Well I wish you all the best...

But I still hope we'll win!

I think our most important test will be after that: France!

For once i will actually agree with Cat here, Man Utd fans are nothing but glory hunters...they suck.



As I'm only couple of minutes online I didn't read other pages of this thread...

Calling me glory hunter and telling me that I suck I found offensive. I'm not some new fan who started worshiping club becouse of their new succeses, I'm already 10+ years fan of the club so can you make your posts a little bit less offensive...

Also I'm a fan of Newcastle and Chelsea too, as well as any English club when playing in Europe but in England my heart belongs to Man Utd...

First of all, Belgium is a really overestimated team. I dont think they make 2.nd round, they lack in offensive qualties. Belgium usually has a good defensive but thats about it, and i dont think they will reach 2.nd because of that.

Im sorry if u find my posts offensive Nebuka but thats a part of the package i am, i usually say what i think and thats what i am thinking. And you know what the really "fun" part about it is? That absolutely no one can admit that they like Man Utd because its a winning team, everyone keeps making silly excuses about why they do it. If u support a team the least you can do is be honest why you do it. In most cases we all know why anyway.

Belgium is one of the most boring national teams there is to watch, defence is what matters. Nothing personal against you or any other belgian dude, but the Belgium football is really really boring.

Belgiums Offence

Ever heard of Emile and Mbo Mpenza?? They are the main source of Belgiums attack!!! I think U,Stiven, are underestimating the Belgians.

As for Argentina, sure they could challange the French but so can many other national squads!! Argentina is very good, but they are not the only , major challengers...

I'm sorry Sir_Stiven,...

But I have to disagree with you...

But like the brothers Mpenza, we have loads of offensive talent...
Since Waseige is our bondscoach we haven't lost over 85% over our games!!! (and that weren't all small countries!)

U could have Nistelrooj&Henry&Shearer as forwards in a team and you could still have a defensive kind of play. Namnes of players says nothing about how a team plays, its still the tactics you use thats its all about.

No no no, im saying that just because u have certain players it doesnt make your game offensive. Norway has Flo&Solskjär...are they known for being offensive?

And Sweden will win World Cup btw, we will suprise u all

in 96 i think it was ended up with 4-2 DAMN! that was a good game for norway too bad we dident make it longer then italy. rekdal did a great job on that penalty shot i really enjoyed that game



errrr... I think you don't have the slightest clue what you're talking about. The game we beat Brazil 4-2 had nothing to do with the world cup, nor was it in 96' (whence, by the way, there was no world cup), nor did Rekdal score a penalty goal that game. How wrong can you get???

The 4-2 victory was a friendly match at Ullevål stadium in 97'. The goals were scored by Rudi, T.A. Flo (2x) and Østenstad.

In 98' we beat Brazil 2-1 in our final group match. We came back from a 0-1 deficit within the last quarter of the game. First Flo toyed with the Brazilian defence before making the scores even. Then he was held within the penalty area (no doubt after watching numerous replays), and our greatest captain ever, Rekdal, put the pen. There have never been such displays of public affection from the norwegian people as there was that night. Several hundreds of thousands of people crowded the streets of our capital, Oslo, all through the night.

Then Italy sent us home with a 1-0 loss. They have a nasty habit of doing that to us in world cups...

BTW: Liverpool and Juventus rules, Owen does not dive, Del Piero does sometimes, but that's okay since he's just so damn good...

I'm quite astonished with the way you can reach my mind and tell what I like and why I like it. Winning, of course, is great when supporting a team but definately not all. If so now I would be proud fan of Arsenal or Liverpool. Don't have any shares in Man Utd so I'm not too worried about their winning record...
My honest reason why I support them is simple, I like them...like the players, way they play, ability to not change a manager every now and then, tradition and atmosphere ( for that I love every English club )...
You and Cat called us "glory hunters"...Just what glory can I catch?

Roland, u dont get this do u. We could keep this going forever... Players&Results&Titles&Referees&whatever has nothing to do with what i am saying. I am saying that belgium plays boring football thats it.

Nebuka, so now you cant be a fan of a team if u dont have shares in it? This is another thing i hate, money rules football way to much nowadays and its ppl like you that makes it like that if thats how u see this.

Wow thats a new one! i really havent heard that one before! "No i dont like Man utd because they keep winning, i like them because if u add 5cm to my length i am just as tall as David Beckham! or if i was born at another date and another year i would have been born the same day as Ryan Giggs!". Its crap excuses and you know it and dont bring that Arsenal&Liverpool excuse up because it would be too transparent even for you guys if u changed team all after who topped the league and you know just as good as i know that Man Utd have every chance on the league this year and Champions League too for that matter so dont give me that "Arsenal&Liverpool is topping the league now" crap.

Accept it, if u wanted to pick a team for "manager length" i think u should have picked Crewe because i think that its their manager who has been at his post for a really long time now..i could be wrong about this so i think ill check it up but i guess you get my idea anyway. just admit it and stop all those silly excuses.

*How about argentina? My hot tip for this years world cup.. I think they are the only team to challenge defending champions France.*


Argentina stands a good chance in winning this W-cup as they seem real strong this time (well they are strong all the time anyway).  But, to win the cup is another thing.  Argentina really wasn't in much luck during the draw, which ended them in GP. F with the 3 you-know-what teams.  Even if they make it through (I think they will), they still have to beat Brazil and France before getting to the final.  That's quite a long way.  Of course, apparently (according to results so far), Brazil and England do not appear to be too great a threat this time.  

You are probably right in saying that Argentina can challenge France, but Portugal or maybe even Irish Republic looks tough too.  Moreover, Portugal was damn lucky to end up in a relatively weaker group and (in a sense) they only have Italy, Spain and Germany to worry about, which we all know that Portugal would stand a chance with.  


To Thunderknight:

If I'm not wrong, this is the first time that the Chinese team made it through the qualifying rounds, right?  Too bad they have to play with Brazil.  Do you think they can beat Turkey and Costa Rica?

To all:

Tell me which team do you think would win the cup?  Errh, based on facts, not patriotism.

I think France, but I hope Portugal would.

OK, Stiven I'll stop "silly excuses" but one correction please...I never said that you can't be a fan if you don't have shares in club. Most people who have them would be worried about winning of their club...
