you think Team Melli plays bad??? please watch South Africa v Iraq... this is high school football.

most boring game i've watched in 2009 so far!!!

no one has had a decent shot. iraq have had no shots except Nashat hitting the wall and South Africa miss kicking all their shots so far.

correct me if I'm wrong but Iraq seems they got no plan in the way they're playing, they're just all over the place, while South Africa play nice one-twos trying to get in crosses which hasn't been successful either.

damn, why does that sound familiar??? what team do i know that has no plan and is just all over the place??

haha on espn, tommy smyth made a point about being boooooooth. lol
but damn, this game is boring!!!

It really is. And they are surely both not playing better football than Iran. I don't know what we expect from our boys.

^ lol, really? I already thought about interesting theories, including rivalry of his club with the local club or racism, because he's the only white player .

italy needs giovinco

[abtin_32]

yea Foggia is the shit! If Lippi wants to win he'll play Iaquinta instead...same height and he's a much better finisher now than Toni....Toni is good at attracting defenders but most of the balls that go to him get wasted....
Rossi-Iaquinta up top is a killer combo

Foggia is okay, but doesn't deserve a starting spot at the moment with so many good in-form italian players. Rossi definitely does though, although from what the latest news I have heard from the camps, the first team is mostly comprised of Zambrotta-Cannavaro-Chiellini-Grosso, Gattuso-Pirlo-De Rossi, Camoranesi-Gila_Iaquinta.

I would definitely start Rossi if I were Lippi.

And PersianGodFather, wait till next year after D'agostino has shined at JUVE. We'll be hearing a lot more about him...
