Hmmm, so I do deduce from your comments that this is seen less as Germany v Argentina and more Dunkirk v the Falkland Isles?

Doesn't matter if you are pro ACL, anti ACL, pro Sisu, anti Sisu! This statement doesn't do anything to move us forwards and resolve the situation. Very stongly worded. The same statement could have been made with a bit more of a concilliatory stance. This one is 'you will do as you are told.'...

'Strong comments' certainly doesn't sound concilliatory.

Sounds like an entrenched stance to me. That's hardly going to push things forward.

Argentina for me. Think Brazil made Germany look absolutely brilliant and the Germans have shown a few frailties this tournament. Forget the Brazil game. That was just a freak event all round. Thought Messi was poor last night I am expecting him to shine in the final.

Good on them! :D

Apparently Holland manager Van Gaal has said this morning that 2 Dutch players refused to take penalties in last night's game. They deserved to go out if that's the case. Could imagine German players ever saying such a thing? That's the difference between winners and losers.

Aren't you sick to death though of Germans going to other countries and totally destroying everything in their path?

Have decided not to reply.

BBC all day long. Which is a bit daft considering the match doesn't kick off until late evening.

Think Argentina will do it, but have no idea how the game will pan out. Got a feeling that Robben will be kept a lot quieter tonight, but who knows. Feel if it ends up being a Messi / Robben battle then Messi will win through.

They would be kicking lumps out of each other. Almost guaranteed sending off too. Think Argentina for Brazil would be the only possible path of redemption for them.

You may live to regret that statement. :D I can't call tonight, but if Holland win I think the trophy is Germany's. I think if Argentina get though they will beat the Germans on Sunday.

Think if it's Holland germany, Germany will win.

There's an awful lot of bile and hatred flying round here these days. :( Surely we can all disagree with each other without having to get nasty can't we?

Germany themselves haven't been that good in this tournament. USA gave them a really good game, as did Ghana and then in the knockout phases both Algeria and France could have beaten them. Despite seemingly having a really good squad, this German team hasn't looked as good as in previous...

This was my first ever one. City kit 1969-1972.

Well that's how I felt during the game. I was in total conflict with myself. I was watching and kept saying to myself 'this must be fixed, but it can't be surely. It's a world cup semi-final.' The game just looked fixed. Can't believe it was, but it appeared that way as the game went on. There...

And as I say, I don't get this 'brilliant, outstanding' Germany thing. If your opposition plays that badly then I think almost any team would look like world beaters. At times it was almost like Germany didn't even have to put in any effort whatsoever to get the ball into the net, they merely...
