I agree witha lot of what you say certainly Ger v
azil is a likely final, but I think spain will be too much for ireland. Also USA may pull off a shock win maybe 40//60 chance.<

My original pick to win it all got bumped out in the first round (that was Argentina, for the curious...) so now I will go with Italy. Brazil will fall to someone... <B>God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam; God bless America, my home sweet home; God bless America, my home sweet home.</B><

Well to be honmest I think the only side with a decent chance of stopping them are Italy, other sides may but I would bet against it. England or Germany 'may' beat them, I think Brasil will just roll over everyone else. Want to read news thats actually entertaining-Go here<

The WC isn't as interesting as usual to me, but that's only because Holland isn't in it this time. :/<
><
>But it's a weird tournament though, a lot of 'favorites' are on the way home already. <
><
>Personally I hope Korea comes far in the tournament. Their play resembles the dutch way of playing. I really hope they beat Italy. They only play on defense and they make the match sooo boring. They start playing soccer when they get behind. <

>I thought Germany and Brasil weren't as good as they used to be. But they are doing pretty well. It could be the final, but England and Spain have a good chance to reach the final too. <i></i>

Well america is through so who knows, I think england could have won the world cup except for the fact that Brasil are in way <
>Yeah Korea play 'total football' totally :-D Want to read news thats actually entertaining-Go here<

I don't think Korea is as good as Holland was back then. But I like their mentality. Always attacking even if you are ahead. Just like soccer should be. England has a good chance, and Brasil isn't that good really. Even Belgium had a really good chance to beat them. If only their goal counted... stupid refs... :/ <i></i>
