They might have beaten us at our national sport, but we managed to beat them at their national sport twice in the 20th century. [Replying to Kenneth Clarke, who said, "Isn't it terrible about losing to the Germans at our national sport?" when England lost to Germany in the 1990 FIFA World Cup Semi-final.]

During the 2010 FIFA football World Cup, “Paul the Octopus,” from his tank at the Sea Life Center in Oberhausen, Germany, successfully predicted the outcome of the seven matches of the German national team and the final. “Prediction” took the form of Paul picking one of two boxes, each marked with the flag of one of the competing teams, and each containing food. The probability of getting all these predictions correct is 1 in 28 = 256—so not that startling. And it’s even less startling when we take into account the law of truly large numbers. In fact, in this case, because 1 in 256 is not so small a probability, the numbers don’t even need to be “truly” large. Nonetheless, Paul’s apparent “power” made him an instant media star. He was made an honorary citizen of a town in Spain, and ambassador for England’s 2018 World Cup bid.

Ik vrees dat die groep oververwende getatoeëerde halve jeanetten zelfs tegen Ierland niet kan winnen, mogelijks enkel tegen Zweden. In het laatste geval eindigen we 3de in onze groep en komen we in de 1/8ste finale uit tegen Duitsland waar de zogezegde n°2 van de wereldranking, België dus, genadeloos zal worden afgemaakt. Dat zou trouwens geen slechte zaak zijn, dan kunnen we vanaf juni 2017 Michel Preudhomme nationale coach maken. En speel eens met een achterlijn met op de flanken Meunier en Jordan Lukaku naast Alderweireld en Vertongen, met op het middenveld Carasco en in de spits Batsuay. Zet de leeggespeelde De Bruyne (al weken niet meer in vorm) op de bank en laat Hazard maar over het veld dartelen zoals hij wil. En negeer al wat Wilmots (geef hem stadionverbod als het moet) als instructies meegeeft. Speel eens lekker anarchisisch onder de leuze "Ni Dieu, ni maîre" (Léo Ferré).
