Fact!

Sun Jul 01, 2012 9:21 pm

Fact: Spain are World champions, and have won the European championships consecutively.

Fact: No other team in the world and in the history of football has won 3 consecutive major championships.

Fact: This Spanish team are therefore the best ever.

Fact: Their football is not boring - it is magnificent, brilliant and successful.

Fact: If you think it is boring then you are an idiot. It is the reason why football in this country is so bad.

Indeed. When I am inevitably shown to be correct, I quietly bask in glory. I have no need to show it off. Unless it's towards my brother, then it's on.

If you have to prove you've got something, you probably never had it.

It's perfectly consistent to admire Spain's possession game without being excited by it because Spain's possession game isn't always exciting.

See: Spain v Portugal for instance.

What irks those of us who aren't fervent members of the Tika Taka Taliban is that Spain's excellent performance last night (their best of the tournament by some distance) is now being heralded as irrevocable proof that anyone who questioned the entertainment value of their previous games is an "idiot".

Alan Shearer was in full on "and they say Spain are boring!!!" mode last night despite having criticised them after the Portugal semi.

I'd expect that from a pundit as one dimensional as Shearer, but you and your gigantic brain must do better, Darren.

Seen some great teams on my time , England 66 , Brasil 70's , very good German ,Argentine , and Italian teams.

Spain are better in every way and will create more history by winning the next world cup

I think the only slight problem Spain might face is that Xavi might be getting on a little bit.. (He will be 34) but that is not a problem (and also very very worrying for the rest of the world) is the conveyor belt of talent coming through after him (stating some midfielders/attackers as Fabregas will probably take the Xavi role and one of these will come in further up or behind):

Javi Martinez
Juan Mata
Cazorla
Navas
Pedro
Thiago
Isco
Muniain
De Marcos
Ander Herrera
Isco
Koke
Iturraspe

Worrying...
