@ronin

The dutch defense have been crap for some time but you still manage to get results. Chile is using midfielders in their defense because thats how crap their defense is:P

My picks:
Group A: Brazil, Croatia/Mexico
Group B: Spain, Netherlands
Group C: Colombia, Cote D'Ivoire/Greece
Group D: Anybody's game(except Costa Rica)
Group E: Ecuador, Switzerland, maybe France in one of these spots??
Group F: Argentina, Bosnia & Herzegovina, maybe Nigeria?
Group G: Germany, Portugal/Ghana
Group H: Belgium, Russia

@Dahn We will be lucky if we get past the group stage...

@Abe, no you won't. You guys are a very good team, good enough to be second.

A lot of people underestimate Chile, they've got a very strong team, they can be a nice surprise today.
It is even possible that Spain stays out of the top 2...

gandula to be true, and with all do respect, more chances have Brasil to be out of the top 2 than Spain...

They are (along with Germany) top 2 contenders for WC title. Take a look at their players and rotations. They can create even one more team who would be title contender

Chile is solid squad, I agree, but they don't stand a chance against Spain. Against Netherlands maybe, but Spain I don't think so

brazil destroyed spain in confederations cup final. that showed spain needed the change. but del bosque is still sticking with same players who are now again 1 year older.

If Brasil doesnt win the wc in their own country a war will break out!

So for the sake of world peace, we all have to support Brazil?

Yes!

I don't think Germany will ever win the WC under Löw.

Torres cup confederation is a joke to Spain and most of the countries. I don't think we'll see Spain again playing like that. And even though they are the same player, non except Xavi Hernandez and Xabi Alonso (and keepers) arent above 30yo.

Are you saying they did not give their best in the final? If Brazil dont win the WC, it is a big surprise. i support England, but Brazil have to and surely will win....


on other news, thunder (or this harry potter scar-shaped thingy) broke my TV 2 weeks before WC :)

@Torres: lightning (thunder doesnt brake tv's)

on topic: Belgium will win the WC!! Or atleast will do good :)

i knew the word, but i could not figure it out :D thanks
