ORIGINAL: Historiker (Podolski) but by both logic and law isn't he one of this usual "bought internationals". The same for nearly all of the German players, all of them have at least on German parent. The only one who isn't a German after the old ius sanguinis is Gerald Asamoah. He isn't in the team any more... We had one really "bought international" in history - the South African "Wunderkind" Sean Dundee. It was a total desaster - for some reason he lost his form completely as soon as he got the German passport. Thus he was only once on the bench of the national team and once on the field for the B-team. I'm almost sure that Germany will win against Austria tonight. But after that? I'm not very optimistic. The performance against Poland was "good enough", not more. I don't agree with all those people who say we played much worse against Croatia. Croatia played better than Poland, and thus our performance was not good enough any more. Big improvements are necessairy in order to get victories against strong teams. I know, but he still may come back... Yes, I have no doubt that we win against Austria tonight - if not, we really don't deserve to get into the quater-finale. But as you, I'm afraid that our tour will end against Portugal - while I think that we were better against Poland, because against Croatia, nothing worked. Nevertheless, the performance against Poland won't be enough for Portugal, that's quite sure, I guess.
