Re: World Cup South Africa

blatantly England to win, just like they do every 4 years. duh.

theo walcott to get golden boot.

steven freakin' gerrard to use his immense balls to tea bag every keeper in the tournament. including the subs. and joe hart.

Re: World Cup South Africa

Re: World Cup South Africa

Actually I thought you would peak come this summer since you had a pretty inexperienced team last tournies. But your goalie situation is so-so (Jürg Butt as starter?) and Der Balle is missing XD Then you have the question of scoring goals (No Kuranyi Sad).

As for the rest of the teams, Spain has a young/skilled team but they won the Euro so no, I'm counting out Argentina aswell unless Messi performs some miracles. Italy, last year winners. France? Nah not this time. Brazil? Nah. So we are left with my two picks barring any African upset Big grin

only if yeff streaks onto the pitch giving his team a boner boost. cos we know the holland team is full of homos.

not worried about england players though, since they have no genitalia.

You're putting England below even the African teams? Dude.

England and Netherlands are my two favourites, actually. Both are even on squad depth and can field big, match success deciding, shining stars and hard working craftsmen alike (with both teams benefiting from two players that combine the two traits - Sneijder and Rooney).

Wouldn't discount other strong reps, but:

France and Argentina suffer under the reigns of madmen. Domenech and Maradona are eating, breathing disasters; calling them subpar coaches is offending Ciro Ferrara.

Italy have a good team, but it's also an old one. I doubt these guys can make the effort.

Germany lacks real, undiluted talent, especially with Ballack absent. I don't believe they have the quality to challenge for the podium.

Brazil... Brazil seemingly has everything it needs, but i'm not convinced. It still lacks that *something*, that ethereal aura surrounding would-be cup winners. Not enough Ronaldinho in the dish Dunga serves, one might imagine. Yes, i'm a fanboy.

Spain, i feel, has burned out. Eternal underachievers, i feel their bellies full with recent success, they'll go back to their role of "playing like never, losing like always". Still, could just as as well cruise to a double, fuck knows. Call it a hunch.

Portugal can't well just count on Simao supplying Ronaldo all the way to the final, so bleh. The golden generation in the likes of Figo, Rui Costa, Pauleta, Nuno Gomes and Baia already had their chances and blew all of them. And i feel that team was twice the team Portugal has now, Ronaldo or not.

All the rest i consider minnows, with illusory chances at any success. Serbia and Mexico spring to mind as possible upset causers, though.

Quite an oversight you are right, my comment was a bit tounge in cheek. But the the cup has only been lifted by five teams in modern times, England not being one of them. Capello seems to have made a team out of them though.

Agreed. Leaving Zanetti and Cambiasso out of the team is just mind boggling (reason for the latter to have been droped is rumoured to be his alledged bi-sexuality, guess that doesn't fly with Macho Maradona Big grin). Domenech seems to be a certified nut case aswell (picking his team based on astrology!?!?) But they do have solid teams with tons of offensive capability.

As to your other points, agreed.* Brazil will be interesting to check out (Brazil can't be brazil without these football magicians), he seems to have made a team out of them aswell. Good point about Serbia, forgot about them completely - good dark horse but team depth? I'll raise a warning flag for U.S. aswell Smug

*I'm not giving up on the Germans though, collective>individual skill. It's the lean mean footballing machine!

P.S.

Typing posts is total mess now, what the hell? 10 years of working forum design and now this? I have to edit every post i make 15 times.
