**juiceboxxx** · 06-07-2006, 12:11 AM

Hey guys well I wanted to do this for alooong time.....let this be the 2006 official world cup thread of ours.

Any goal scoring, injury, team routing etc... you got to do then come and do it in here....

tell us who you think will win it? how your team is doing and they will do every game?

I dont care if your team is U.S.A, England, Brazil or Italy etc........

keep us updated on updates during the game, scores, injury, how the group stages are doing, who you think will advance to the playoff stage, hating, bashing and cheering !!!

Have fun and remember to keep respect at all times.....

me too bro, I took days off all 3 days that Iran is playing.

My buddy bet me $100 that he thinks Angola will beat Iran. I laughed in his face and will win a easy $100 cant wait

where are all the world cup whores at?

so is rooney going to play to group stage games?

I think they are saving him for games 3 if they need him or perhaps the playoff stages

**soccer#3** · 06-07-2006, 08:55 PM

i cant believe rooney is training again after such a short time.. totti had the same injury and he just got back to training like 2 weeks ago after being out for several months

so are rooney and totti going to play in the group stages?

**soccer#3** · 06-07-2006, 09:37 PM

i doubt rooney will play in the group stages.. totti is back but i think he'll start off on the bench.. however italy has zambrotta and nesta injured wit minor stuff they both will likely play against US. gattuso is supposed to be out for 2 weeks too.

cisse just broke his leg and will miss the WC.. man that gotta suck

**juiceboxxx** · 06-07-2006, 11:02 PM

so many injuires this wc its weird

**JohnboyF** · 06-08-2006, 09:14 AM

Its all about France Baby !!!! HENRY ALL THE WAY!

**Prada** · 06-08-2006, 12:54 PM

I think top clubs are
1)Brazil
2)Argentina
3)Czech repub.(They might surprise)
4)France(sentimental reasons)

Italy would have a decent shot without the injuries.

**freakinhuge** · 06-08-2006, 03:50 PM

i think germany will make a big run, seeing as they are the home country. And it would be huge for U.S. soccer if our guys could make another run.

**juiceboxxx** · 06-08-2006, 06:15 PM

my top 4 pics are as follows....

1) Brazil
2) Italy
3) Holland
4) Czech Republic
5) Argentina

**juiceboxxx** · 06-08-2006, 06:16 PM

well boys tomarrow is germany v.s costa rica....

I think Germany will won 3-1, opening game crowd is going to go crazy.

I have bet soo much $$$ lol better win some mulaaa

**pepperoni** · 06-08-2006, 09:27 PM

I hope England can do well, or even win it all, but realistically I do not see that happening. I think Sweden could maybe even beat them out for first in their group. I think England's group is one of the toughest, I dont think the group of death is even that tough. Sure you have two great teams in Argentina and Netherlands, but Ivory Coast and Serbia do not pose much of a threat at all.

I think we all know Brazil has the best chance to take it again. I dunno bout anyone else but I am sick of them, and everyone just loving them because they win, and everyone just hoppin on the soccer bandwagon when the world cup rolls around when they would never watch a game otherwise.

**soccer#3** · 06-08-2006, 09:32 PM

ur lists will fail trust me.. there's always at least two big nations that fail miserably.. and there's always at least one nation that nobody would expect go far end up doing very well my guess this time is ukraine if sheva is well

**Flagg** · 06-09-2006, 04:29 AM

Zidane is back in the French team, Cisse is out with a broken leg!! Im glad Zidane is back as he was my favourite player in the world at one point.

At the gym they're doing a Worldcup sweepstake..here's me thinking i'd get England but...I get Paraguay! :S

Aw well, IT ALL STARTS TODAY!!! COME ON ENGLAND!!

**Chemical King** · 06-09-2006, 04:35 AM

my g/f went nuts today cos i painted the St.George flag on her newly plastered and painted wall. It is a full floor to ceiling one as well.lol

I only bin with her for 4 wks and she did say to get her place ready for the world cup so i was pleased when i found a tin of red paint, and the walls were already cream. lol

**Flagg** · 06-09-2006, 04:37 AM

She'll get over it King once England win their first match!

