Going and watch Pato in an hour for Poland-Brazil. I'll tell you guys how it went.

Forza Canada!

Gonna watch it on TV. Hopefully Inter still keeping an eye on Alexandre Pato.

Brasil sucks. What a shitty game they played. Pato's an ok player, missed too many oppurtunities all he has from what I saw is some skill. Not an intelligent player and doesn't pass the ball often enough.

lol I just posted about this in the NUN thread. Good to hear you went bro. Hopefully I'll catch next weekend's games. Japan, Scotland, Nigeria and Scotland..... wonder if I'll see any Inter scouts? :D

I was hoping Obi Mikel from Chelsea would be on the Nigeria squad, but it doesn't look like it.

Obi Mikel is suspended from Nigeria for putting Chelsea over them. Club VS Country type thing.

Pato is a great player and you can tell he's a man amongst boys out there, but Brazil is really shit. He missed a sitter, too. But he's usually a good finisher.

Canada plays Austria tonight. Hopefully they put in a better showing than they did against Chile. That was brutal and one of the lamest performances I've ever seen from a team.

Really sorry for Canada....I was rooting for them. :(

Now I have to hope for Chile not letting things go and Kongo beating Canada, in order for Chile and Kongo to advance, but it shouldn't happen...

Mehdi, your man Dos Santos seems to be doing well. I think it would bad news for Barca if Mexico won the U-20 WC, then his theory of being able to win the WC will even seem more true to him :p

hahahahhahaaa!!!

Yes..Giovani does really well...and he is so far probably one of the best players of the tournament. Apparently he is set to join the senior team next season.

If Mexico really win it, the people will go mad there...it will be unbearable with him. ;)

but good for him...if he manages to stay on the ground too, it would be great.

United States doing well. I'm really rooting for Adu and Altidore (who is from my country, Haiti... freaking awesome CF he is, only 17 yrs old and he's already a giant talent).

Pato is incredibly skilled, but Brazil is a very crappy team in this tournament. Hopefully we can watch a Mexico-USA final.

Gio dos Santos is a monster.... and I also rate Vela very highly, after all, the genius Wenger signed him didn't he? ;)

I just saw the highlights of the Brazil-USA game and it looked like a great game but i am really impressed by the Americans.

From US team, I really like that black leftback(Lawrence???) and the right winger...Sal Zezzo or something. Those two were my type of players.

I generally hate on US football teams as much as I can, but I can't really hate on them, as they play real good football.

No, it's just that the Brazilian team wasn't pushing as much as they should have. And of course the US took advantage of that.

This Argentinian NT is really a disgrace, they won the cup thanks to some diving and playacting. Canada organized this tournament to encourage soccer, but most people kept on saying how disgusting diving and acting in soccer is.
