Euro 2008 Group A **Spoilers**

[NokkonWud]

Bosingwa looked awful the other night, looks like Chelsea have bought another gem.

I thought he was great bar the monobrow which makes him look like a neanderthal.

 

[netby]

José Bosingwa is a solid defender


Portugal and south of Spain was the last redoubt of Neanderthal

Love how people are confusing the Ricardos!

Ricardo 1 - Spanish, was backup United keeper for a while, then went to Villareal I believe, never played for Portugal

Ricardo 2 - Portuguese, far better, played for Sporting CP most of his career I think, Portugal keeper.

Happily accept I got the wrong player - but some of the Portuguese goalie's fumbles reminded me of the keeper we had all too clearly

yes he is atrocious

Ok Now go and make Bosnich and Barthez look good - a few seconds on youtube doesnt really prove anything

One great game doesnt always cancel out several bad ones

 

[NokkonWud]

Yes, Ricardo is good at saving Penalties. Whoop-di-doo. .

Funnely enough it's the Man U "fan" that is confused by them

How many years ago was he a bit part player for Man Utd - hmmm wow I made a mistake - god forbid around here

Ive lived in Salford (for those of you who dont know thats within a couple of miles of central Manchester) for a good portion of my life and supported them for nearly 20 years - but hey Im human, I make mistakes

Bloody glory supporters

Turan should play today for Turkey, wanted by Newcastle "apparently"

 

[Ripper]

Should hopefully be a good game between Portugal and the Czechs today. We'll get a better understanding of how good Portugal are anyway.

Hopefully Simao doesn't start and Nani or Quaresma play instead.

 

[Shamikebab]

I think this could be more uneven than it looks, Portugal just have extra quality all over the field imo.

 

[Ripper]

Portugal starting with the same team

 

[NokkonWud]

Hopefully Simao doesn't start and Nani or Quaresma play instead.

Same. Simao was very disappointing last time around and my opinion was that Nani and Quaresma were both better players than Simao prior to this tournament, he did nothing to change my mind .

 

[Visionary]

Portugal 1-0 Czech (Carvalho)
Switzerland 0-2 Turkey (Nihat 2)

 

[Shamikebab]

Yeah I expected Quaresma to start, surprised Nani came on over him, but then Nani played very well. Some teams are so spoiled for choice!

 

[Stinky]

Portugal 2 - 1 Czech
Switzerland 0- 0 Turkey

 

[BaZ87]

Portugal 1-0, Deco with the goal.

 

[NokkonWud]

Took him enough goes .
Very unlucky from Cech, 2 fantastic saves (though he nearly took Deco's legs away which would have had him sent off ).

 

[BaZ87]

Hopefully that goes down as 2 saves for the FF scores.

 

[NokkonWud]

Aye. I managed to get Jankulovski on the bench, so I hope all my players play and it doesn't go down as an O.G . Possibly an assist for Cech .

 

[weringo]

Oh ****, I forgot about fantasy football and left Henry as captain. I'm going to have to waste my wild card again
