the Ego has Landed ...
It should make for an interesting season. Certainly a better one than under the unfortunate Moyes.
I'm looking forward to it.

Germany ...... Finally !!
Following the German national team has been a frustrating experience for the past few years. There has been talk of a golden generation but after repeated failures to breach the Spanish tiki-taka, many were beginning to wonder whether this particular batch had the mental fortitude to win a major trophy. Well, the Spanish in this World Cup were van Gaaled and never recovered, and Joachim Loew switched and rediscovered his winning formation in the quarterfinal against France. And then this German team made history.
So, wonder no more. This batch HAS the team spirit and mentality to win a World Cup. And they're young enough to be favourites for the next European Championships and World Cup. Talk of a golden generation has been justified. I'll just chuck in a few photos to mark the occasion.

Didn't matter where the goalkeeper was. Gotze was always going for the far post.
Having said that, the technique was perfect.
How many Germans can you fit into a Mini ?
given Brazil's construction problems for this World Cup,
I kinda wondered whether the stage would collapse
Manuel Neuer : the latest in a long line of world class German goalkeepers
They say Germany's 12th man is a woman.
It's been a long journey. Lahm and Scgweinsteiger have graduated
from young guns to mainstays and elder statesmen.
Both were outstanding in the final against Argentina.
