A bold prediction, Peaches.

You're lock in.

Snaff, if you're determined to keep this thread going because of a pathetic need on your part to get a high post count on it then can you at least attempt to make sense.

I think he's suggesting the go ahead goal could make them the winningest team as long as their headball is good against the opposition offensive line.

I'll take Brasil...Home team advantage...

Brazil v Germany final. Same as 2002



Townsend out of England squad selection I believe.

Aguero 4th muscle injury whilst playing for City yesterday makes him doubtful to recover fully for WC.

^Which shows why making predictions at this stage would only be done by people with little interest in soccerball.

He's fine. Just went off as a precaution. His own words.

OK, Good.

Some people are sticking their necks out and making some calls.

I bet Argentina ages ago.

^
Short odds?

5/1. A fair price with that front line I think.

And Ronaldo e/w for top goalscorer at 12's.

Spain will do well, too...

So, harry has Argentina, I have Brasil...Peaches has Australia...

And?...

Picking a winner isn't that difficult out of around 8 probabilities.

The 2 finalists or 4 semi-finalists would prove more of a challenge. Over to you.

Well then pick a winner.

Quite fancy Uruguay 'arry along with Belgium to do well but I hope the Arsenal physios sort out the Ox lad, we need him fit and well out there.

^Now that Uruguay has gone to pot, that is a very good bet...They have won it twice before, at home in 1930 and again, wait for it, in Brasil, in 1950...

Geez, Boo, ffs, pick a winner...
