Where to start...
I agree with the point that the German league has too many foreigners. The likes of Makaay, Lucio, Micoud etc. are good for the league because they are worldclass players. When I watch a game I think "hey, why can't team x just play some young German player instead of that crap foreigner?"
But it happens in every European league. The young hometown talents just don't make it to the first team.
In my opinion things have gotten better since the Euro 2000. More and more team started to think differently. Bayern usually has about 50% German players in its starting team, Schweinsteiger made it from the amateurs. Stuttgart's key players are German - Hildebrand, Lahm, Hinkel, Kuranyi.
Klinsmann put up the youngest German team ever in a friendly game some months ago with Ballack being the oldest field player. Hinkel on the right, Lahm on the left, Huth and Mertesacker as CBs.
Except for Brazil and Argentina no team is clearly better than the German one. We're not that good at the moment but we made it to the WC final, England or Holland haven't been there since decades.
Please, you're exaggerating just a bit here.
Kuranyi is only 22 and already a good striker. He's proving in in Stuttgart week in week out. His father (if I remember correctly) is German so there's nothing wrong with him.
Seriously, I wouldn't give a sh*t about those rankings.
That's the point. How are the young player supposed to get better if they don't get any playing time?
Only the result matters. Who cares about the way a team plays, I don't as long as its wins the freaking games.
Stealing? It's their decision,
Kuranyi is half Brazilian, half German. The others have been living in Germany for almost their whole lifes.

you are quite wrong on some stuff.. like Kuranyi being good.. He's afraid to hit the ball with his head (literally)- I've watched plenty of games, he's lame, that's why he can't play in Brazil.
On the counter, yes.Originally posted by trUnKez
Besides, Germany wasn't always a defending state. If you are a fan of classic games like myself, you will see constant attacks by West Germany.

Like I said before, he has yet to show his skills in the national team but he's a good striker. You should watch some Stuttgart games.Originally posted by trUnKez

Did worldcup.com tell you this or are you just pulling this out of your ass?Originally posted by trUnKez
Holland? Eh... They suck bigger ass than Poland. All they had is one player throughout history and with him gone there is nothing the Netherlands can look forward to.. not even Van Nistelrooy .
I have watched them equally with Germany in the Euro cup.. and what I saw was a national joke.

I have seen stuttgart games and they are dissapointing. The man is unable to strike with the head - something that is a MUST for the position he holds. Kuranyi is nothing compared to what Germany used to have. Amen.

ok now im a little pissed. would magath, advocaat and toppmoller bring these ****in immigrants to bundesliga if they werent better then the german players? probably not. so stop your whining and accept the fact that german players are good, but they will sit on the bench and watch their "immigrant" teammates play because they are better!

Of course he's no Müller or Klinsmann, he's a very good striker though. He has to work on his headers but that's not a big problem as long as Klose is playing next to him. Klose is one of the best at doing that and currently the second best goal scorer in the Bundesliga.I have seen stuttgart games and they are dissapointing.

It's sad that you believe someone knows nothing about football just because they state their own opinion ... real clever mr dictator. It's also sad that you base Holland's skill on 3 players.
When I refer to Holland playing bad I do not necessarily mean that all the players are bad.. Think before you say something. It's the national team I am referring to. They are processing no results that can be applauded, and you will see what I mean on Wednesday when they are killed by England.
