2013 European Championship - Germany and Switzerland

  • Belgium is the perfect example for how important it is to have good organisation and preparation. They have always had good players and for some years good results on youth level, but this year for the first time they spent the whole summer together, playing EL and preparing for ECH and thus they have become a real TEAM! Qualifying for WGP next year also secures that it will be a long term development.
    This is something that for example Croatia lacks, their federation always screws up and every year there is the question who will be coach, which players will come etc, and often they don't have good conditions for preparations. With better organisation, Croatia could constantly be Top 5 in Europe.


    It's really fun to watch Belgium, a young and enthusiastic team! Road to semifinal is really not hard for them now :white:

  • Congrata Belgium! Definetly deserved it today!


    The other side of this semifinal will be really interesting! Italy x Poland and than who wins face Serbia! It will be hard fight for the Semi!

  • Italians are even worse than I've imagined. And I already thought they were bad((

  • dude where did u learn your history seriously first of all bre is the word only used by serbs that word is the most annoying word to croats and so called bosniaks if u had any idea u wouldnt write such nonsense second there werent any bosniaks or turkish people in balcans what so ever before u conquared and starting killing people in order for them to change their faith what u are trying to do is falsefy history but with u turks it is nothing new next thing u know u will be saying byzantine empire was turskih empire as well :down:


    What is wrong with you? I feel a nationalistic vibe. :lol:

  • I don't see what Mencarelli can change for the match vs Poland
    Of course he can put Camera for Signorile. But it won't be enough !
    No we just can hope that today players will be all in a great day ; if not, it will be time to pack the luggage.

  • muahaha nationlist? for saying the truth and not letting u falsfy history ? dude seriously if anyone is nationlstic it is u turks it isn t serbian offical saying they want to have turkish lands but your politicans saying that they want to make neo ottoman like empire

  • matthias it is that u have to understand the history of the balcans and serbs and other slavs in that area what turks were trying for hundreds of years was to change peoples faith in that area by palling them on spikes and other horrific stuff but i dont hate them cause of it i just mind when someone lies and they lie big time that is one of the reasons why there will allways be issues in the balcans

  • END OF :offtopic: NOW!


    If Germany gets to semifinal, they'll meet Belgium there again :white: The teams have met so many times this summer...but first, quarterfinal. Will be hard enough!


    Actually Germany faces Russia or Turkey..


    Belgium faces Serbia...
    Pool A and C/ Pool B and D.

  • Do we really need political caricatures here ?
    "the Turkishs ", "the Frenchs", "the Americans" "the Serbians", ...
    Why putting all people in the same category ? ...
    Many protesters and different ways of thinking in Turkey, France, Serbia, and so on

  • thx for that table matthias u made things much easier

  • Volleyball.it is much quicker than NT players :thumbsup:
