How Come When People Bring Italy 2006...?

Question

It's not ok to say they cheated in 2006 [Not saying they did] and people say "stop living in the past" "move on". But then you say Spain's currently the best team, and people say they HAVEN'T won the WC while Brazil & Italy have more, isn't the WC the past so technically if we were to " stop living in the past" WC wouldn't count, past achievement from both clubs & NT wouldn't be considered now.

Does this make any sense? haha

Answer 1

You are so right. We need to forget that Italy "won" the WC(s). :D

Too much emphasis on history though; when you play against a team you play against the current team, not against history. Otherwise we'd have the same old teams winning the same old titles.  

Answer 2

Italy drew with Spain 0-0 and lost on penalties. Had we got two kicks right then we would be "so much superior than spain???" BS as NO ONE on Answers besides Italians would ever admit it and would claim "they are only penalties, a lottery", etc. If we are inferior we are by only a little bit. But yes I think right now we are.

The point on he cheating Stef, is not that "it's the past", it's that it is dumb and unfounded to claim it. Only stupid people like MJ with peanut for brains and a d**k smaller even, would claim such things by quoting pssible other fixing by other teams. Total non-sequiter yet people agree or laugh in agreement at his dumbass Qs.

Argentina are not cocky. Spain is an awesome team. Italy did not cheat. Until proof, NOT user's dumbass opinions, all those remain FACTS.

Now can we all go out shopping tomorrow, and get a life whilst we are there?

Answer 3

i think theres a difference though. The past is important for any team. Whether their past was good or bad, the past is what influenced their present. When italian fans say "stop living in the past" when someone (MJ) is constantly slaughtering italy with insults and accusations about their world cup win, thats when someone should just give it a rest. Theres nothing wrong with someone bringing the past up, but theres a difference between being obsessive about it (MJ). I personally dont have anything against spain and i dont think theyre any less of a team just cuz they havent won a world cup. Their past is important because they've used it as a means to improve, making their current success even sweeter and i respect them for it. I think when spain fans claim spain is the best team in the world and people bring up the fact that they havent had a very successful past, they might just mean that spain are going to have to continously keep proving themselves in order to earn that title, its not just thrown out there because a team wins one euro championship. The past is important but some people just have to stop being so obsessive about it. (MJ)

Answer 4

I like the Spanish soccer team but I don't think it's true.

I think Italy is the best because they are the current World Cup champions. The ranking should be based on the World Cup results.

Answer 5

exactly..people should stop going into the past to prove there point becouse everyone knows the EPL is in top of the leagues right now.  

Answer 6

isnt any sport based on history, ms stefy?? by now, i thought you would have known at least that much. what have spain to show for their 'amazing' talent in 44 years. just 1 triumph???

2006-2010 ITALIA are WORLD CHAMPIONS until they get KNOCKED OUT!!! what is spain going to enter 2010 WC as?? 1-time euro champions?? i mean, it must feel sad to spanish people their 'stars' have ZERO stars on their jersey.  

Answer 7

Don't worry ... the PEOPLE know the TRUTH!!!!!

:D

Answer 8

I do think it's funny that the Italian team hardly dives and I see the Spanish do it every game. Including in the Euro 2008 yet Italy has that reputation for some reason. However I think Spain were the best team and deserved it. It depends. I don't think Italian fans should bring up the first 3 World Cups because then we could say Uruguay is a better national team than France or Spain in the World Cup. Haha. But 2006 is still recent times and Italy still have the same coach and some of the same players.

I don't say stop living in the past because I do. I still think about Milan winning the Champions League in 2003.

By the way Argentina can be very cocky.

Answer 9

people are always hypocrites and they don't realize it

they will always have their own opinions, some people say italy is the best because they won the world cup, others say spain because they won the euros or brazil because they won copa america and have like a bagillion world cups and some people think portugal is the best because even though they won nothing they did ok - well i dont exactly understand that logic

Answer 10

I never said Spain isn't the best current team.

Answer 11

the World Champion is bigger than anything. the Fifa world ranking tells it all. u should check it.

Answer 12

I was lost right when you mentioned "Spain"....
