Yeah thought Coentrao (Portugal) and Salcido of Mexico have been the standout LBs for me, duno how theyve came up with Heinze. Probs just because he bagged a goal in their opening game.

No Lucio (an absolute machine) or Ramos either?

Very excited about this afternoon's match.

Holland obv are the underdogs, no doubt about it, but we could sneak a win here 20% of the time (within 90 minutes) I think. Obv I can't back Holland to win outright as 10-3 (7-2 ina  place) is too short for me and can't bring myself to back Brazil outright either as I could very well jinx it.

Just had a few small bets on for value though.

Brazil 3-1 @20s
1-1 @ 6.3 - 1 (my bigger bet)
Holland 2-1 @ 16-1

Some small scorecasts
Robben 1-0 @35-1
Robben 2-1 @80-1
Sneijder 2-1 @95-1
Robben anytime and Brazil 3-1 @70-1

He's 12/1 at Bellagio.

It' a stupid book with Fabiano at 4/1, Klose at 8/1. Van Persie 8/1 etc.

They are betting to about 300% but I nearly had to back Villa at 12's.
[/quot
 According to my model he is not priced correctly for the games but on the basis he will score 33% of their goals  and they would be an average of 0.1 goal faves in the final where goals expectancy would be 2.30 (that might be a bit high) then he is 11/2 on average to score first in a final he appears in.  They are 5/4 to reach the final (midpoint on BF) so 6.5*2.25=14.65.  I would argue they should be a bit shorter than 5/4 and Villa potentially should be in for a bit more than that especially against some fo the better defences so if you like Spain in general, as I know you do, then it isn't the worst way to bet them.  LOL at Van Persies and Kloses price.  They are nearly that price to win the tourney and the two are massively correlated.  American sportsbook odds compilers are notoriously horrible....I know I used to be one!!!!

Why the F are Japanese officials in charge of this match? No foul for a challenge from behind on Robben and a late, late flag for offside.

How can a ref be top-class when they don't referee topclass footie every week?

Who spiked Robben's water? Two times he had a chance to shoot in one and twice he didn't take it...very unlike him.

Brazil MUCH the better side ATM Sad
