Hm, FUGO is not playing well recently and I think he is still injured and not fully recovered.
First off, it's Figo. Not "FUGO" tongue.gif And you may be right... but I think that from top to bottom Portugal has a solid line-up that doesn't totally depend on one player to put them over the top.Hm, FUGO is not playing well recently and I think he is still injured and not fully recovered.

Germany, they have been practicing the headers alot and 4 of their 8 goals in their last game were head shots. And by the way, the weakest team is China who made it to the WC the first time in history, ranked 50th.
Practicing headers? Doesn't everyteam? Saudi Arabia embarrased themselves and there is no way that Germany will score 4 headers in the same game AGAIN. Any team in the WC could've scored w/ four headers against the Saudis. Germany is in a rebuilding process as they'll be the next host of the games. Yes, they would like to do well but they are focusing more on development and being strong in the future cup. We're seeing alot of younger guys on their team that wouldn't really be seeing any action if it were not for developmental purposes.

My best friend is Portuguese, so I guess there's at least two or three of you in the US now, huh? You guys don't have a chance b/c the mighty US squad is in your group! By the way, are you like 5'5" too? I've come to the realization that no Portuguese person can surpass that height--if they do, they will eventually shrink like the rest of their fellow countrymen. (hahaha) Good luck...you guys will need it!

No, the problem is I CANNOT make up my mind. LOL Because my country is not in it, I am not too excited about it. I have always liked Portugal, but now I don't know any of the players and I don't know how well they are doing, so I don't want to be an ignorant and say that I like a team that I don't even know.QUOTE

I am with you Mark... Portugal better win. I mean, I prefer an European team to win and my favourite 3 ones are:
1. Portugal
2. Slovenia (gotta support my neighbours)
2. Denmark or England.

Hehehe Dani.
Italy is my #1 choice as well.
Then Portugal, then France.
I'm guessing you have changed your mind. Any reasons? smile.gif Hehehe Dani.Italy is my #1 choice as well.

I know Italy, because my step-father watches soccer every Sunday and he watches the Italian League, so I am more familiar.

2 or 3 of us in the U.S?? Hardly. If you want to find the pork chops simply go to MA. New Bedford, Boston & Rhode Island to be exact. I have tons of family down there and know that there are a ton of others!!! Lots in Cali as well!
I'm about 5'9..... but you're probably right. I probably will shrink back down to 5'5 with age. I'm pretty sure you I-talians have the same disease though.
We WILL prevail. The Italians play a boring style defensive game that just sucks ass!

in about 14 houts, Portugal is going to play against US. Some are saying Figo is not on the list. But true that Portugal is still gonna win by 2:1 I think. US team is still weak especially playing outside of its country. I do like Figo when he is playing well.(always got his name mixed up with another guy though wink )
