    Anybody else feel embarrassed after watching Samaras today? He's so clumsy, I can't honestly see us keeping this kid.

    hosts can't be written off but do they have the quality to score a goal? frei is missing and tbh, i don't see anyone else taking a chance from what i seen in their first game
    going to look into taht game before betting.

    samaras mightn't hve had a good game.. but did any greek? what was he ment to do in 45 mins with no service?
    imo greece won't show samaras as the quality he is (wether he has 0 or loads of it)
    greece players all looked average. like an internatinal version of rangers

    Justice delivered in Greece getting beat, who were boring the absolute * off me sometimes. Who else winced when the Sweden boy got kicked in the bollocks? OWWWW!

    King of Kings had a good match I feel.

    aye true,frei is their main goal threat,but they did create a few cahnce,hit the bar and were unlucky with a few refereeing desitions(handball).i think turkey and the swiss are pretty much on a level par,give or take a few,but with home support,i fancy the swiss.but most of all i hope its a good game,a 4-4 thriller

    Embarrassed is way over board he had 45 minutes as a lone striker in possibly the shittest and most defensive team i've watched this year barring rangers, he's not a target man and never will be.

    On the other hand Henke has lost a wee bit of sharpness about the box but * me is the old brain still ticking away, he had 1 assist and should have had another if the boy he put through 1 on 1 with the keeper had a wee bit more composure. The man is a thoroughbred hero.

    Our Hero number 7 will still shine through at the tournament i think plus he set up 1 last night and Calvin Klein should have scored the one later on at the edge of the box. Samaras actually managed to fall over his own feet though :52: you have to give him a chance though because that was a rangers team the greeks had out there, its just that Samaras doesnt seem to be able to change games when your team is down

    Sure is. :50:

    I was initially surprised they started with Larsson, thought they were taking him to bring him on late games.

    However, after i saw the way he linked play and his intelligent off the ball movement it's no wonder he started and he lasted 90 mins. He was * at the end though but that's hardly surprising.

    Well done Henke, you've still got it!
