I can't pick France because we lost Sagna and Abidal... that's 2 WC fullbacks. Debuchy is fine. But Evra makes me vomit lol.

Defense wins competitions imo.

So pick.... Spain again. Germany's Low is too focused on attack.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu May 17, 2012 5:26 pm

Dont pick Evra then lol, Clichy has probably been atleast defensively the best LB in the PL this season i dont understand why Blanc would'nt pick him instead.

He's superior in nearly every fashion.

by sportsczy Thu May 17, 2012 5:30 pm

Blanc selected Gourcuff :vagi:

He's not into making last minute changes. Evra is ahead unless he flops in the training and friendlies and Clichy beats him. Besides, it's not a great idea to play 2 offensive-minded fullbacks.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu May 17, 2012 5:34 pm

I understand the not making last minute changes.... but two attacking fullbacks i dont its not like Clichy and Debuchy are Alves lol.... they are complete fullbacks and solid in all areas... ok they are no Abidal or Sagna in defence but still.

Besides dont you consider Evra a offensive fullback?

by Le Samourai Thu May 17, 2012 5:37 pm

Evra offends sight.

That's about it.

Not with France NT. He's not allowed to. Blanc forces him to stay back... which is why he's actually done well in the past year.

As for Montolivo, he will not be the ideal Trequartisa. You see, the way Prandelli focuses his system is by having the midfield rotate in the diamond. So at first it will be Montolivo, however during the game, you will see Pirlo slotted in the hole while Montolivo is the Regista. In circumstances in defending, De Rossi will be at the back, while the rest switch to their respective positions.

It's used to confuse their oppposition, and to me works great. The only problem is, none of the above are true treqaurtistas. Sure, Prandelli says he dosen't require one, as he wants to focus on 'modern football', but at the end of the day... he trully has at his disposal a tremendous talent like Verratti would would fit quite nicely. Imagine, Pirlo and Verratti two players who first started off as Trequartista and now Regista's rotating in these roles.. that would be an unstoppable creative force.

I think i feel like i've read a similar post somewhere especially on this forum..And i know who wrote that.

Anyways welcome to the forums !

I would like Spain to defend their crown. Not because of fandom or whatever but just to see Mole and others find the many excuses they could come with it as to why (insert country) couldn't beat Spain.

Why would i care? iam half spanish lol..... i just think this a tournament too far.

If they win you wont get no excuses from me.

by Doc Thu May 17, 2012 9:28 pm

Half Spaniard huh, honestly didn't know that. Still, just take your name out and replace it with one of the usual anti - Spain NT posters and my point still stands...

by S32TABLANCA Thu May 17, 2012 10:03 pm

Arent you supporting Spain Mole? hmm

by Le Samourai Thu May 17, 2012 10:04 pm

Mole allegiance with Spain ended upon the death of his King Bobby :coffee:

I guess it must be England's consistent underachieving that completely drowns you lot of any patriotism... so you would never support Country over Club? Laughing

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu May 17, 2012 10:44 pm

I actually refuse to support England because its full of c*nts because iam from the same country as Terry, Cole, Rooney etc etc dont mean i should have to support them.

It has nothing to do with underachievement i stopped supporting england when Shearer retired.

Do you not feel something stir inside you when you hear the great English anthem of... um...

yeah, I get your point Laughing

Still, maybe because I support a foreign big club, country comes first every time. I dont even care as much about my local club

Stop being delusional. There's no doubt about his talent and he's actually a decent person (observation from his interview with 'I'm the best rocker in the business' Noel) But there are times when he looks so disinterested in playing and all he wants to do is to hurt someone. That was not the only time he left his studs like that.
