Yeah just saw the formation, cheers lol. 4-3-3 change, interesting.

Completely disagree. Mikel is our most improved player in the last few years, while Kalou has been as stagnant as the British Economy . Mikel's elevated his game from that ill-disciplined teenager who got sent off every other game to a passing genius. He's made the biggest leap to maturity under the Abramovich years, comparing him to Kalou is quite the oxymoron.

The United one should've been expected tbh

Could not agree more. He's a much better DM (true DM) than Essien. He's taken the Makelele position & turned it into the Mikel position. Just a shame most don't realise it..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BPaXQux-FI Good to see him and Cech talking at the end.

They haven't worked for years I still remember back in December when the Daily Fail used the one of the pitch to "prove" we postponed the United game on purpose when it was "okay" to play. Fools

Even at a club like Bayern Munich? Who are one of the best in the world (on their day)?

No. He's already signed a new contract. It's not happening.

NO!! We can't sell him!! NO NO NO :|

Agreed! - Never know, could still happen.

Neymar claims racial abuse I think the lad's misunderstood banter

606 is full of fans who know nothing about football, trying to pretend they're otherwise. Don't bother imo.

It's hardly that. He had a good game today, so it gets complimented. Nothing more, nothing less.

there was an advert troll on here before

Ramires could've easily got himself a goal today! Excellent player for them, full of energy. Would like to see Luiz on, but I'm not complaining

:bs_spam: :pwned:

Good point! Now to panic over Ramires' inclusion

It's on ITV by the way

Brazil: Cesar, Alves, Lucio, Silva, Santos, Lucas, Ramires, Elano, Jadson, Neymar, Leandro Damiao. Luiz is on the bench

ESPN Or not ITV

Agreed, but that's not always a guaranteed victory. It's a funny old game this, the last team to win it in their own back yard was France in '98. Only 6 teams have done similar (Argentina, Uruguay, England, West Germany & Italy). I think Germany will probably have the best shot outside of Brazil. It remains to be seen, how strong Brazil will actually be, come 2014. I'll watch their match today (not that it will form my judgement) but I'm sure it won't be as strong at the '02 team that shook the world.

A lot can happen in 3 years. Germany, Spain, Brazil & perhaps Argentina (if they get their act together) will be the big threats. England, I'm not too hopeful one, considering we're at the stage of too old/too young. France could be a wild card, but we'll have to wait & see if Blanc has restored some discipline into that squad.
