yer brasil always strong chance but its unlikely they will go back to back

no one in history has done it :p

czech team for me, darkhorse(their skills are so under-rated), great odds too =D

Who is this guy? Another great England player? c'mon England have Beckham and nothing more.

Personally i don't think Beckham should be in the side, we have much better players.

If we can work together and try and actually mould properly then i think we have a strong chance.

If money was involved however i would sit it well and truly behind Brasil.

He actually is the best italian football player ;)

England have:

Neville, Terry, Campbell, Cole, Beckham, Lampard, Gerrard, J. Cole, Rooney and Owen. It's a world class team when it plays to its ability. I think Rivaldo has retired/been dropped from international football btw. Germany will be strong.

OK, firstly, it's waaaay too early to start World Cup bragging lol. Now to address some issues brought up anyway.

Um Italy in '34 and '38 off the top of my head (have those years etched in my heart along with "82 :D ). NOt sure if there were any others but I know that for a fact.

:laugh:?:laugh:: ehm.. No, you don't know him...

Um can't beleive someone thought Toni was English. That's sacrilege to any true fan of the beautfiul game who knows ANYthing about European football. He leads the serie A in goals. With all that said, Gila is the best striker in Italy:yes::. And I was a Gila fan before he even came to Milan and thought he was the best striker in Italy. Now that he's with them he is only the second best striker on the team (behind Sheva) and deals with a LOT more attention after the last two seasons he had with Parma. Plus he's six years younger than Toni. And as good as Toni is he's more in the mold of Vieri. A great finisher but he doesn't create his own opportunities as much as Gilardino does. But yes I think a 1-2 punch of Gilardino and Toni in the World Cup will be nearly unstoppable:yes::. Shcokingly enough, it is Italy's defense that concerns me more than anything:blush:: . Never thought I'd hear myself say that

Hmm, last time we (brazil) went to one world cup thinking that we had already won, we lost....i prefer when it happens like last cup, nobody gave nothing ebcause we have barely qualified.

Indeed brazil have some impressive players, but other countries too.

I think as was said before by SoulSphere that Holland indeed have a good chance, Mexico, Argentina and England would be my other bets.

I just hope Germans will not cheat like Japan/Korea....ffs, remember the games against Italy and Spain.

Another thing, i think it is ridiculous for the last champion to play the qualifications.

edit here.

Btw England x Argentina in the stadium few meters from where i live (Geneva).

If not many ppl, ill watch it with my wife. :happy:

You, my friend, are mistaken. Brazil have won back to back World Cups - in 1958 & 1962, as did Italy in 1934 & 1938.

Man, Brazil have great chances, but England, Czech, Italia, and Portugal have great teams...

Personally, I think Brazil will lose in the 1st Phase. I hate this "best team" hype, and to get great results, they will need to fight against the ego, fist of all.

I'm looking forward to the World Cup - and as its in Germany, should be on at slightly more sensible / accessible times!

Fingers crossed for England - i'm proud of our country and our team but I think there are just teams out there who want it more than we do. And for gods sake, I hope they keep Peter Crouch off the pitch.. he's fecking useless!

LOL France football Zidane here!

Mateus-ES does seem a bit confident.. but thats pretty symbolic of the Brazilian team anyway. They do have some spectacular players though.. I think they will get pretty far into the contest!

Just don't want any more of that Rivaldo style football.. gets a light tap on the leg or something, covers his face as if he's in spectacular pain, and hits the deck rolling round like he's just been shot.

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough" by Usama Jawad We have seen Microsoft resort to questionable tactics in the past to get more customers to use Edge, such as "bribing" people to use Edge, testing new behavior so that Edge loads automatically on startup every time, and pressuring OEMs to exclusively bundle Edge in Windows PCs. However, the company often receives pushback not only from customers but also from the Browser Choice Alliance (BCA). Now, the collective has penned an open letter to the Redmond tech firm to highlight its dissatisfaction with its practices. For those unaware, BCA is a coalition that touts several browser vendors as its members, including Google Chrome, Midori, Opera, Vivaldi, BrowserWorks, and Wavebox. Its latest open letter to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella emphasizes that "enough is enough" and that user choice on Windows should be respected. It claimed that the company is abusing its dominant position in the PC space to push customers to its first-party browser, even if they don't want to use it. To do this, it resorts to shady tactics, some of which we highlighted at the start of this piece. It says that Microsoft is making it very difficult for users to set their preferred browser across all touchpoints. This is problematic as PCs are becoming even more prevalent in the AI era, so user choice is being restricted across even more devices, further frustrating users (and competing browser vendors). As such, BCA has urged Microsoft to take the following actions to level the playing field: Allow browser suppliers to compete for preinstallation and default deals with Windows PC manufacturers End dark patterns targeted at users seeking to download and effectively use other browsers (including as system-level default) Bring back the ability for users to make switching default browsers simple and transparent with a “single click” change for all relevant file types and apps (including PDFs) Open all web links in the users’ selected system-level browser of choice Eliminate manipulative Microsoft-exclusive banners pushing Edge in Windows, including when users are searching for other browsers Stop using operating system updates to push users back to Edge Remove the restrictive configurations of existing S mode devices that block the usage of third-party browsers. It believes that all browsers should compete on merit, as this will drive innovation and healthy competition. Despite its strong wording and publication of the letter openly, it's unclear if Microsoft will pay any heed to the BCA and if this will result in any tangible downstream benefits. We'll likely find out in due time.
