[goonerfan]

He has a back injury apparently, so we'll have to see if he is fit...

Does anyone have Paul's latest predo, or have they stopped doing that now lol. I wanna see if the lil guy can get a perfect record.

 

[OriginalJonty]

Germany will win 4-1.

 

[Cosimo]

I'll go for a Germany win in this one.

 

[SoliD]

This is on ITV later, but will BBC have online coverage, as I struggle with the ITV feed at work.

NVM just read the bbc link

8 nil to Germany with the goal keeper getting 6 of the goals.

 

[Fubsy]

This match will be better than the final. It's got goals in it, whereas the other match will be a borefest.

 

[sunnysingh]

I prefer the germans to win but hopefully Uruguay will push them all the way
hope klose gets his goals

 

[Robert1986]

Countdown to kick off has started on ITV4.

world cup is almost over again.

Remember the days when 3 games were on and everyones expectations of England doing well were still high? Ah, those were the days.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

If Forlan drops deep and makes up a three man central midfield when Germany have the ball they'll do well. If he stays up top in a two man attack Germany will dominate the midfield and smash them.

 

[Robert1986]

No Klose playing tonight? What happened?

EDIT: He is on the bench.

Also, Neuer is out and Butt is on. Neuer get goal keeper of the tournament by itv.

Think Germany will win this, Uruguay pretty much struggled their way through the lesser half of the ladder.

 

[Yas786]

Come on Uruguay...give the germans some more grief

 

[Shamikebab]

No Klose or Podolski

Who on earth is Aogo?

 

[explicit4u]

Podolski, Lahm, Klose and Neuer all benched WTF???

 

[OriginalJonty]

No Klose or Podolski

Who on earth is Aogo?

Klose has a cold. Don't know why Podolski wasn't picked and no idea who Aogo is. Probably another German wonderkid we've never heard of.

 

[OriginalJonty]

Yellow Card already! Aogo booked.

 

[Margaret]

I heard that a virus went through the German camp so maybe that's why a few of them are benched. Loew had to stay in bed for a few days and he looked pretty ill earlier.

 

[Yas786]

Should have been a red tbh...bad challenge :/
