Spain practise penalties

[Figaro]

Does Luis Aragones know something we don't?

 

In the friendlies: 0-0 against Russia and Saudi Arabia up next.

 

And he's got them taking penalties... Bye, bye España

[Stevie H]

he's starting with raul up front then?

[Eskimo]

Don't matter who he starts with we are doomed I tells ya... For some reason the national coaches always go Italian on us and go for the 1-0 drives me fecking crazy....

[Cobs]

he should get Tim Henman to help coach them

Looks that way - Raul will start against the Arabs and is a cert to start against Ukraine in el Mundial

 

Unbelievable.

Ah yes, but Spain are supposed to be playing a new attacking 4-3-3 which includes Liverpool's Luis' Garcia. Can't remember where I read this. Could have been ESPN.

[Hector McDougal]

Who is going to start alongside Raul? Hope it's Villa but could it be Torres? Any point in sticking a few quid on Villa for top scorer given that they've got tunisia and the Saudis in their group?
