Originally from Weymouth that octopus. Shocking loss for the country letting him go to Germany.

Germany were lucky they came up against one of the most ignorant managers at the world cup. Saying that, it seems the majority of the managers at this world cup have made glaringly obvious mistakes, mistakes that were predictable without hindsight.

Definitely want Holland to win the final. I'd have been torn if it Germany-Holland in the final, but I definitely want Holland to beat the Spanish.

If he picks the same side he did tonight, Holland will passed off the park, IMO.

I am genuinely not bothered who wins.
However....I would feel very sorry for Holland getting there 3 times and losing 3 times.
Plus there is a little devil in me that wants Spain to carry on with their underachieving.
Nah, it should be good whoever wins, now the usual suspects are out.
