Bosnia v Portugal 2 EST ESPN Deportes/ ESPN3
Turkey v Croatia 2;05 EST ESPN3
Czech Republic v Montenegro 2:15 EST ESPN3
Estonia v Ireland 2:45 EST ESPN3

Looking forward to the Montenegro match (though I'll have to see it later on replay):

Montenegro has a surprising number of serious players for such a tiny country: Vucinic, Savic and a brilliant young attacking talent in Stevan Jovetic, who I'm surprised to not hear mentioned more often as a rising star.

I'm interested to see if Pjanic plays. He's supposedly a bit questionable with a minor leg injury and has been held out of the NT practices leading up to today but I imagine he'll be in the lineup anyway.

He's really coming on at Roma. When Enrique drops him deeper in the midfield he seems to be more in his element than the experiments with him leading the attacking trident. He has such a brilliant eye for killer entry passes when following the attack. Believe he's tied with Aquilani for the lead in assists in Serie A already.

Love this guy...Rafa wanted to buy him 2 summers ago but H&G wouldnt release the funds.

Im guessing a lot of the talk died when he spent the whole past year rehabbing his knee...

He just reupped with Fiorentina, so I guess that killed the transfer talk...

I didn't know that. He's really come on like crazy since coming back from injury. Rafa seemingly knew exactly what he was doing in this case.

Well, he scored twice against us in the Champions League, so he had a good look at his skills...

I'm guessing he's come back full strength? His skills are undeniable

Like the Six Million Dollar Man. He's been an absolute terror for Fiorentina's opposition so far.

Volkan
Gokhan-Egemen-Giray-Hakan Balta
Selcuk Inan-Emre
Sabri-Hamit-Arda
Burak


I guess that will be the rotation for Turkey. Giray is 26 and has never played for the national team before. Egemen is 29 and has played 5 times. Are you fricking kidding me, Guus?

At times, I wonder if Hiddink just wants to lose and get the job over with How Mehmet Topal is on the bench while Sabri plays, and guys like Topuz, Tuncay, Nuri Sahin, Aurelio, and Semih are left at home. Are you kidding me?

I was waiting for your take on that line-up. Not surpised by your reaction.

GOAL AGAIN FOR CROATIA! Mandzukic. 2-0


Looks like they're through.


And the Turkish fans aren't real happy.
