if it's not my country then I couldn't care less, got to laugh at the small minded people who hate another country more than they love their own. Shows a small mind and an inferiority complex.

As for those who have said similar but listed 2 countries then I :lol: even louder at them.

What a surprise.

PS Spagnolito, did you know that Italy are now equal to Spain in CL wins 12 each.

How long will Mourinho last - I mean come one, a winner coming to work at Real and also a guy that plays defensively.... surely this cant be happening at the Bernabeau???
Winners we have no problem with...it's the defensive tactics we have a problem with...as far as Spain and Italy having equal amounts of CL titles...Spain has 9...the other 3 belong to Cataluna

Catalonia is not a country, no matter how much they/you say they are... the Spanish national team would be fucked without Catalonia... and before you say the Catalans have a national team too, think... is it FIFA recognised?

Is England a country...no...is it FIFA recognised...yes. The spanish national team would not be fucked without Catalonia...we'd miss out on Valdes, Pique, Puyol, Xavi, Cesc, Capdevila...Valdes never plays for Spain...Albiol, Marchena and even potentially Sergio Ramos would be good replacements for Pique and Puyol and Xavi and Cesc well we have enough midfielders maybe not of that extreme quality but the likes of Mikel Arteta spring to mind, Capdevila would be easily replaced by the likes of Azpilicueta (if Arbeloa played on the left) or Monreal...we would certainly not be fucked.

lol, England is a country you numpty...

so they only lose the bulk of their starting defence and starting midfield? Oh, well then, easy...
Arteta doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence as Xavi and Fabregas, there's a reason he hasn't ever played for Spain you know

Remove the basque players as well - same thing as Catlunya.

would that weaken france's squad at all, in fact are any of the spanish team basque. Doubt it.

Major comment though, are basque and catalonia are not "legitmate" countries. Does anyone recognise them as such?

Armenia may do. They've shown willingness to recognize such disputed states in the past, more than likely in the hope that in return they'll get support for their territorial disputes with Azerbaijan.

Bixente Lizarazu who won the world cup with France in 98 had a basque passport. I am not aware of any of the current players having one.

I suppose they recognize themselves as countries, but FIFA do not.

If you take out the Basque and Catalan players the squad would be more along the lines of...

GK Casillas, Reina, Lopez
DF: Arbeloa, Azpilicueta, Marchena, Albiol, Sergio Ramos, Capdevila, Monreal
MF: Senna, Pablo Hernandez, Iniesta, Javi Marinez, Jesus Navas, David Silva, Juan Mata, Cazorla
FW: Villa, Torres, Pedro, Llorente

Looks like the Spanish boy is taking this waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too seriously - relax chief!

I agree with Hawkesey that if England don't win I don't really care who does although I would hate to see the Italians, French, Spaniards, Greeks and Australians given extra reasons to gloat - I put Australia in that category not because they have a chance of winning just that they seem to gloat and whinge with the equal diminished grace of the others I have listed.

if you're taking out the Basque and Catalonians, surely you have to take out the people that aren't the least bit Spanish (Senna)
and I think you have just proved our point... take out the "seperatists" and you're left with a severly weakened NT
who the fuck are Moreal and Cazorla!?

How far would you bang on about this, though? Next thing, Cornwall and Yorkshire aren't part of England, and Bavaria isn't part of Germany. :P
