Someone had to do it Cheesy. And no "football sucks" posts please, or I'll chain-fear you in a pool of hot molten lava.

So what team(s) do you support and who do you think will win the cup?

I'm a bit sad, but obviously not surprised, that Belgium didn't manage to qualify. So I'll have to go with Spain. They have great players across the board and are not overly dependent on one or two talented players to make a difference.

Argentina have a lot of talented players as well, but I'm not convinced of the managerial abilities of Maradona.

Brazil on the other hand seem a bit weaker than usual, but their players always manage to surpass themselves on a World Cup. I can't believe Dunga left Ronaldinho and Neymar at home though, I really think they lack quality strikers in the seleção.

I go with Italy of course Tongue

Actually I don't care who will win as long Spain and France will be eliminated. For sure Italy will fight hard to keep his title of Champion of the World.

well im screaming for 2 weeks at every that ask me maf on with team did you put your money and i always tell them that i will be spain. i mean common with that midfield (xavi/fabregas/Iniesta) and villa + torres as strikers its hard to beat. count in the defenders have a real attitude like if you pass me you are eating grass they have a good change to win)

sadly our dutch cows will be eliminated in the quater finals like always probably by penalties.

I'm with Spain in this case as well. With the strikers and midfield Maff mentioned, they will surely put some pressure on the other's defense lines.

Regarding Messi and the boys (Argentina), the only problem is the coach, Maradona. I've seen some of his interviews, loads of cr@p in it. Not every single good player will make a good coach. (Rudi Völler hehe)

Besides Spain, there's one more team I'm rooting for, and that's the Netherlands. I've been rooting for them for like 10-12 years, but with Robben struggling with injury, it'll be hard for them. Smiley

Greece is not and never was a good team, plus I don't really appreciate Greek football. About today's game, it could have been better, it could have been worse, at least it was more fun to watch than yesterday's France match Tongue

It was more fun in the sense that Patsatzoglou got in. I kinda loled there. Or how Rehagel used Vintra as a center back... Or how he swapped Karagounis instead of Seitaridis, Charisteas or Tziolis... Or etc. etc.

EDIT: And why the fuck didn't he get Kyriakos in?

laiin sometimes the universe does something you really dont expect, 6 years ago the universe made sure charisteas or whatevah his name could makes goals with his head while the rest of the team read 10 players made sure every ball was kicked far away.
