Rowan_Osborn 58 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Haven't seen enough of him as of yet, granted he's only 19 so we'll see. He did have a goal v. Holland but it wasn't a spectacular goal.Cheers, hopefully Lukaku can cement his place as Belgium's main striker. Given his physical characteristics and talent, I doubt he will play second fiddle to anyone but the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I remember the first qualifying match for the '98 world cup was away to Moldova. They're a bit better now but we should obviously still comfortably win the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a bit better now but we should obviously still comfortably win the game. I don't think they have gotten any better. I can't think of a single Moldovan player who was even an average player at an average club in any of the major leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 They're still not obviously that good but still better than they were all those years ago. They only lost to Holland 1-0 home and away in the Euro 2012 qualifiers and beat Finland. They do make it a bit harder and they will most likely park the bus so it scoring the first goal early would be nice. Also the pitch is apparently shocking. These matches aren't easy.Anyway the big one is October 12th. REVENGE ON SAN MARINO. Hope we score at least 10. I might even try n go, will be epic. Could play the 4th team and rest all the prem lads lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Group A is a pretty beastage group to be honest. There's no what you would call great teams but there are also no poor teams, this could be the tightest group of all. I wouldn't fancy going away to Serbia, Macedonia and Croatia because they are so tough and intimidating to go, very solid, tough nations. I reckon it will be the group with the most red cards though, so many derby matches. Serbia borders both Croatia and Macedonia and all the countries used to be together as Yugoslavia. And with Scotland and Wales both part of Britain it's gonna be very tasty. Also, with a team like Belgium, this is without doubt the most talented Belgium i've ever seen it's gonna be so hard for any team to get out of it. The other groups look pretty boring in comparison. Italy will cruise through Group BGermany will cruise through Group C although there are some nice games in there. Holland should easily win Group DGroup E... There's nobody good there at all lol. That group could be interesting. Group F has 2 good teams, Portugal or Russia is tough to callI hope Bosnia get through Group G, the group isn't much of a challenge at all tbh, Greece and Slovakia are certainly beatable. This is Bosnia's best chance yet. We (England) should get through Group H with minimal effort And Group I is a decent one with France and Spain, would pick Spain to top it.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Benteke is the player aston Villa bought right? Is he any good?Haven't seen enough of him as of yet, granted he's only 19 so we'll see. He did have a goal v. Holland but it wasn't a spectacular goal.Has still everything to prove imo. He's fast, strong and has good technique. Yes he did scored 16 times last season, but he should have scored 30! (No kidding)Goal against Holland:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsVRPMJeHWkAnother, not to spectaculair, video: His biggest issue is his moral i guess. Went from club to club and back to club and so on.. So i question if he has got the right attitude..Let's say he's a rough diamond with some potentional..

Jype 6,398 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Finland v France in a few hours. I think it's safe to say we got screwed in the draw with Spain and France both in our group. Oh well, there's always the next qualifying campaign. And then the one after that... Sheva. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton 2,120 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Let's say I wish you the best off luck to get some points agains Serbia & Croatia ^^I would be over the moon if you can take some points away from them :blue scalf:btw; I think this will be the team...Holding position on the midfield is uncertain. No clue yet where our trainer is goin to with that one. "Our midfield 4" can play everywhere on the midfield...CourtoisGillet Kompany Vermaelen VertonghenWitsel Dembélé(or Defour)FellainiMirallas -------------- HazardBentekeLukaku cant play a full game yet according to himself! But he will be our Supersub DeBruyne & Mertens also got a good chance to get in after 70'So with a little luck; Courtois, Hazard, Lukaku & DeBruyne all together on the pitch :blue scalf:Most expensive squad in the group, €216M some newspaper calculated earlier this week..
