DM: Jeremy Toulalon. Who? Did you see him play? You’re telling me he was on the pitch? Oh…
MC: Tomas Galasek. From a player who has had so much experience in international tournaments, I really expected more from him.
ML: Florent Malouda. Looked about as effective as anger management classes for Wayne Rooney. The whole French team could have been put on this list, but I’m not that cruel. Here’s another one for you Blues.
MR: Cristiano Ronaldo. Everybody knows he played like crap, so I don’t have to say it again. One thing I will say again: I don’t want him at Real Madrid. Yes, there are sensible Madrid fans out there.
FC: Mario Gomes. He had one of the howlers of the tournament, missing (or did he hit the crossbar) against Austria, pretty much booking his reservation on the pinewood.
He didn’t see a start for the rest of the tournament after the group stages. Believed by some to have been kept in an iron cage by Loew as punishment, when he wasn’t expected to be in his substitute’s vest in the dugout.
FC: Luca Toni. No shocks for the worst strike partner of the tournament. Toni missed every chance given to him in the tournament, some difficult touches, others definitely not.
He’s a great player, and scores tons for Bayern Munich.
Not for Italy.
He was shocking.
As Forest Gump says, “and that’s all I’ve got to say about that.”
I hope these suggestions are taken with large grains of salt from all, but at the same time I know many a BR reporter will want to chime in with their two cents, pence, or whatever else you’ve got. Let’s hear it.
