World Cup look-alikes
- 18 Jun 06, 03:43 PM
IBC, MUNICH 鈥 There鈥檚 a football pundit on German TV who looks uncannily like .
I discovered today he is former West Germany international . He seems to be their number one pundit (in fact, possibly their only pundit) 鈥 Germany鈥檚 answer to Alan Hansen I reckon.
Has anyone else got any good World Cup look-alikes?
On a totally unrelated note, I met up with fellow bloggers Fletch and Ricco last night, who are in town for the Australia v Brazil match.
They seemed to be in reasonable shape considering they鈥檝e spent the last 11 days on the road (although I made sure I stood down wind at all times).
And despite living in each other鈥檚 pockets for nearly 2 weeks they seemed to be getting on remarkably well.
I did notice the odd sly dig here, the occasional cheap shot there, mainly involving map reading.
It seems when Martin wants to get from A to B he looks at a map. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 not the way I operate,鈥 came Fletch鈥檚 retort. 鈥淚 prefer to freestyle.鈥
Good luck with the rest of your journey lads!

G眉nther Netzer isn't the only pundit, there are many others. However, he's the #1 at Germany's 'ARD' channel. He was quite popular as a professional and has the priceless ability (for a football player) to get out his sentences with, often, only minor grammatical errors. In 2000, he and Gerhard Delling (his co-anchor) received a prize for their co-reporting.

Guenther Netzer was one of the best European players of the 70s, leading Borussia Moenchengladbach during their times of fame to numerous national and international titles.
He was a cunning self-managing player as well as a determined business-man, a prototype for modern football player management.
Add to that his flamboyant life-style during his football career and you understand his cult status in Germany.
Today he serves as manager for a broadcasting rights-licensing company.
Very interesting, bright guy!
