Euro 2012 finals draw pots

Crikey, France have got an easy group.

Nice to have avoided Germany, my loyalties can stay unconflicted for at least the group stage.

Denmark

Quite brilliant. Don't know if we have had this - Irish fan without a ticket sneaked into the ground and dressed in an Estonian tracksuit he found, managed to watch 15 minutes of the game sat on the Estonia bench next to the manager.

Top jibbing

He's got 8 goals in 10 international games this year, and 4 goals in 9 games for LA Galaxy, helping them to an MLS Cup win, but apart from that, yes, you are totally right.

[cmonurz]

Sorry you were wrong m8.

[Ian Royal]

Tell me how a handful of goals against footballing midgets and in the backyard banana league that is the MLS proves he is still at his top level?

good strawmanning.

^This.

Ideal, you said Keane 'is completely past it', which I refuted. Now you are asking me to prove he remains a striker at 'the top level', which is not something I ever claimed.

[Ian Royal]

Well, in your opinion, is he past his best or do you intend to continue to disagree??

I see the climb down is coming on nicely. "completely past it", to "is he still at his top level?" to "is he past his best"

I agree he is past his best, but that wasn't your original statement. You said he is 'completely past it', which I disagree with.

[cmonurz]

I disagree that Keane is completely past it. I'm not trolling, 'completely past it' and 'past his best' are two different things. Grow up, ffs, you weren't clear, now you've clarified. Thanks.

[Platypuss]

Well, you don't have to take everything so literally do you? Or are you really just trolling? You knew what I meant from the get go, don't pretend to be dumber than you are.
The guy has about 1/10th of his pace left, for anything other than MLS, league one, or games against Macedonia, the guy is completely past it.

All I'm seeing is
