Huge conspiracy theory to get Portugal to win the Cup.

Obviously the Greeks didn't sign up for this party. :lol:

Incidentally, never mind the French potentially going out, the funniest thing about this game is listening to Pleat's attempts to pronounce Lizarazu, he's not even came close :lol::lol::lol:

Yep, good to see the big time charlies being cut down to size. Now hopefully the Dutch will be next for the chop and a diddy team will win the competition. Did you hear the comentator saying "the Greeks will be thinking England now" with about 10 minutes left? What a fud :lol:

The Greeks did well tonight but the French were simply awful. Even Scotland could've managed to give them a very decent run for their money tonight. I'm sorry to say this but I think Zidane's past his prime and I actually found it painful to watch him creeking about the park, miscontrolling the ball and misplacing passes that 2 years ago would've looked rediculously easy for him. The French team needs freshened up with some new faces and I was disappointed Rothen didn't get more of a chance for them as he is currently one of my favourite players.

Well done the Greeks, but the French should really take a long look at themselves.

France missed Vieira. They should have played Rothen in midfield, instead of Makelele, with Vieira, Zidane and Pires. That would've given them width and a shape in midfield. The way they were playing, was quite simply a shambles.

Can't agree with that I'm afraid. He wasn't great tonight but he light up the French matches in the group stages IMO. ;)

Apart from 2 (brilliant) kicks against England I didn't feel as though he had done much in their opener and although he picked up against Croatia he was nowhere near the Zidane of old. I missed the Switzerland game so I can't comment on that but he was nothing short of poor tonight.

On the subject of Greece, the number of teams you were putting money on something had to come through :P

Smart money would have to be Germany, Spain or Holland though. Very good prices

:P
