GERMANS.........BORING?


For once our normally subdued and robotic germans gave real entertainment, and what a time and place to start, the opening game of the 2006 world cup. It is surly a sign of a very good world cup when even the Germans entertain in the opening game and some great goals by both sides.
I think one of the oldest and most famous sayings surronding world cups over the years has been watch out for the germans they always have a chance , i have heard this all my life and the germans have always proved it true, but this year i thought there managerial team and players are so weak that i wrote them off.
Todays game made me think twice, they are a much more attacking team nowadays and it looks effective, defence looks a bit dodgy and im not saying they will win the world cup but they are better than i thought and this is the world cup so who knows.
The team i really want to see playing is Argentina everyone says Brazil will win this cup but i think there southern neighbours could have a big say in the final outcome