**Flagg** · 06-09-2006, 04:20 PM

Germany 4 Costa Rica 2

Poland 0 Ecuador 2

**soccer#3** · 06-09-2006, 04:35 PM

the germany game was good and entertaining but the ecuador game was a lil slow. but both were still good games... 8 goals in 2 games-not bad at all

cant wait to see sweden tomorrow

Germany has good midfield and offense but with this defense you can see them losing the 1st game of the playoffs (2nd stage) like I said before.

They wont go far. Costa rica had like 3 shots on net and 2 goals thats pathetic.

I was thinking Poland was going to dominate the game though the Ecuador team was too stronge physically and skill wise.

Poland hit the post twice man they just werent ment to win this game.

I personally think Poland is over. I think they will tie or lose to Germany then beat costa rica and even then it will be too late.

**l2elapse** · 06-10-2006, 12:43 AM

germany sucks yo...costa rica MADE them look good

**AnabolicAndre** · 06-10-2006, 01:28 AM

Has no one given any thought to portugal being in the top running they have a really amazing team!

well we will see..

portugal vs angola sunday 1pm it will be insane considering theyre arch enamies.

**Booz** · 06-10-2006, 11:54 AM

well done England....looked very dodgy in the second half tho....crappy substitutions from a crappy manager..............
well done Trinidad n Tobago a well deserved draw.................

how are portugal and angola arch enemies? i just dont see the connection

**soccer#3** · 06-10-2006, 12:08 PM

i'd consider spain being portugals arch enemy

**Booz** · 06-10-2006, 02:55 PM

Dammm the Argies won......................

**Flagg** · 06-10-2006, 02:57 PM

England 1 Paraguay 0

Oh dear, what can I say. Yes we won and im glad but im not afraid to say I actually fell asleep during this game :S

Sweden 0 Trinidad 0

Stella game, Trinidad acted like they won at the end!!!

Agrentina 2 Ivory Coast 1

What a game!!! Easily the best game of the world cup so far, football at it's highest quality!! Drogba, Yaya Toure were giants.

**Flagg** · 06-10-2006, 02:58 PM

Booz, brilliant game, I was WILLING the Ivory Coast to win!! I think they'll come second in their group still.

hopefully mate...i love the underdogs in big tournaments.............

**Prada** · 06-10-2006, 05:15 PM

Interesting no blow outs so far. Tight, score wise, games so far. I think there will be a couple surprise teams maybe in quarter finals.

**StoneGRMI** · 06-10-2006, 07:32 PM

Germany and Argentina are the two teams that I think look the best out of the teams that have played thus far. Germany needs to stop playing the flat back defense though against teams that are that much faster than them. I love the WC, its like Christmas only comes every 4 years.

**juiceboxxx** · 06-10-2006, 08:43 PM

WoW WoW WoW bravo trinidad and tobago.....I have alot of respect for them now.

I didn't think they were going to record a single point but they proved me and alot of others wrong. Amazing defense and goal keeping from their side. Offense isn;t there but thats okay.

Argentina and ivory coast amazing game ..... I think ivory coast will fnish 2nd or 3rd it will be tight.

England cgame was very boring and I don think they even played well. They got a fluke goal and a own goal won them the game. They must step up the offense next game.

**juiceboxxx** · 06-10-2006, 08:44 PM

Iran v.s Mexico tomarrow CANNNNNNNNNNT WAIIT .........I predict a tie

I hope we win but a tie will be very well done from our side.

Portugal will finish 1st in their group (group d) it will be a race for 2nd between Mexico and Iran......

Angola use to be a part of Portugal, they are not enemies they never even played each other before but it will be an exciting game. I predict 3-0 Portugal.

**bruinsball22** · 06-10-2006, 08:47 PM

Go ENGLAND!!!! Seems like they have too much talent. IMO. i will be shocked if they do not make it to the finals

**juiceboxxx** · 06-10-2006, 08:47 PM

Holland will take serbia tomarrow but it will be a hard task cuz serbia has amazing defense. In all the qualifing games they let in 1 goal only.

**juiceboxxx** · 06-10-2006, 08:49 PM

lol finals? r u jokin? they will finish 1st or 2nd in their group then lose in the 1st or 2nd playoff game.

I dont they will reach the finals. I hope they do cuz they are my team though I dont think it will happen if they play the same way they did againt Paraguay.
