Have you even been in Valencia Waghlon? Because if you don't, you don't know what a paella is. In the rest of Spain is just a typical dish done to get some money from the paella-avid tourists.
I cannot agree more. Some of my familly are there, and cooked the best marvellous paella ever

Octopus Paul decided for Germany and Spain.
After about 10 min he ate the German mussel and after just 1 min the Spanish mussel.
So it looks like a clear 5:0 for Spain against Netherlands
Bye the way, didn't Paul get the result for the final of EC 2008 wrong when he predicted the rest right?
I don't like advertising, but I'll do it a bit this time...
During this WC I've found some very interesting websites which, sadly, have no equivalent in my native tongue (lescahiersdufootball is not a bad one, but you'd better master French to read it, and it doesn't go half as deep as the english-speaking ones), such as Zonal Marking. I've also read an article on the Guardian today, about how this WC has been ruled by different sorts of 4-2-3-1 systems, despite clubs more or less abandoning it nowadays to favour various 4-3-3.
Anyone else reading them, or able to tip me other good sites with decent analyses ?

Great great match, beautiful football, but what a shame for Forlan, I wish he would have been the best scorer... anyway, nice WC for Uruguay and German, they were great nations there.
You said they had no luck, I proved you wrong, you admitted it, end of story.
The rest of your post is an entire new subject basicly. I.e. irrelevant.
Ok smart-arse, I confessed to it
Spain can be the favorites unless The Netherlands score first... Anyway, go Spain go for it!
I agree.. first goal will be huge. Although I did say the same before Brazil too... Dutch proved they can fight back, and I expect Spain to sit back if they pull ahead too. I feel almost entirely the same as v Brazil btw, not the favorite but with a chance. Spain may be a little more difficult than Brazil but on the other hand, they played bad 3x and good 3x pretty much, both teams did what they needed to do and nothing more, just advance by one goal each time.
