you English just don't get it.
you're nto that good!!!
as for the EPL, a great league your country pays handsomely to import the best players in the world, but you need to expose yourself to some different styles.
Brazil, Germany and then a big drop off. I would say maybe spain, netherlands, argentina (maybe one or two others one of the koreans?)...and then another small drop off to the next maybe 25 teams.
Originally posted by orion25I say Korea could surprise a lot of people, semi-finals at best but why not? Face it, it's not as if anybody has played much better yet.
Korea??? lol
As for Brazil, everybody always tips Brazil. Even my three year old nephew tipped Brazil (as best as he could do) and he's never even seen them play. It is trendy to tip Brazil and requires no knowledge of football. OK, they might win, but tipping them to do so is just easy and unimaginative.
Final will be Brazil-Spain. As we saw yesterday defending champs a mere shadow of themselves. Germany played a patsy so we don't know if they're for real. Dutch looked really strong and played a better opponent. Argentina may grow or fold. We'll see. Brazil should crush NKorea, but weirder things happen.

Originally posted by asromacalcioFace it. No one plays football like Brazil. Easy one. Five cups and two runner ups. No one has been to that many grand finals, except Germany. and Italy come close. Italy: four cups, two runner ups. Germany: three cups ,four runner ups. Between these three you could throw a dart blindfolded and easily pick a probable finalist every time. Always knocking at the door. USA was third place in first WC with an amateur team! The big three have dominated the WC and probably will for years to come. Only Argentina, 2 cups, two runner ups come close.

Originally posted by scacchipazzoI reckon that NZ could stuff up all your theories and predict we may even take them out if it is a bad hair day. Can't say the same about England, not many of them have hair.

Brazil plays NZ in semi final. Must get great odds on that impossibility.
Originally posted by zm775After the Spain debacle anything is possible. I do know England does not have a rat's a... chjance in hell to make it past round of 16. Might not even make it to round of 16. Yet Spain, the much vaunted side also sucks! A team unable to solve the defensive riddle of the Swiss does not deserve to advance. And yet Brazil also looked bad!
