As Tom said, I would rather play any of the other three teams in Germany's group. Germany are a great team so I'd rather meet an easier opponent.

Be careful what you wish for - sometimes so called easier opponents end up being the toughest!

Found that out already this last 10 days with our dire results thanks to very poor play against the USA and Algeria.

When you live in Germany or any of the other great soccer nations you can't really escape it, even if you wanted to. The last one was 2006 here in Germany and the one before 2002 in South Korea/Japan.

I understand that...sort of like how I can't avoid hearing about Ohio State Football in the fall.
