World Cup 2010 South Africa

mille grazie, lippi, you still think you brought the best italian players to south africa??? shame on you and shame on the most of your players, they never deserved to wear the italian colours...15 good minutes in 3 matches is very bad!!

...the level in all the matches of this group were very very low...seems austria would also have had a chance in this group

thanks very much italy and slovakia...the last 15 minutes were the best minutes so far of all matches...that is what all the people want to see at a world cup!!

yeah, he was a hero 4 years ago, although he left 1-2 players out of the team who would have deserved the world cup in germany.

but this year he was strictly critised in italy for a lot of players he nominated or not nominated...of course he is the team manager and has the final decision, but i think he knows now one or another decision was wrong...too mayn juve players in who also had problems during the season...it was quite obvious that they would also have problems with their performance in south africa.

well, my favourite team is out now, so i will support chile and uruguay which i think showed the best performances so far ...and of course i'm hoping for argentina with all their great players like messi, veron, milito, tevez

Not so big i guess... nations with great football tradition of course, but history doesn't play the matches,
players do, and i think the guilt is on the coaching, with they ultra conservative and defensive play tactics.

Go SouthAmerica!!!

2 'big' countries out of the tournament.

This is WC is already interesting in this stage now Italy and France are out.

By what I have seen and heard they both didn't deserve to go through to the next round.

i don't think that the smaller teams are doing so much better than the bigger teams at this world cup...they don't show offensive play either, but the bigger teams like italy, france, england, ... are/were showing horrible performances.

the level of the matches at this world cup is very low...hopefully in the next rounds that will change.

i definately agree with you...italy for example has great offensive players too, but they are nearly never allowed to show their qualities in this defensive tactic
