The best player in the German team is Kahn, the goalie.
If your best player is the goalkeeper, you have a massive problem.
Who said that? Kahn was not anywhere near good in his games.
He failed in the national league, in the champions league and in the EC.


Here in Finland, I have done everything I can to blend-in with the Finns, I've changed my hair color, wore differnet clothes, got different

I forgot the name of the guy. It was some sports reporter. I wonder if he even was German, since his English was nearly accentless.

But anyway... He DOES have a point. There's not really much quality in the German team at the moment. They're not BAD, but it's all just average.

As it seems the german trainer Rudi Völler might resign.
There will be a press-conference at 10.30.
So that would be trainer number to "go" after trappatoni.
next 2 on my list: Dick Advocaat and Sven :ochesey: :wink:

I'm not sure about Advocaat... If he manages to get through another round, all might be forgiven.
The Dutch are very tolerant, you know :lol:
