Can you tell us any of what is being said during this 'informal' 8:00' video from Argentina during the STP Argentina dates?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9KQPmcmgXc Sat 31-Mar-01

Probably the most knowledgeable DS/MK fan "in the world" (in a Jeremy Clarkson voice  ;D).  Wish he was still posting here, but he will be reading this!  :wave

I don't speak Spanish but does MK? Maybe he does but I think the interchange was in English, since I can pick out odd snippets of English from the babble of conversations going on. Maybe someone here has the equipment to depress the babble of sound and bring out MK's conversation. Just my opinion!

A Wiki site in Spanish says that Mar

tiki-taka is a football tactic system. In saying tiki-taka my ass I never thought someone would take it personal. After all I didn't say Spain my ass or something like that.  and even after 0:4 they sstill were tiki-takaing..... so much for the ass.

And I drink no beer, sorry. But the rest is fine with me, although I am 194 cm tall, so you might have to jump...       ;D

So you are back, plan worked out fine!  :thumbsup

LE, not personal at all, it just sounded funny, if kick your ass might be painful, imaging tiki-taka your ass...

 :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Not beer? I'm not a hard drinker, but wine is also ok with me  ;D

ok then, let's hope MK is proceeding his work, so London would be a good place to meet! I know the RAH is on your agenda every time so far...
Looking forward very much to that I must say! Exactly one year ago there were all these fine July outdoor shows... I listen a lot to them these days...

wayaman, it is just about the great opportunity to meet a lot of fans from all over the world at the RAH - one of the greatest thing being MK fan. Have you been there, too? Or maybe turn up there next time and we can meet, too! And by the way I don't want to get you under the impression that the tiki taka thing was the reason for jbaents forum leave - it had nothing to do with it and was a recent facebook thing..

I've been at the RAH, a nice place, truly.

I got that the tiki-taka was a joke between the two of you, no matter from where it comes, but its clearly a joke. Actually Ingridswing also referred to it as a joke  :lol

I said Argentina to win before it started so I've got to go with them now!  And it's personal now because my Dad jumped ship half way through after agreeing with me fancies Holland now after going with Germany on and off too!  ::)

RAH is a great place to meet amiters, I've met Pottel, Goldenheart, LE, Dutchessy, Millionaire Blues, Tunnel85, Marijn, Maon on a track, IrishRose and many others that I cant remember now, and it was very nice, even with some it was very briefly.

LE, nice match by Germany, thats Tiki-take made like the way its meant to be, in a useful way, if it wasnt because I truly thinks that Holland deserves it, after losing three World Cup Finals, I'll go with Germany, that in my opinion, deserved by his good football to win something with this great team, but was unlucky to coincide with the best Spain team in the recent past.

However, Holland has to win today first, if they dont, germany will be my time for sure!

Ps/ i also met Dmg and Dusty in Glasgow, and Ingrid in Newcastle, nice places as well!

There are some players in the German team like Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Klose, Mertesacker, Podolski, who are in the team since 2006 - two times good playing (2006 and very good playing 2010), two times semi-finals - now it seems this "golden generation of German football" really deserves a title. Same with Joachim Low - it would be a pity if all these players come back home with again nothing in their hands.. So I think it would be fair if we win on Sunday. I am confident because all German players seem to classify the high score of last night right - they all know it has no meaning, and that the next game will have a total different character and meaning. But for the poor Brazilian population, I really feel some pity, because football IS their life, it has a total other dimension there it seems than in any European country.

I read a little joke this morning by the way... "A German meets a Dutch man at the petrol station. The Dutch says "we will play against Argentina tonight" - the German says "What a coincidence!! We will, too, on Sunday!"

And they say the Germans don't have a sense of humour!  ;)

Arsenal are my favourite English team but I really don't rate Mertesacker or Ozil at all.  I think they're rank rotten!

Not off topic at all : Messi needs to be sent back to  Buenos Aires tonight to double check if MK is still there.
