Exactly. I dont want to start that boring talk about them but yesterday every other post was about messi being past it. And no mention about Ronaldo being poor today.
Just look at the first few pages of this thread, the comments about Löw are so over the top. The Moyes comparison is a bit far fetched.
At least we have a few unhappy Germany fans right now because their team is winning. Wanting to get hammered to get rid of Löw and all that...
...added to that, the ref was in full view of the incident. What a brainless player he is.
The way the Portuguese want to give the ball to Ronaldo at all times is ridiculous.Coentrao was once in a good position to shoot, pussy attitude.
I hate Chiles with the best of them - but that's the best he's been for a while. Actually, passionately portraying an opinion about... well... football.
More of that Adrian - less of that 'one for the lads' bollocks.

Germany always lose to Italy.
One thing he can't stand is cheating. A true campaigner for justice.Where in my post did I say it was acceptable.Because that makes it okay
I cannot believe ITV spent the whole of half time debating the red card... Are they aware that there was a penalty awarded, and three goals scored?
Who the hell is "we"?
Behaves like a 12 year old though
And Span just won with a corner goal btw.
Exactly. Viera defending what should be indefensible, the cretin.Chiles is spot on. Why are people on here complaining?
It's horrendous stuff. Bunch of pansies. That's why I'm slowly but surely watching other sports more now.
For anyone interested, Müller screamed to Pepe: " What do you want from me? What? "
That was very easy lip reading.
That was very easy lip reading.
How's he being a prick there? He's actually - for once - doing his job... bringing up a solid opinion and raising an actual debate from his panel.
That's what ITV do - to them, controversy is always more important than the football.
Read my name then you know.
Contracts mean nothing in football anymore, they will sack him if he doesn't get out of the group imo.
Cheers. I tend to agree. He'd add a bit more explosiveness to this team that might make the difference late on.
Well this is Paulo Bento. He was the same at Sporting. Always insisting on the same formula, even if it doesn´t work. It was with Paulo Bento as manager that we got embarassed by Bayern 7-1 in the knock out stages of the Champions League because of his unidimensional tactics. I could say that this would be our Euro2004 moment after we lost the opening match against Greece and Scolari changed the team to put Ronaldo, Deco and Ricardo Carvalho but with Bento i doubt that will happen. He rather see us lose than admit he was wrong with his choices.
I think the likes of Meireles and Almeida wouldn't get any minutes in Bosnian team, let alone some top teams, surely you can find better midfielder than Meireles at average Portuguese club.
Holy shit!
He better be sure retrospective ban for misconduct doesn't exist here. That would be worth a ban.
I think Muller could have Pepe though.
Arguing in the studio, that Pepe had a right to feel aggreived.
Rewind a couple of weeks, Valencia out of order being upset at Sterling trying to break his leg.

Chiles is an arse but he has a point. He's just not doing a good job of putting it across.
He also wouldn't be half as indignant if it was an English player - they've all done exactly what Muller has at some point.
Pepe is a prick though. Can't stand him. Should have been red carded a lot more than he has, and his disciplinary record is abysmal already.

Vieiras in the wrong.
In reality he is probably the nicest guy you could meet. Very funny and down to earth, not the slightest bit arrogant.
That's my gripe with this forum and the press in general, it works both ways.
Germany and the Netherlands have been the most impressive and organised sides so far.
Decent game from Nani but story of his career in nutshell this game. Nearly man and what could have been.
I see a punishment coming.
What an idiot.
He's only voicing his opinion because the player in question is German. He says feck all when England players do it.
Am I missing something? Unless he's had a terrible accident they're both his index finders.
Muller should have been sent off for play acting. Pepe should have been sent off for acting hard and "headbutting" Muller. Vieira and Cannavaro should be sent off for setting a bad example to all the kids watching.
Agreed. There is a huge difference between his on the pitch and off the pitch persona. Similar to Ramos for example.
It was important to discuss it though. Muller should have been punished as well
What an atrocious dive from Muller. Disgraceful
Well, one can be sure Pepe had some choice words about the CL semis to Müller beforehands. Hate his guts, soft red, Müller acting - but then again, if I played against Pepe often and saw with how much crap this dude gets away, I'd resort to that to.
I completely agree with both of you. It's completely ridiculous. And Viera made a very good point before the game. At the highest level of football which this is, even the best players - Messi and Ronaldo, need a good team around them in order for them to play well. Ronaldo doesn't have that. Messi didn't have it in the first half, he got the help in the 2nd half.
