Argentina to beat Brazil in the final imo.

[Ashberto]

Spain and Germany the vanquished semi-finalists. England and Holland won't get out of their groups, but Bosnia-H will. So will Belgium, unfortunately, but the Portugeezers will see them off in short order.

South America.

Italy have lost their captain and don't have as much as England going forward.

If we get through we'll get Ivory Coast or Japan in the 1st knockout round, which should be an England win.

Then perhaps Spain in the 1/4 final. We'd be second favourites in that, but I don't think Spain are the side they were 4 years ago. England beat them last time they played too.

So I'm going to say England will be defeated by Brazil in the semi final. 3-0 to Brazil.

It's going to be Ballotelli and Remy, fwiw.

I was watching Mario play last night as if he was already an Arsenal player :-)

if we were to sign a sane individual.

Hopefully Arsene can calm him like he did van Persie.

Wouldn't surprise if the Germans grind this out.

Should have the local support too.

[Luis Anaconda]

for all their drawling over the likes of Draxler and Reus, it has been the much-criticised Podolski who has transformed the German attack when he has come on in the last two games

up front?

Just remembered they have Schurrle too. Not short of options :hehe:

[Luis Anaconda]

so with Muller up front he's probably go for Gotze. Not surprised they've replaced Reus with a defender - Boateng is far to close to getting a game
