Who will win it?

[Chazza]

I think England will win it. I think he can field a very good team, even though it lacks the star individual talent.

Massive defensive issues though which I think will ultimately be found out by the top attacking teams.

[Chazza]

Having watched Chris Smalling yesterday there is no chance England can win it with him as a first choice centreback.

Varane out of the tournament with a thigh injury.

It was to me.

I don't think many thought Italy would win it and all eyes were on France, Germany, Brazil and Argentina. Italy had the individuals, but I'm sure there was some controversy around that time too.

They had a piss easy group, a piss easy run to the semi-finals and then turned on their class.

Most things are a shock to you muds.

What? To me? No way!

[Fernandinho]

Varane out of the tournament with a thigh injury.

Rumors are he will miss the first two games.

I'm expecting some jammy results. The prospect of England winning a major tournament is truly terrifying.

Even the owl couldn't be that lucky

Have you seen the Italian squad??? Marchisio and Verratti are both out and they don't have a single decent attacker. They won't score enough goals to get out of the group stage probably!!

We'll be lucky to get out of the group.

Disagree with that about the individuals. There's been squads with better individuals.

They had a team first and foremost. They had the spirit and the uniting factor in their siege mentality due to the Calcipoli scandal. It was very similar to the 1982 win.

I've voted Spain because the girl I'm seeing is Spanish and that would make her happy.

Ergo I'd be happy.
