World Cup 2006... And what I think about it

Sweden - We're dangerous next summer, make no mistake. If we can find a good compliment to Zlatan if Larsson isn't fit enough and if a good lock in the defence together with Mellberg comes forward we can go far.
All the pieces aren't there, but the most crucial ones are our strongpoint. Don't be surprised if it's '94 revisited.

Are you Swedish? If so, what do you think of Markus Rosenberg, who is going to play for my favourite club Ajax next year?

Tough call, last year when he was (more or less) the only option in Halmstad he flourished and score da bundle of goals. This year with better backing but more attention to him he hasen't really proven himself. That coupled with lackluster play in the national team has me thinking that it might be one of the worst buys Ajax has made in a while.

It's a bust/boom situation; either he rises to the occation and scores a lot of goals, or he'll just fade and be an adequate sub.

He's a do-it-all player with a knack of running the lanes perectly, but he can at times be thinking to much of what he's going to do next so his performance gets "slow".

wow brazil with a strong win over argentina


adriano's first goal

Oh. My. God.

Argentina really got their asses handed to them. How a team can be so ineffective in the last 30% of the field is surprising, aspecially considering the players they have up front.

Oh well, Brazil shows that they need Adriano more than ever, and Cicinho shows that Cafu should really watch out.

Good game.

It's just me or Argentina always lose when it matters?

They did beat Brazil in the WC Qualifiers when it mattered with a good game.

Brazil almost tied the game Adriano had a shot that hitted the left...(mmm, how do you say "palo" in english? )

But Argentina played well and won it.

Yeah, I saw the game, it was cool. But what I meant in my first post is that Argentina wins against everybody here in the Concacaf for the WC qualifiers, but in the tournaments (Copa America, World Cup, etc) they play not-so-good.
