2010 FIFA World Cup Thread! (Spoilers in Results Area)
- Thread starter Warney
- Start date
Well the Germans did catch a break when England was disallowed a legit goal. I put that mistake entirely on the ref and his linesman though, Germany were not at fault for their blunder.
Spain on the other hand have had two incidents, Fernando Torres being accidentally fouled (barely) by a Chilean defender, the fact that Torres went down as if he had been shot by a snipers bullet didn't help the ref who unfortunately sent off the Chilean.
And then there's Capdevilla feigning an elbow from a Portuguese player which unfairly cost Portugal a red card.
I'm not one to whine about diving and theatrics too much but these two were pretty blatantly disgraceful.
Here's hoping Spain are eliminated later today.

I had to bring this up...
Sneijder will win the Golden Boot i reckon... and United should snap him up soon..
You will be wrong.....mark my words.......
If United sign Sneijder and Owen returns to full fitness United will be invincible.

Barcelona will be invicible! Especially with the inclusions of Villa and maybe Fabregas
Going off topic here-
We also may have the chance to make a move for Benzema.
Van Der Sar
Evra Ferdinand Vidic O'Shea/Rafael
Giggs Carrick Sneijder Valencia
Rooney Benzema

Here is a bit of a list off the United site that Sir Alex is interested in:
Ozil
Mueller
Benzema (didn't do well obviously)
Sneijder
Balotelli
Lahm
Suarez
Neuer (Goalkeeper- Looking at for 2011/2012)

Villa going to Barcelona? Okay - they would be hard to beat........
Ozil - awesome player - Man.Utd should sign him!
Mueller - Meh probably just a good World Cup
Benzema - heard good things about him but France...
Sneijder - currently hate because I want Villa to get Golden Boot
Balotelli - Who????
Lahm - aaah Ozil, Mueller and Lahm?? German invasion!
Suarez - like Ozil awesome player - good for Uruguay
I also think that United should sign Torres because he would have a great partnership for Rooney up front. Berbatov and Owen might have to be sold or given away if this happens...
