I hope Brazil loses in the groups. 

Which one is the group of death?

 

The group of death usually requires to great teams and one good team and then someone.

The closest I can see to that is group D and perhaps group G if you consider Ghana a good team.

World Cup will have to go to my home county GERMANY yea baby. and so sick of seeing it at work on our Bags it drives me nuts. but football is fun.

Holland´s first game is a repeat of the last final against Spain. Whoever wins that one has my vote. Germany, Italy, Brazil and Argentina are NOT contenders IMHO. Belgium promises to be a surprise, but I´m rooting for Orange!

I wouldn't put any money on Italy...and I'm Italian.

 

The way they've been dismissing England as an inferior opponent in recent days (I'm looking at you Balotelli) has irritated me beyond belief. They are in for a nasty surprise come the opening game.

 

I think Germany, Argentina, and Uruguay are stand outs, along with the Spanish (you can't deny their pedigree). Belgium, England and Holland as potential surprise packages. Brazil don't look that strong to me and will crumble under the pressure of playing on home soil.

England are not a good team in fairness. Or rather, they are a good team but not a great team, and generally fair poorly in tournaments. I think England will maybe scrape out of the group stage then crash out in the semi-finals. 

Ah the sweet smell of a massive bribery allegation

 

You almost have to respect dictator Sepp Blatters ability to stay in power for so long. But hey, Ghadaffi managed to stay in power for 42 years...

After seeing Brazil's first match againt Croatia yesterday I feel that Brazil has to work on its defense if it is going to stand up to the other good teams.  That said, I think they played fantastically (even though there was an own goal).

When has Brazil not have to work on its defence? :D

 

 

For the Netherlands-Spain match, if I didn't knew better it was as if either side was switching roles :o

Group G (Germany, Portugal, USA, Ghana) is the group of death.

 

Rooting for, in order:

1. USA (obviously)

2. Italy

3. Germany

 

I'm still pretty shocked at the drubbing the dutch gave the Spaniards. Also shocked the Ticos just beat Uruguay 3-1.
