Paraguay is a very pressing side when you look at them and Spain weren't able to play the football they like and know. Germany, on the other hand, like counter attacking and aren't good at pressing compared to Paraguay.
I predict a spain and holland win in the semis. |

I think Germany will win though.

If Uruguay get through and Suarez gets to play in the final, it'll be one of the biggest injustices in a major football tournament. Can't believe they didn't take the option to ban him for further games.

I tuned in around the 78' mark. Glad to see that Holland won. Go home, Suarez!
It'll only be too good if Spain face off against Uruguay on Saturday and defeat them. That way Uruguay won't even place in the top three and Ghana will be fully avenged. One thing's for certain: should both teams make it to World Cup 2014, the rivalry is on! lol

You're backing Germany to beat Spain then? The German psychic Octopus says otherwise. I think it's hard to call, but does rather rely on Spain playing better than they did against Paraguay. Given the two teams performances in the last round, I'd agree with you.

Concept, you don't seriously believe in this "psychic octopus," do you? Sigh. Time to copy and paste from another board ...

You thought I was a retard for betting against Paul, so I thought you the bigger retard for betting with him.

Is that it's name? What a boring name for an Octopus. Back on topic, The top four is hard to call now. I'd go; 1.Germany 2.Holland 3.Spain 4.Uruguay If Spain continue to play as they have. If they play as we know they can though, that makes Germany-Spain near impossible to call. That semi-final will probably decide the winner though, I doubt Holland will beat either of those sides (although I said that about Brazil, and one can always hope - come on Holland!).

Germany don't stand much of a chance. Now that Mueller is gone Germant can't press Spain like Paraguay did and any attempt to counter-attack (which is the only thing that has got Germany this far) is null thanks to Spains impressive average of 500 passes per game.
Any attempt to press with Klose will be countered thanks to a great defensive line-up of Ramos, Pique, Puyol and Capdevilla. Germany won't be able to bring up the midfield to press either as Xavi Alonso and Alonso will be able to walk over the midfield and play their style of football. I predict a 2-0 or 2-1 Spain win. |

EDIT the first: Hey, you edited. Well done. You noticed I didn't actually insult you at any point, just got pissed off at being treated like a four year old. Listen, for future reference, treating people like retards for no good reason then crying to mommy that they insulted you won't win you any friends, 'kay? It's the sort of thing I expect on SPPfail, not here. You're better than that. EDIT the second: Let's just move on, this is pointless. Back to football.

So I post what I posted. Then you explode. "I AM NOT A RETARD! DO NOT TREAT ME LIKE I AM A RETARD! REEEEEOOOOOOWWWWRRR!" Then I reply. Then I edit the reply immediately because I don't want to have to make it into this reply. But you catch it. And demand this reply. So here you go.

Agreed.
An apology? Sorry I hurt your feelings. Sorry I assumed you were that retarded. Sorry I assumed a member of the 40th percentile of humanity had made it onto UPN. |

EDIT the first: Got to hope Holland win, never thought I'd actually have a chance at seeing any of my money back. Stuck a fiver on both Holland and England right back at the beginning, not because I thought they'd win but because they're the two teams I follow regularly (being English, but with a lot of Dutch relatives).
