I had the company secretary here in the office choose her 'favourite' from the Germany team - she went with Jogi Löw. Make of that what you will.

Paul is an octopus, not a squid!
I wanted a Holland v. Germany final, so I hope Germany won't disappoint me and send the spaniards home tonight. Too bad Müller isn't playing.

Well yes, Löw is the only remotely cute looking of that lot. Oh, and Cacau (what sort of name is that, anyway? "Hey, I'm black. Just call me something sounding like your word for cocoa.").
Cacau is pretty. Only that he doesn't seem to be sent onto the playing ground, like ever.

He's been injured ever since the Ghana game.
Also, how can you not like Özil? He'll stare deep into your eyes, all the way into your soul...
Lytha on 7/7/2010 at 14:20
Özil? Sure, less neanderthalian than others of that team, but sorry, I don't find those borderline hyperthyroid eyes attractive at all.
Now that you mention Ghana, I'm all sad again that they are out. :(

Cacau is Brazilian, although he's been in Germany for 10 years, and 'Cacau' is the Portuguese word for 'cocoa'. So I'm pretty sure that he must have gotten that nickname while still in Brazil.

Go Spain :)
They really need to score in the second half. And they played so well in the first half.

I've got a fiver riding on Spain with a part-German traitor friend of mine who switched sides as soon as England went out.
