Default World Cup thread

So who's gonna win the world cup?  I'd probably have to favour Argentina at this stage.  France are also a big chance but I think the lack of competitive matches over the last two years might just tell on them a bit.  I'm not prepared to write off either Italy or Portugal just yet.

Swing low, sweet chariot. England for me...altho I'd like to see Deutschland in the final four.

I'll have to agree with C_L and Steve, either France or Argentina gets my vote:

Croatia for me. (I'm half Croat, so I'm biased).

I still can't believe they managed to win that game.  Apparently they've declared a national holiday overthere.

I'm gonna stick my neck out here and say that France won't get through the first round.   They need to beat Denmark by two clear goals, and nobody knows exactly how fit Zidane is right now.  I think they might just struggle.

Yep, France are history, didn't even score a goal!  Could Argentina be next?  Somehow I'm not quite so sure.  Incidentally, did anybody else see the Senegal/Uruguay match?  How did Richard Morales manage to miss that header right at the death?  Surely it would have been easier to score!
