O/T Olympic Football 2012

Enough to actually judge him? How much do you think?

How much do you need to see a player to actually judge him though? One end of the scale is watching a few youtube clips, the other is filing a comprehensive scouting report, following the player from match to match and watching his off the ball movements and awareness throughout the 90 minutes.

You're the one who seemingly has problems with people saying that Damiao would be a good transfer target on the basis that they haven't seen him much, so surely you've got a subjective checklist in terms of minutes watched before it's ok to declare he'd be a good signing right?

Edit: I should point out I'm not deliberatly trying to wind you up or anything, I'm actually curious as to how much you believe to need to see a player play etc etc

Sandro is simply brilliant. I love that he and Disco Benny are Spurs players. Absolutely fantastic characters.
 
Saw a cavalcade of Brazilian support cars whizzing around London today; about 8 cars, mostly those bricky buses but also a nice beemer - think it was a new 6. Had people in it, dunno if it was their footie team.
 
Nobody watching Spain Japan?


Japan 1-0 Up and Spain are down to 10 men.


That said japan should have had two or three.
 
Wow, at the end Japan missed several more sitters. If the Spanish had got an equaliser the Japanese would have been distraught.
 
Spain were horrific. At the end they were lumping it to the big man! Yoshida the captain was my pick, decent CB and captain.
 
i think i've found my darkhorse team for this olympics. UAE playing some great stuff. And one of their guys just kicked Suarez. A stand-up team really.
