Who will win the World Cup

[Shaggy]

Well?

I've gone for Spain cos they're the best team - 34 wins out of the last 35 says it all - but I've done a predictor thing and **** me they have a tough route. I have them facing Portugal in the 2nd round, Italy and then Argentina in the semis.

My semi line up is predictable - Argentina v Spain and England v Brazil, although England will surely find a way to **** it up.

Brazil

I think Germany may oust argentina in the quarters. I've got Brazil dicking england in one semi and Spain knocking out Germany in the other.

Therefore england will face germany in the 3rd/4th playoff, meaning it'll actually be an important game for the first time ever.

Brazil.

Might not have the extreme flair of a lot of years but are very solid, have an outstanding goalkeeper, good defence, some big cunts in midfield and flair, pace and goals upfront.

By having no depth at all, being unable to keep hold of the ball and being poor in defence?

Holland.

I think England might just win it, the squad is solid and they have probably the best coach in world football.

I normally don't give them any hope in a tournament, but I have a funny feeling that this might be their year.

Yep, I don't rate them but there aren't many good sides around and they should make the semis. No doubt every single team they face will prove technically superior and keep the ball much better than them, as always, but strength on set-pieces and Capello's nous should see them through.

I think they could against a lot teams, but as soon as they face a team with a decent striker, they will be in trouble.

Predictable perhaps, but I find it almost impossible to see past Spain, they are the only genuine world class team in it in my opinion.

If you defend well against them, like we/Chelsea do in the UCL, they can be beaten. Their defense sometimes looks so brittle and Busqets isnt exactly someone who can stop the opponents from playing.

They had Senna, who was a bull, during the Euros and it helped them a lot. They might find it a bit tough this time.
