its surprising that dhorashoo makes the squad and players like guily, pires, mexes and malbranque get overlooked. Anelka's a whiny bitch so i can see dommy's reasonining behind excluding him.

Oh and you can change your sig now from champions of europe to 3rd in England

Yeah we lack a decent striker (Pauleta is brilliant when at his best but hasn't shown much for a while), a decent left-back and a goalie that we can trust. Doesn't help that two key players at the Euro (Costinha and Maniche) haven't played much recently.

I still say we're beating our group without major problems then struggling in the knockout stage.

Woah, what a dream team. 2 unattached players (haha, Akwa was actually hyped as the new Eus�bio when he was young at Benfica), 4 players from our 2nd division (Barreirense actually got relegated, and Portimonense was close!), 9 players from the mighty angolan championship.

If these guys didn't have a ton of will to win, and we didn't struggle even against fucking Liechenstein, I'd guess a 6-0. They'll get thrashed for sure by Mexico and Iran anyway.

I also bet there's going to be at least one sending off in Portugal-Angola.

Surprised Baraja & Vicente didn't make it, and the forward line looks a little bit thin (I know garcia can play there but i'd have t aken an extra man myself)

quote:

Originally posted by paranoik0 Who are Chimbonda and Ribery?

Ribery played in the U21's in the side that beat england in a playoff. Quite a bit of hype about him, esp with zizou being gone soon, but I didn't think he was the finished article yet when I saw him. was quite ineffectual against Bolton in UEFA cup too

As michael mentioned, Chimbonda is a right back who is pretty much a caf� type player, although a bit stronger defensively. He's requested a transfer & is being covetted by Spurs & Man Utd amongst others here. Joined from a club who went down in Ligue 1 - i think bastia, but having seen a fair bit of him, he's impressive, if inexperienced at this level

quote:

Originally posted by Ian Sand the forward line looks a little bit thin

Very thin, that's why we need Morientes, and not another defender like Marchena.

3 strikers only in the squad is fine if you're planning to play 4-2-3-1 all tournament. we're doing the same and i think it's more than enough (but have none as good as Morientes!).

Vicente is missing indeed, i find him an excellent player but to be fair that squad as it is, is one of the most solid i've seen so far. Only think 4 defensive midfielders is a bit of an overkill, even if they're all very good (Xavi, Xabi Alonso, Albelda, Senna).

If they manage to keep their head straight and overcome whatever always happens to Spain in the big tournaments they could be one of the biggest opponents to Brazil. Don't overlook Spain.

Originally posted by K.I.K.E. I hope Spanish Jes�s Navas goes to Germany. Electric player.

I believe a midfield of Xavi, Fabregas, Vicente (or the guy from osasuna who looks good) and Navas will be the midfield at the next WC or Euros.... Jes�s was great for Sevilla in the uefa cup final, his acceleration was just blistering, I was like 'wow' as against spanish defences he doesn't always get to show it.

3 Strikers aint enough, same goes for Portugal. Dont get it either, why wouldnt you take Morientes with you as a sub...

I think that Ra�l Albiol has had a better year at valencia than Marchena. Undoubtedly Puyol is the best spanish centre back since Nadal though.
