HAHAHAHAHA that's a good one. It's ok, we bowed out to the eventual Euro Champs, and not Russia!!

Even though the Dutch lost this one, you can't argue Italy, and Toldo, deserved to come out the victors.

And how is Canada doing this year?

**Pennypacker** · 04-06-2009, 09:04 AM

Im proud of our 1986 World Cup appearance, no goals, no wins, we were just happy to be there!

I was born here, my parents were born in Italy. Obviously our country is hockey-dominated, with Toronto FC and Vancouver in the MLS, football is slowly gaining a much larger fanbase.

**jero** · 04-06-2009, 09:12 AM

try a Dutch coach: Australia, Poland, Russia....

**Pennypacker** · 04-06-2009, 09:20 AM

We just recently fired our coach. We've had 5 or 6 English and German coaches in our history, most of our success, I know its not alot, but the qualification for the WC was with an English manager, and our 2000 Gold Cup Championship was with a German.

How bout you come over jero and lead our team to glory??

I guess I'll post this in this thread...

He's personally one of my favourite footballers, I've followed him through his career at Inter, and watched him hit the back of the net many times internationally. If he signs, definitely going to watch Toronto FC - LA Galaxy.

Vieri wants MLS chance

Ex-Azzurri marksman Christian Vieri is reportedly preparing to travel to America for a trial with Los Angeles Galaxy.

The veteran hitman rescinded his contract with Atalanta last week after an unhappy spell in Bergamo that was blighted by injury.

The fans gave Vieri a cold reception as he left the Orobici for Fiorentina in the summer of 2007.

Some experts had expected Vieri to hang up his boots, but the latest reports suggest that he may have other ideas.

Italian celebrity magazine Chi suggests that Bobo is keen to sign for the LA Galaxy and is preparing for a trial with the MLS club.

Vieri has been playing for 20 years and has represented Inter, Milan, Lazio, Fiorentina and Monaco amongst others.

not 98th, 89th!! Its ok, we`re still ahead of powerhouses Albania, Iceland, Cuba and China

. How nations like Mozambique and Rwanda are ahead of us is a major question!

I`m still trying to figure out how the hell we were 55th in 2007!

The only reason were 89 is because the Dutch stole Jonathan de Guzman from us!!!!

**jero** · 04-08-2009, 10:06 AM

ah, you are awake! 89th!

De Guzman is in my team Feyenoord. When he is fit he is okay, but the wanker is always hurt! Not so long ago (I thought it was Newcastle) we could sell him for € 14 million but we didn't let him go. Two months later he was out for a year beacuase of his hamstring.

We have the worst season in history.....we have lost 12 fucking matches!!! Thanks to that canadian fag! (just kidding)

Well, there`s your problem right there, your a Feyenoord fan, doesnt get worse than that :tongue0011:.

I can admit I`m not worried we lost Jonathan, his brother Julian is a much better player, plays for Deportivo, and represents Canada. He was solid in the 2007 Gold Cup, but, we got screwed against those damn Americans (If there`s one team I hate more than Portugal its the US!!)

I try to forget 02...Feyenoord knocked out my team in the semi`s

I really hope Portugal doesn't qualify for the World Cup. One more loss, even another draw really puts qualification in jeopardy

Adriano (temporarily) retires...

I remember when he broke into the scene at Parma, playing alongside Gilardino. When he joined Inter, he was phenomenal, scoring many clutch goals, and it was a joy to watch him those years. He hasnt been the same the last few years though.
