it's the lukas podolski show again

yes, it might be san marinos, but you have to admit, germany showed the right attitude.

against weak teams, playing at a so-called lower level, you should aim for perfection.

if you play against people of a higher level, no doubt it tests your ability.

but it doesnt mean that it's a waste of time if you play against people of a lower level. here, you set higher standards. you aim for perfection. like not losing any ball, scoring many goals, there are so many ways to increase the level.

and i think germany has done it.

13-0. podolski with 4.

if you can't do it against them, you are never ever going to do it against stronger teams.

and of course, we register a perfect response to that dismal 1-0 win over luxembourg. 3-0 against hleb's belarus. van persie with 2.

much much better.

interesting lineup. de jong in centre mid with sneijder and landzaat. actually, i think landzaat should be out. he's like van bommel. not very useful. wait, he's worse than van bommel, because van bommel can still score sometimes. they should put in stijn schaars earlier. and he started with kuyt, van persie and huntelaar, considering tt robben is still out.

if babel can become thierry henry quickly, then we have another option. but until then, i guess it's kuyt filling in for robben.

but i still think that heitinga should play in central defence. let de jong play at right back. then geo at leftback, and ooijer, mathijsen and khalid fight it out for the last place in defence.

den u can have stijn schaars, sneijder and vdv in centre mid. with maduro on the bench. but i noe that van basten will nv play maduro and heitinga together in central defence. he would tink it too inexperienced. which is quite true. but in the future, dun rule out this possibility.

anyway, singapore tv is freaking lousy. i switched on for the news, hopign to see some stuff fr germany's game or holland's game or france's game, and all i get is england v macedonia.

this is really england country.

United Against England!

oh btw, france beat italy 3-1. sweet, sweet revenge.

and spain were slayed by north ireland. david v goliath indeed. la noche triste. a night of sorrow. if spain had won, it would have been perfect.

so, the euro qualifiers will take a break.

sometimes you do miss international games. international games have a special atmosphere club football doesnt have. which is like duh right.

so we shall meet again on 7 october.
holland goes to bulgaria, spain to sweden.

den 11october,
holland hosting albania, germany visiting slovakia.
