World Cup Group C: Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast, Japan

[Mumorn]

Belgium would **** on this lot, surely? They just got a third, but Greece...?

I never said Belgium wouldn't **** on them, but in terms of dark horses, golden generation.. Colombia are going through one, like Belgium in Europe.

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

Better than Chile?

Chile are much more cohesive and technical.

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

How **** must Romania be?

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

In terms of technique that was the worst match so far.

still brought the goals though and thats great to see...

so far it's the best WC since 98.

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

Japan are great to watch, play superb football and have 3 standout players, one of the dark horses of the tournament. Will qualify comfortably in my view.

Agree with this. They are a great little unit.

 

[Yossarian]

Agree with this. They are a great little unit.

Will record their game with Ivory Coast. There are limits!

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

Will record their game with Ivory Coast. There are limits!

It should be an interesting game of contrasting styles and physicality.

 

[Mumorn]

Agreed, you'll get the better technical football and movement from the Japanese, but Ivory Coast have that power and pace in the mould of Toure, Drogba etc.

 

[Roy1983]

Ivory Coast should destroy the Japs tonight without any doubt in my mind.

and why do you think that?

 

[El Guepardo]

I agree that Ivory Coast will win. The game is becoming more about pace & power and Ivory Coast have that in abundance.

How **** must Romania be?

Really sh!t.........Chiriches being their best player should tell you something.

What has happened to Luis Muriel

 

[Mumorn]

What has happened to Luis Muriel

Not good enough

 

[Roy1983]

and why do you think that?

Have you seen the size of the japs? Have you seen Yaya, Drogba, Gervinho? It SHOULD be men vs boys out there!

Of course the little guys will pose problems but the strength will be the difference I think.

Going by the way football is nowadays, the "strength" of the Ivorians will be there downfall. Fouls galore I imagine. Plus, Japanese will be able to taste blood with Zokora at centre half for Ivory Coast.

 

[Denmark Spur]

Ivory Coast: Barry, Aurier, Boka, Tiote, Bamba, Zokora, Y Toure, Die, Bony, Gervinho, Kalou.

Japan: Kawashima, Uchida, Nagatomo, Hasebe, Morishige, Yoshida, Okazaki, Yamaguchi, Osako, Honda, Kagawa.

 

[Mumorn]

Okazaki, Honda and Kagawa!!

 

[Jordinho]
