So how good are Sweden as a footballing nation in the woman's football?

Wow. That really sucks about Sweden. To technically win a game and a critical one at that, but still get knocked out of the tournament in the pre-quaterfinal stage, because of a goal differential. They were in the frickin' final last go around. I do understand that they're not the same team as they were back in '03 - some key veterans have retired and key players playing injured or just barely recovered from some serious injuries.

Schelin rocks. You go, girl.

Not good enough for the quarter finals

They have a good reputation though, and there will be those (Smog, where are you?) that will tell you about how good they are

They are last World Cup runners-up,
they have been the European Championship runners-up too,
and they are ranked 3rd in the world.

Unfortunatelly their huge star Malin Mostrom has retired,
and a few key players, for example world class goalkeeper Caroline Jonsson,
as well as a promissing young forward, Josefine Oqvist
had to stay home due to injuries.
Their current no.1 goalie Hedvig Lindahl and their best forward Hanna Ljungberg
just came back from injuries too and were not fully fit and prepared for this WC.

I disagree with what twmcat said - "Not good enough for the quarter finals".
They are good enough to be the Champions there,
they were just extremelly unlucky recently with all the injuries and everything.
If the World Cup was next year or a year ago,
I'm sure you'd see them in the final again

Sweden are a really talented team suffering with crippling injuries and retirements
all of AS's post above is correct, I don't need to add much

Why does Seger wear an odd pair of boots? eg One is a Green Nike and the other is silver and red
She colour blind or something, coz the boots are the same make

Because...



I have no idea, but she's been wearing them for a while - odd coloured boots I mean, so erm...dunno, comfort maybe?

I bet you've been looking for something to say about Seger?

Someone has stolen one of each pair
and is kissing them at their bedroom every night.

^^ Kelly Smith with her shoe fetish?
EW!

Hey! I didn't say it was her!

No, just think it's a bit cocky really! She can't be noticed because of the way she plays she can only be noticed because of her boots

Haha, yea yea

AS you meant her, who else in this world is freaky enough to kiss dirty boots - other than Smith (oh and Carney! Ew!)

And yeah maybe I meant Carney!
Cos kissing your own shoes I can understand but someone else's??

AS you have to say something nice about Seger here or else I'll drop you in it later

Something nice about Seger: she's Swedish

And here's one of my favourite photos of the 2007 WWC:

So not good enough!

Karro got a few knocks in that match, as a defender I expect nothing less
Marklund was everywhere that match espc at the end!!! So was Terre and Seger!!

You're so hard to please

Am waiting....

You go say something nice about Kelly Smith in her thread first
- I wrote something nice about Seger ^^

Aww, bless...



Oopsies!



Look away now.

If this is all you've got for me then I'm very disappointed

You've posted nothing I haven't seen before

And it was I who was very critical of Sweden's bland and not upto standard performance

I'm only getting started, I know the wounds are still open and it's better to sprinkle a little salt on 'em at first to make you have a gradual melt down

hmm ok

Well whilst I'm waiting I'll stick more and more pins into this little doll that looks strangely like that idol of yours, where first where first, hmm lets start with the legs - the weakest
