DieselDaisy Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I tend to watch football with my mother as we have some interesting conversations and she is a bigger fan of football than me. One conversation which happens whenever ''the Jeeerrmans'' play is basically an answer to the following question: ''which member of the German team can you envision in a SS uniform?''. This happens every two years. You'll here things like this: ''that Schweinsteiger, I can just imagine him marching the Jews to the gas chamber, with his big leather boots and his death cap''. We have narrowed it down to Schweinsteiger. Schweinsteiger seems to be the only outright, movie villain Nazi, left. Muller and Kroos and one or two others would pass as ordinary WWehrmacht. I mourn for the days of Oliver Khan!! Enlightened bunch, my family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Jesus, Americans should be banned from commentating on football. I almost yearn for Shearer's refrain about 'strikers getting into wide positions'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len Cnut Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I find them quite impartial and fair as commentators, our lot, as much as i prefer em, dont half come off as prejudiced sometimes. And other times they talk absolute cobblers. 14 minutes ago, DieselDaisy said: Mascerano is still playing? I remember him from world cup 2006. Hes 32 and still sharp as a tack.

He's only 29!! He's at his prime now!! Heck he could have another two at a push, albeit the second one as a super sub. The Argies won't like this. I watched a documentary about Messi in the build up to the last World Cup and I know he is not really loved in Argentina. There is a feeling that he has not played his best football for them, and that he is ''more Spanish'' than Argie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is fair to say he did not meet all the basic requirements of a 1980s Australian Cricket Captain. He even talked posh!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
