Curse you, and your inverted commas.

Seriously though, I always knew you were anal, but I figured you were more of a waxer. Plucker, even. You know, 'cos you're meticulous an' all.

Another entertaining game last night, good tournament this.

Germany did a bit of Portugal though in the first half, lots of mistakes bad passes n all.

Schweini´s goal was so cool, especially when you consider they were a goal down. Klose the kangaroo, must be one of the best headers of the bal in the world and Lahm, well I do like attacking right/left backs made up for his defensive mistakes.

Turkey played well but had massive gaps in thier formation at times.

Anyone else have TV problems, I missed about 10 minutes of the game?

Best player:- Torres..

...Only joking, Arshavin if he keeps up the level in the remaining game(s) and doesn´t get outdone by Villa doing well in the remaining game(s)

There's been trouble around the world I think. Some weird storm shit in Vienna. We had some Swiss TV for a while.

yeah motd explained there was an electrical storm. when they were talking after the game you could see the lightning. i missed the last ten minutes of that game last night, which was a bit crap. good game though.

russia to win tonight. 2-1

I had no picture but some useless commentator attempting to commentate per mobile phone. The when the picture returned the commentator was a few seconds ahead of the video, so you heard the goals before you saw them, very odd indeed.

I´d like Russian to win, but I think Spain have the balance and composure to take it. But with this tournament its all down to who´s on form on the day, unless your Germany who win even of they play bad.

boring game but the Spornaya will eventually win this one...4:2 in penalty shooting...

I'm still waiting for Torres to be top scorer as predicted.

Cos from what I've seen, he bottled chance after chance until he was subbed off...again, for Guiza to come on and score.

I sure hope Wenger signs that Fabregas.

Here's betting VVD likes to Zhirkov.

Yes, amazing left back.

I masturbate while watching him.

Player of the tournament- dunno yet. Fabregas if he got to play. Maybe Pigclimber.

Deutschland all the way !!

it was Russia´s turn to "do a Portugal" this time and play a lot worse than previously, although Spain did pressurize and looked impressive.

Torres looked very nervous, missed lots of chances and showed below par ball control, he´s not suited as a center forward, better of on the left wing. A shame Villa won´t be in the final, & surely they have to play Cesc from the start now, absolutely brilliant! his pass/lob for the second goal was something special. Real should be after him not Ronaldo, but Barcelona would be the best option seeing as he was "stolen" from thier academy anyway.

About time he played for a decent club.

Oh, you schwein! 'Pigclimbing' sounds like another interesting activity that AC would enjoy...

Berbatov would be my player of the tournament, if Bulgaria were at the finals. Oh, and Zidane if he was still playing.

You're truly getting pathetic. Stop trying to bait AC. It's getting annoying.

The final will be close. Hopefully Spain will pull it out, but should probably be watching Torre. He missed way too many chances last game, but he should become more clinical today. If he doesn't, Guiza impressed and it won't be that much of a step down.

Wasn´t actually baiting, I actually meant it he would fit perfectly into the Barcelona squad the way he plays.

I think the key factor in the final will be Germanys rather chaotic defense, Spain will cut it to pieces. The Germans are strong, fast and like the underdog role.

How was that going to be achieved by saying "It's about time he played for a decent club."?

Why not "He'd fit in well at Barca."?

That's a rather contrary statement.
