When I say skill, I`m talking about technical ability and not tactical ability here. Germany beat Argentina because their tactics were spot on and they took their chances when they arrived and played to their strengths. Germany are a very good tactical team but not so great on technical ability, exception to the rule being Ozil of course.

I don't know about that, they were very good going forward at this world cup. In fact they were one of my favourite teams to watch. Traditionally the Germans aren't a great team to watch but I don't think you can say the same this year.

Germany this year played how they always play, effective football and two good strikers that can score goals...........its not always pretty but its results that count.

Yeah because Britain were the ONLY country to claim land everyone was doing, we were just good at it. Hence the empire..

Getting bombed is a tad different. I don't think any Brit can fully support Germany because of that. Even though it's history and there's no hate towards their country or their people.. well, I can only speak for myself. But yeah, supporting a team that's bombed you twice or a great team like Spain, where I've had lots of great holidays, it's always going to be Spain.

I just don't like Germany? What can I say?

Spain is my favourite country apart from England, and I really want to go to Holland. So that final suits me a lot more than possibly seeing Germans lifting the cup.
