Nah he predicted Serbia when Germany lost to them ;)


Hmm, he chose Serbia when it appeared the ref had it in for Germany, kicking Klose out of the game. Omg, the octopus bribed a ref. Paul must be stopped!

German football is incredibly dull to watch. They're efficient, but their approach to football is clinical and lifeless. It's like watching paint dry. If it's them and the Netherlands in the final, it'll put me to sleep.

Don't worry, he just jinxed his jinx. He supports them, but says they will fail. Means his jinx is null and void. [-(

I completely disagree with you Mordack on this one. I'm sorry but you cannot beat Argentina 4:0 by being lifeless. They work together beautifully as a team. Some of their breakthrough techniques are brilliant. Ozil being a big part of it. The single actions are executed well. Take Schweinsteiger in the Argentina game for example.

Quote from the FIFA site:

"Low's 2010 FIFA World Cup™ side are the sexiest thing to come out of Germany since Claudia Schiffer became the supermodel face of Chanel."

Another quote from the FIFA site:

"In the meantime, let us lie back and think of Germany, a football team whose artistry has brought wonder and joy to South Africa 2010."

touche.

I found those two quarter finals more entertaining than a great amount of other matches so far...
What the heck is "awesome" football for you? :?

I just hope Robben will not simulate like he did against Brazil (where he jumped to the ground)...that wasn't nice.

It's difficult for me to define what I consider 'awesome' because it's an intrinsic and unmeasurable quality. The German play was technically flawless, I'll agree, but I dunno. I just couldn't get that into the match.

I have to agree with Mordack on Germany. They play well and execute, but it's kind of like watching a robot army. There is by far less emotion on their faces than I have seen on teams in the other matches. It is as if they are entirely focused on their technique and execution and not on enjoying the sport. I'm not put to sleep by their play, but I do find it a lot more difficult to get excited when I watch them play. I'm not entirely sure what causes it...but it's something to do with Germany...
