Good Riddance to WC 2006! This must be one of the most boring world cups that I have seen. The only memory I have of this world cup is that I slept during all 3 England games! Their performance were diabolical!
Many friends and Singaporeans are England supporters. I am not. I only support Liverpool. I think the Liverpool lads were treated badly by Eriksson during the WC. Stevie G was played out of position but still got 2 goals; what can you say when Hargreaves replace Carragher at right back? Crouch did alright but have to give way when the naive Looney came back. How can Looney play alone upfront? Crouchy would do a better job.
I had high hopes for the African teams but once again, they let me down. I had the impression that they had shored up the defence from what I saw in the Cup of African Nations. With so many players playing in Europe and some in Germany, some African teams, in particular Tunisia and Ghana would stand a chance. They were a huge disappointment
This might surprise all my friends - I did not watch the finals. Italy and France? can't be bothered. Zizou's headbutt was discussed all over the media. My friends think that this could be kelong, as what most Singaporeans think when a favourite loses a match or a star loses his "head"! By the way, Materrazi was a bluenose (Everton).
Anyway, the WC is over. Bring on the EPL!
For my fellow Liverpool fans, there will be a friendly against Wrexham this Saturday. Hopefully Channel 22 would screen the game.
Not a Liverpool Fan but a Liverpool Fanatic
