denmark? i am toast, really

 

[t1000v2.0]

I know it may look like that...believe me, i was shocked when i pulled France for for Zyg as well...cos he's damn good with the game, lol but what can I say?? jsut the luck of the draw, and anyways, i got nothing to gain or lose by rigging the draw so, i guess thats just how it came out. anyways, a tip for you guys with lesser teams and unknown players...maybe start doing a little research and learning bout your players, remember you are the managers now, find what is your best team, formation and tactics, so what if ya gonna play fran ce, holland or italy...find a way to stifle their attack....you never know, there is always an upset on the cards, that the beauty of the game.

Anyways, lets have some more reaction, pleased about the team you got? or damn well disappointed?? Any one wanan fire out a warning to your opposition? check the table, see who you are up against..and let battle commence!!

[-=[101st]=-]

i am pretty happy with sweden because chances are that in my pool italy will go through in 1st but 2nd place is up for grabs..

hmm.. after having a look at squads and draw.. i am gunning for a quarter final spot...

 

[jthk2004]

i am pretty happy with sweden because chances are that in my pool italy will go through in 1st but 2nd place is up for grabs..

definitely... and i am up against u in the 1st match... but u guys have great chances to go through... i don't have much expectations for my team to be honest...

 

[o0oGedo0o]

we will have a nice match, gedo. u got better players than me obviously...

yeah man, Sweden, Denmark and Bulgaria are all almost equal but Italy man it's like a secure place in the final 8, but who knows ? didn't we see what happened in the Champions league this year, i don't even know my players i better check them out, and i am playing against Italy for the first match ??!! man that's harsh

 

[wr50l]

Italy, I'm pleased with that, the only problem I see is the midfield, not too happy about some of the choices.
But I am pleased with my group. No offence to the others, but I am the top seed in the group, and none of the teams are anywhere near as good as Italy. However, I'm not too pleased about the play-off stages, assuming I reach them. Czech Replucic, Germany, Netherlands could be drawn against me in the quarter-finals.

 

[-=[101st]=-]

well.. i think that bulgaria should[/] be 3 points... and if i can hold Italy to a draw or take 3 points against denmark then i should make the next round.. and then it looks like i will be playing either germany or the dutch... and there are only two things i can't stand in this world, people who are intolerant of other peoples cultures... and the DUTCH... sorry... Austin Powers Quote...

and BTW... just out of a matter of interest.. who was the 2nd seed in out pool??

 

[jthk2004]

i hope i can get 1 point or more in the group stage...

 

[o0oGedo0o]

hey, ive just seen the squads, mine isn't so bad after all , maybe i will try to draw with Italy and play defensively, i guess it's the right thing to do

 

[t1000v2.0]

And so it goes on...bare in mind, nothing is to be taken for granted...as everyone one of those teams could have a bad run..just takes 2 defeats or a couple of draws and any team is in with a shout. Cast your minds back a couple of years, to the world cup of 2002, the Mighy France failed dismally in their group, not winning a single match and scoring just one goal if i remember correctly. So no one is invincible.

 

[jthk2004]

hey, ive just seen the squads, mine isn't so bad after all , maybe i will try to draw with Italy and play defensively, i guess it's the right thing to do

of course not bad... larsson, ljungberg, zlatan, martin laursen, hedman... u name it. the only one in our group that netta play defensively is ME!!!

 

[o0oGedo0o]

France didn't score
