Hoho, wait a minute. As a striker, you need to score. Nobody does it better than Toni (in Germany). Klose is not the best when it comes to scoring itself, but he makes a lot of assists and works more than any other striker in the defense.

And the best German player is obviously Ballack. Thats not even a question.
Toni scores just because of his position. I think any other above average stiker could keep the same level. Also Podolski scores a lot.

Ballack is overrated. Everytime I watch him play I see him run a lot but nothing comes out of it.

Seb, why isnt Klose scoring as much as I thought he would at Bayern?
Really hard to say. The last two years he was only good at the first half of the season. Then, somehow, he couldnt manage to keep it on this level. For example: This year he made like 9 goals in the first 10 games. And by the end of the season, he only scored one or two more goals. He wasnt even injured. So i dont know why to be honest. Hes missing the "egoistical gene" sometimes.

Then you are wrong.

Ballack is overrated. Everytime I watch him play I see him run a lot but nothing comes out of it.
Again, wrong. For example: Do you know how many goals he has scored in the national team by now? 36 in 83 games. Compare it to Kloses 39 goals in 77 games.

Yeah I don't say that he's bad but everytime I watch him play (which doesn't occur often) I don't see him playing THAT well. He's overhyped in my opinion. I also remember him from earlier Bayern Munchen days when I really disliked him (I won't lie, I used to be a huge Bayern fan)

I also don't say that Toni is bad, he's a good striker but by no means better than Podolski. I mean it's a pleasure to watch some players play. In German team's history to me those players were: Scholl, Matthaus, Jurgen Klinsmann and Podolski.

Davy said it best way possible on MSN just after the match..

"He is human after all"

Cech kept them in the race a few times, though. And Cech's fault conceded only 1 goal, the Turks scored three, lol.


Imo its cool the Turks are through, though. I thought they played with more heart and gusto than the Czechs. They have a young team with some quality players. The Turks weren't particulatrly good, however. Their offensive play was too static at times, no one moving in the space.

and lmao @ Volkan. wtf was he thinking?

Croatia will beat them in the quarters.

Thing is, Cech has made those mistakes before. But its always when it doesnt matter I.E Tevez's goal for West Ham against Chelsea. Didnt matter Chelsea won 4-1. and most recently Babels goal for Liverpool againt Chelsea in the Champions League. Oh also he done it againt Arsenal when Gallas scored. He is known to make these mistakes.
