sooo whos gonna win italy vs. usa

Do you really need an ans for that one? Italy is a football powerhouse. All the Italian players play for top teams, all the US players play for 2nd or 3rd european teams or they play in the US.

Funniest thing I heard was a commentator comparing the US team to the Netherlands saying Donavan would play just as Robben, Mc Bride to Van Nistel Roy and Rayna to Coco... They were seriously saying that the US players were as good as the Dutch... I've heard of optimistic patriotism but come on... they named dutch players are some of the best players in the world...

Come on guy...shit! At least root for the homeland and hope for some upsets. This is the time of season when we all need to be a little optimistic. Also, I think Donovan is a great player. The best? Of course not. But the man is fast as all hell and he knows the game pretty good too:thumbsup:

No offence but what club team does he play for? That tell a lot about a player and how good he is... I hope the US team does well but... I am a realist too.

A player does not make the team. I think(more like hope) that the US has a good shot of coming out of the group, but not much farther that that. It is not about what team they(player) play for in other leagues it is how good the team plays together.
 
doesnt look good for SWE if they cant beat trin tob. :(
watched that with me swedisch friend and learned some swedisch swear words

portugal just won...
they almost had the 2nd quickest goal in World Cup history.
(quickest goal is 11 seconds)

not a bad first game for angola,
i heard the first angolan player to score in the World cup gets a house.

this game was amusing.

...before we start thinking about US and Italy lets keep it on US vs. Czech
 
well only 8 hours til the start of "the game"

i am from the US, and dont think they will win :(
but man if they do!

Rabbit82 WTF is your avatar... i see the potential "VW" but shit

Not to be picky but the guy's name is Van Nistelrooij, not Van Nistel Roy.
