]

^ we all make mistakes

thanks for karma stersie. Bergies the best

 

[Bluestar07]

Ooh! So much update here. Yes, yes cursed with the Group of Death luck yet again. How could I forget Bergkamp breaking the hearts of Argentina's fans? I took so long to "forgive" him and only because he plays for Arsenal. Now, as for Svensson ... he will never be forgiven for making Bati cry.
