Is the Eurocup overrated?

[Ronni]

WC-Champions are Brazil - Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo and whatever
EC-Champions are Greece - Zagorakis, Dellas and whatever

each one takes his conclusions about which championship presents more.

[Panathinaikos2]

No the Euro is ten times better than the world cup in my oppinion.

[Panathinaikos2]

are you kidding?? Since when whas the Euro outshined the WC??? in the Americas nobody cares shit about the Euro.
The only thing missing from the Copa América is England, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and maybe Germany. those five teams out of the 24 that usually play in a Euro are the only ones that would cause Brazil and Argentina any trouble.

Hahaha! You wish you can have nations of that level.

[chuncho_azul]

I'd rather watch the euro than have to deal with teams like Angola, Cote d'Ivoire, Togo, Ghana, Tunisia, SAudi Arabia, Korea, Ecuador, I mean... wtf

who said you have to watch them play?

dont underestimate the beauty of the WC.

Major event

Overrated?? I think not.

If you think the Euro is overrated then why is your avatar a Liverpool symbol???

I support the USA national team just like i support the Greek national team but please dont tell me that USA can compete in the Euro. Only Brazil and Argentina can win a Euro amongst the non-euro teams.

And what do Americans know about soccer???

thanks for all that information dude, but all it shows is that the Euro is a great tournament, just like any other major sports event that has the media wanting to buy the rights. but sometimes Europeans think that it's the greatest shit on earth, and really put down the World Cup. but out of the two WC's i've seen compared to the two Euros I've seen, the Euro is always the more boring one...

I said the Euro is overrated. I didnt say that European clubs were...

I support the USA national team just like i support the Greek national team but please dont tell me that USA can compete in the Euro. Only Brazil and Argentina can win a Euro amongst the non-euro teams.

And what do Americans know about soccer???

If a team like Greece can win the Euro, why wouldnt the US or any other somewhat decent non-euro team be able to??

[Am I Evil?]

If there is something overrated it is Grease and USA..you both suck but USA sucks even more actually.

I hope USA ends in the same group as Iran so that they beat you like they did in the past. hahaha

It will be an excellent propaganda victory for IRAN haha hahahaha.

Go IRAN GO IRAN WOOOOOO!!!!!

HAHAHA what a stupid question, it is because even tho Greece is a lousy team, they are hundred times better than USA. hahaha

[Panathinaikos2]

It's becuase Greece had perfect defence and had a plan to eliminate other powers defence. By the way Anti Fenerbach if we are a lousy team then what about Turkey? When Greece and Turkey play now a days it's usualy a tie.

[Am I Evil?]

Ok you are not lousy but honestly I think we are better than you right now. The reason there is a tie when we play is because you have very good defence, but you are not as good as us offensively. We have played you 8 times so far, we won 4 times, you won 2 times and 2 times it was tie. And dont forget that we made it to the playoffs, not you.
Also, we have a HUGE pool of new talents, we are really hungy after what happened with Switzerland. You'll see man Turkish football will SHINE AND SPARKLE in a few years.

If it wasn't for the USA, Turkey would be pissed upon, would have a ZERO military technology, you'd be firing kebabs off camels. Where do you think you got all those F-16's and patriot missiles among other mass amounts of US military equipment? You think made guys made them? If it wasn't for the USA, you wouldn't be even considered for entry talks into the EU. If it wasn't for the USA your GDP would be even more pathetic than it is now. If it wasn't for the USA, your country would have been attacked when you invaded cyprus. Without the USA, Turkey wouldn't be in NATO. Be very careful who you criticize, because without the USA, turkey would be nothing. You owe ALOT to the USA.

:

If Greece sucks, who is the current Euro champ, then what does that make Turkey, who has never won anything, Mr. Turk Jerk??? And why put down USA, a country that always backs Turkey in any political situation and who gives 26 billion dollars in aid to, which is more than any country except Israel.

BTW, the Swiss cooked your feathers...

And can that not be said about Italy and Europe too??
Without the USA or Russia or blabla this or that nation would be blablabla. Hypothetical crap!
Without the USA you would all be talking Russian now hahaha
Or without Russia you would all be talking German now hahaha.
Without the Russians you would all be speaking Turkish now. lol

Anyway, all countries owe a lot to all countries. Nations are mutually dependent on eachother..alliance and that stuff. No one, certainly not the US, would by Turkish "ally" if we didnt offer them something back. It is not just take take but give and take.

Do you know anything about the Turkish Armed Forces? We have patent on the f-16's, we manufacture and maintain them ourselves, has nothing to do with USA. Most of our other weapons are manufactured in Turkey, companies like ASELSAN are arms exporters. It is nations like Italy and Greece and actually much of Europe who would be nothing without USA..bunch of olive oil is all you got.

When we toke Cyprus we would be attacked by whom? Greece? lol

BTW, stop turning every discussion into politics, I was talking about football until you showed up.

You're just upset because Turkey is out and you need a country to pick on. Greece is still champs, thats a fact. Turkey Euro 2008 champs-- only your opinion...just a complex out of Greece being champs...
