Brazil v Holland final for me

22

i would love it if Dirk Kuyt ended up with a World Cup winners medal

23

There are a lot worse footballers than David Luiz on that Brazil team in fact he has probably been their best player after Neymar and Silva in this world cup

24

+1

Robben as well.

25

he is a cunt of the highest order.

26

It is an underwhelming last 4 at the end of a fine tournament. There has not been an outstanding or deserving team such as there was for pretty much all of the 9 tournaments I recall, even if they did not always win it out.

I will go for Argentina, mainly to see Messi stuff it to Ronaldo.

I take your point but if someone wins their next two games by, say, 4-1* and 4-0* then they will be thoroughly deserving winners.

*or other random high winning margin.

I am going for an all European Final. The Germans will take Brazil tonight. Without question. The Netherlands have been great value throughout and Robben without question the best and most influential player so far.

29

If the Dutch win the World Cup then Robben deserves the Ballon d’Or, he’s been an immense player over the last 5 years or so and has not got near the recognition he deserves. I was quite annoyed at how Ribery was stealing all the plaudits for Bayern last season, I think Robben is vastly superior.

That’s it settled then. Forum heavyweights @Scrunchie[/USER], [USER=1796]@Mark Renton and myself are certain of an all European final.

Robin Van Persie a doubt for tomorrow night with a stomach problem

34

The poor bastard. Tell him to sip his dioralyte and not swamp it… I found that out that hard way.

35

@Rocko, any chance of Ozil being dropped for tonight.

36

No chance. TFK can exclusively reveal Klose will be dropped.

Egg on your face, pal.

Klose retained, Germany unchanged.

Dante and Bernard for Silva and Neymar. Luis Gustavo is back too actually.

It wouldn’t be an exclusive if Low was in on it. This was a well kept secret.

Surprised Brazil went for Bernard ahead of Willian.

A little like Cork leaving CiarĂĄn Sheehan on the bench in the Munster Final in Killarney last year. My sense is that Brazil have tapered their training to peak for the final on Sunday. They may well regret it yet.
