              How Torres and Reina make that squad baffles me.

                  what was Diego Costa's reason for choosing Spain over Brazil?

                    Spain and Chile updated, with the later having surprisingly many domestic players in the squad (at least to me )

                    And former Anfield hero, and now laughing all the way to the bank Stamford Bridge Torres somehow managed to make the provisional!

                      Can't really see past Australia for top of the group.

                        Australia updated with the inclusion of talent from Preston North End and Swindon Town. Will be a real challenger for the Dutch and Spanish team

                        Netherlands also updated and their squad includes 7 players from Feyenoord

                          Matigol has been ruled out of the World Cup. That's a shame, he's a great player. Still sounds likely that Vidal will recover from his surgery in time though.
