no offense 
I was just thinking of the scene where someone asks him "why are you so mean? why do you hurt people's feelings all the time?" and he looks at her as if it's the most obvious question ever...

Stereotypes...
I don't think I'm a typical german(I love football, drink loads of Beer...B))
No, I don't hate England or English, I mean I lived there for three years and English is nearly my mother tongue, It's just still a good feeling to be better than them in Football

Sure Germany got through but that case is arguable since you couldnt beat Wales in Germany, and Wales arent a particularly great football nation.

Yes, the last few games against Czech Republic, Wales and Ireland weren't so good, but we were already qualified at that time which could be a reason. And we've got quite a few injured players but thats no excuse against wales.

due to England's awful showing at this years qualifiers we have dropped to 12th in the world rankings, even Greece have overtaken us
Also we will only make 2nd seeds at World Cup 2010, which, to put it nicely, is a bitch
also more people are coming into the frame for the England job
Franz Beckenbauer has urged England to appoint former Germany boss Jurgen Klinsmann to replace Steve McClaren.
Beckenbauer says Klinsmann, 43, has the right creditentials having guided Germany to the semi-finals in the 2006 World Cup and played with Tottenham.
"The job would be ideal for him and England as well," Beckenbauer said.
"Jurgen has very clear ideas who can enforce them. He knows what he wants, he speaks very good English and would revel in the England job."
I really can't see us appointing a German coach though

He isn't really a very good coach either, he only did well with the german team because he had Löw as an assistant who is a really good coach

The English public would rather see Mclaren be made England manager again than for a German to be put in charge |

No need for that... We´ll give you Scolari and we'll throw in Ricardo, C.Ronaldo, Quaresma, Postiga and Nuno Gomes... All out of the goodness in our hearts...

The nine seeded teams are expected to be Italy, Spain, Germany, Czech Republic, France, Portugal, the Netherlands, Croatia and Greece.
England and Scotland in group 2.
Northern and Republic of Ireland in group 3.
Wales in group 4 with Slovakia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Hungary, Moldova, FYR Macedonia, Belarus, Lithuania and Cyprus.
You could probably just go through https://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/ran...5&rank=163 and group together the first 9 European countries, then the next 9 and so on.

9000 Danes have voted in a poll of who they would least like to meet and who they would most like to meet.
This is the most preferable group:
Greece
Israel
Denmark
Cyprus
Iceland
San Marino
And this is the worst possible group:
Spain
England
Denmark
Bosnia
Austria
Montenegro |

Spain? England? Bosnia?
football isn't high on most Danes' knowledge list, is it?

Yes i was replying to Crue's most preffered group as voted for by the Danish dudes.
You were slightly quicker in replying which caused the confusion
