mittwoch mai 28 - 15:43 Belgium has got 2 magnificent keepers and a fantastic midfield, but their defense is vulnerable and their attack is not so great either. They might survive group stage, if they're a bit lucky, but I don't think they'll get much further.
For me Germany is a formidable outsider to win the title, and we shouldn't underestimate France and Spain either.
Holland always has got a great squad, it wasn't a coincidence that they did so well in the qualification stage!
And then Argentina and Uruguay are always strong opponents, this time it will be no different.
Surprises could be Chile and Equador, very nice squads!
Top favourite is Brasil, with their home advantage combined with a magnificent bunch of top players. And if they need some help to get far, the referees (most likely instructed by the corrupt bunch op FIFA bozoes) won't hesitate to give it to them, remember Brasil-Belgium in the second round at the world cup 2002, where a great goal of Wilmots (currently the coach of the Belgian national team) was refused for a mysterious reason only clear to the referee (Prendergast, still a name which has a taste of corruption and favouritism attached to it, in Belgium ;-)
