Around SBN: When Dwyane Wade Lost His Cool

This Is Getting Ridiculous!

Nilmar bagged another goal, leading Brazil to another victory today, this time over Oman. It seems that he just can't stop scoring for the Samba boys - once he puts on the other yellow shirt, he becomes almost unstoppable in front of goal. Against Oman, he scored in the 4th minute, and had an 11th minute goal called back for offsides.

He has been on fire for Brazil as of late, scoring a hat trick in September, along with three goals in his last four matches. Considering his generally uneventful run of form for Villarreal, we can only hope that he can bring a little bit of whatever water it is he is drinking before the international matches back with him to Spain.

As a side note, next week while in Spain, I will be interviewed by Radio Vila-real, and possibly, from what I am told, by VillarrealTV. Luckily, I will be able to do it in English, with the help of an interpreter. I look forward to spreading the word about the new penya, VillarrealUSA, as well as the supporters back home and around the world. I will try to post links here when I know a little more about it, but the website for Radio Vila-real is http://www.radiovilareal.tk.

This Is Getting Ridiculous!

1) It’s easy to score goals vs. England B side , Omen, Chile , etc

2) La Liga Defense are more tougher than above teams.

3) Villarreal Midfield Sucks

Despite what has been reported previously the draw for the 5th round of the Copa del Rey will be made by RFEF on 1st December.

Scoring goals in international football is no mean feat, no matter what the opposition. It is quite a remarkable record.

By the way, Nick, good luck today.

thanks maddi! We’ll need it!

I think Nilmar still has to adapt to La Liga, it will take at least half a season before he’s fully settled in. I’m sure we will see the benefits soon enough

Another option, kqql:

4) Nilmar is not playing at the same comfort level for Villarreal as he is for Brazil.

Not to mention, the goal against Oman started with a pass from fullback Maicon, not the midfield. And besides, is anyone attempting to compare Villarreal’s midfield to Brazil’s?

And yes, it is quite possible that many of the Primera Liga defenses he has gone up against are better than those mentioned above.

Sorry Nick about Ireland……….I thought you guys were going upset France today………

Anyway, handball keeps Ireland away…………..from highlights I saw….Ireland wasted a couple chances to go up 2-0……………
