Togo Coach wins World Cup Slacker Award

May 15th, 2006 | by: WC Bob |

Mere seconds after I came up with that snappy Axis of Slackers headline, Saudi Arabia and Iran shared their World Cup rosters with the rest of the world, effectively ending the slacker alliance. The Saudi team features goalkeeper Mohammad al-Deayea who has played a million and a half games for his country. They also have forward Sami al-Jaber who will be participating in his fourth World Cup, as well as a number of players who you probably have never seen play. Iran played things close to the vest by offering up few surprises. That means there is one team left that hasn’t published its World Cup squad and isn’t on our complete list of squads.

Togo coach Otto Pfister wins the World Cup Slacker Coach Award! He does have an excuse, however. His team is already in Germany and undoubtedly he is out enjoying the nightlife of his homeland. We hope that once the hangover wears off he’ll let us know who will be playing for his team this summer.

As I was looking the Saudi Arabia Squad I noticed something weird: is it just me or does it seems like all the player plays for the same team even though they don’t?

Let’s hope Togo’s last place finish in the roster announcements does not match their finish at the World Cup
