Muller "I couldn't roll it to Özil for a tap in" 6, hmm. Need someone to get Özil to take that invisibility cloak off when contributing, I soooooo wanted him to score last night to shut them up.Quote:

This side has more flair, more creativity than any previous Germany team and without doubt they were the best team in the tournament without being just efficient.
To win in South America, to beat the two biggest sides in South America whilst doing it....I think this German side will go down in history as a very special one, eclipsing maybe even the Spanish four years ago.

Argentina missed about 3 or 4 really good chances and should have punished the German's high line. However, Germany were the best team in the tournament and deserve their world cup.
Pleased for the 3 Gooners and hope they bring the positive vibe back to the club. Messi didnt look bothered at times and walked around the pitch looking lost. Should have taken what looks like his last world cup (he'll be 31 in Russia).
Is that the least happiest person holding a world cup you've ever seen?

Yes but Messi's game is about quick bursts of pace and already at 27 he isnt what he was at 22 when he demolished us.Quote:

Frankly the comparisons to Pele were ludicrous anyway, there's a guy who is synonymous with the World Cup and delivering at the pinnacle. Maradona, obviously a genius technically (like Messi) but lots of question marks and baggage there too. Zidane ranks higher than Messi and Ronaldo in my opinion. He's the one who should be spoken of as a challenger to the title of greatest ever, although it's hard to see how Pele will ever be surpassed in terms of achievement.
You are forgetting about ROONEY!!!!!!! He scored a goal!
