re: Why on earth did Jogi Löw start Podolski?

Also, if anyone remembers, I was never one of the people who thought Germany would blow out Italy. I hoped they would win but I thought it would be very close and could go either way.


I don't think I tried to offend Italy at all. In fact, I think that I'm complimenting them by saying they didn't do anything out of the ordinary. They're usually very good and it's because they're tactically strong and play their roles well.

If I'm talking shite about anyone, it's Jogi Loew and the Germans for not playing to their full potential.
