Yup, good all around defender, he didnt play that much for Real Madrid due to injury but when he did (Nou Camp) He was as solid as Vidic but could also play abit.

Ok im a bit over critical of Altintop but Nihat was very disapointing. I expected an awful lot more. Look at Pepe's goal. The ball is played to Nihat. Its a simple ball to control. He cant do it and lets it run away from him. Pepe takes it, plays it off and tears up to the pitch.Where is Nihat when Pepe surges up the pitch and takes the return pass from Gomes?He should be chasing back with the centre half. It was a very good goal but still.

Yea Tuncay was shit as well but he was out of position. And Aurelio was good i agree. Altintop was poor in this game. He was ok going forward but his defending was poor.He rushed into tackles too many times and his positioning was poor. where do Bayern Munich play him?I dont think he plays at right back for them anyway.I expected better from him. He was taken off with 15 minutes left like.

Midfield, right.

Altintopp shouldn't be used as back, though. It's stupid. Although to be honest I have no clue who else the Turks have for the position.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Pepe reminds me of Lucio.

 

[Sebastian]

Now that you mention it, yeah. Although i think Pepe is technicially superior.

 

[Sebastian]

Ok, tent is build up in the backyard, uncles are there, now the game can start.

There's more Croatians in the stands than Austrians anyways.

Holy hell... The fans....

 

[Flipmo]

Leading 1 nil... but we're being complacent..

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Austria have done pretty well..

 

[Flipmo]

Yeah, they have.

We'll regroup by the 2nd half and score another. Quite the physical match it has been

 

[hizzle?]

Fuck we miss Eduardo so bad...

 

[Sebastian]

^
We? Did you say we? OMG

 

[Bobby Sands]

Fuck we miss Eduardo so bad...

Bosnia didnt qualify and they dont have a player called Eduardo


Croatia have been very poor.very bad match. Austria could get something from this.
