Dhagax-Tuur Posted November 12, 2009 EnGLand (emphasis on the G) who? According to Russell Peters that should get them angry. With Capello's regime, maybe that would go up to Q/F? Maybe. But, do they have the strength and depth (as A. Hansen would say)? I doubt that. The Dutch and the Germans are a force to reckon with in SA. There would probably be other wild cards that would emerge from the tournament as it progresses. Who would I support? Any underdog that punches beyond his reach...Mostly likely an African.

Resistance Posted November 12, 2009 Who u support will depend where in London u from. I will have to support Algeria since Blackstock Road/FB is just round the corner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dhagax-Tuur Posted November 12, 2009 ^Good luck with the noise. They're louder than Maryooley. But they're not a bad bunch to be with. They're warm and friendly and most of all very brotherly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peasant Posted November 12, 2009 How come no one mentioned the samba boys who are known to snatch the trophy if the tournament is held outside europe? Plus the african weather is in their favor and not mention some of their talented cousins are also going to be in the tournament like Argentineans, chileans and etc. I think this cup goes to south america and probably brazil will take it.

NGONGE Posted November 12, 2009 Originally posted by Car-Garo: The Egyptian team is weak compared to the Algerians, Algeria can beat them any day. If I were a betting man I would dare you to a wager, saaxib. The Egyptian team is the best in Africa, adeer. They won the last two African cups and, I believe, they will trounce Algeria on Saturday (remember, they are playing at home). As for being weak! A team that has Al Hadari in goal? Wael Gomca in defence? Sheikh Abu Trika in midfield? Zidan and Camr Zaki in attack? A team that has captain fantastic himself (Ahmed Hassan)? p.s. They got a visit from the laughing cow today. He told them to do their best (which means those boys will be playing out of their skins). I predict that Egypt will qualify and not just qualify but be the best african team in the world cup. As El Comda says: gatkom neela, maleeto el balad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Som@li Posted November 12, 2009 the pharaohs don't have a chance, Three players hurt in attack on Algeria team bus Three players from Algeria's national football team were slightly hurt on Thursday when youths stoned their bus as they arrived in Cairo for a World Cup qualifier against Egypt, Algerian state radio reported. Earlier Algerian sports minister Hachemi Djiar said some of the players had been hospitalised before Saturday's match. However, state radio reported later that the three players had not been seriously injured. A reporter for state radio said that about 200 young people appeared just as the team's bus pulled into their hotel, and launched a hail of stones at the vehicle. "It was a very regrettable incident," said Djiar, who is minister for youth and Sport. "On the way from the airport the bus was attacked by a group of youths who were throwing stones," he told Algerian radio by telephone from the Egyptian capital Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sherban Shabeel Posted November 13, 2009 May I just remind everyone that on June 7th Algeria beat Egypt 3-1, and that Algeria is leading the group by 3 points? Unless the Pharaohs can do a 3-0, they're going down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N.O.R.F Posted November 13, 2009 Ngonge Egypt are out saxib. Support another Arab team . Sherban, I'm with Algeria to qualify. They will be my No. 2 team at the WC. Ghana and Ivory Coast will get to quarters before they lose to a European team. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
