At the 2010 World Cup in South Africa both Italy and France finished at the bottom of their group, will any traditional power follow? Discuss.
It's hard to pick out one or two of them, but I do think someone will slip up and get a little egg on their face.
I have voted on England. They have mediocre squad, very weak coach and a bit poor results in last friendly matches. I expect two loses in group (against Italy and Uruguay) and quick flight to home. Of course I could be wrong, but I won't believe before tournament.
England shouldnt be on the list with the other powerhouse teams they arent a big nation in football. Uruguay shouldve been on the list instead of them. []__[]
Your avatar fits you well...both the picture and the name....I will be happy to bet you anything you want that Brazil, will indeed, advance out of the group...
ageing players blah blah blah, euro 2012 blah blah blah, LvG 2002 blah blah blah. Holland and every team on that list is going through.
I was expecting to see my USA name up there. We are a big country compared to most and can't seem to put a lick of a team together.
