World Cup 06
- Thread starter cp3
- Start date
Prediction: Probably Brazil to win. Ronaldinho has been in top form so I can see him slicing and dicing every other teams defense in pieces. I'd be suprised to see Ronaldo partnering him up front.
However, since I'm a BIG Thierry Henry fan, I am going for France to go all the way.
With Football / Soccer world cups though, I like a lot of players worldwide, so it is hard for me to choose which team I want to win.
I'll go for ALL OF THE TEAMS involved.

VERY decisive Hendra!!!
Socceroos all the way in a major upset!!! Where's your national pride everyone???

^ You know what Marc? Socceroos will always have a chance to do well because as we've seen in the past, anything can happen in football and who would've bet Greece to win the Euro Championships a few years back.
Socceroos is already an automatic choice for me but I'd thought I will share my other unbiased opinion.

brasil for sure. argentina possible. italy will choke again, england will self distruct as usual. france will struggle to make it past group stages again i think.
Brazil & France I will be going for... since Arsenal is on kinda of a roll at the moment, Henry will carry that through to the Cup & France I think will go well.
The next big question will be, who will be Cinderella team this time around ?

I gave the host nation a chance before they became a popular choice, but now think the new found expectation will be too much - they need Ballack to be in player of the tournament form to have any chance. As we all do, I really want the Aussies to do well, but with Cahill and Kewell not 100% fit, it will be much harder 
The longshot picks to do well for me are Sweden and Croatia(really hope not)
Of course you can't go past Brazil - RONALDINHO is amazing. Here's proof:

$1.50 thats a little short considering we have the world number 1's and Croatia in our pool. Australia to win the world cup , and if they dont the germans will win.

I hope the US don't win a game and get flogged each time out. That would be sweet.
I think the Zillars have the best chance but I would like to see spain go all the way.
France and England will choke as it's what they do.
Can't wait wait but.More sleepless nights

brazil and without breaking much of a sweat i reckon. i really want spain to get their act together, so much talent, so little success at world cups. portugal are the same but slightly less talented. germany will make the final four but no further. england are gone with rooney and owen out. france i dont know, could go all the way again, could be bundled out very soon again. same with argentina and italy, always football powerhouses but their wealth of talented indivudals cant work together to make great teams. ive got a soft spot for the african teams too, always like to see them go far.
Shoes said:I'll be plonking on Australia to not go past their group stage at $1.50 on sportsbet safe as housesand brazil to win
I made that bet in combination with a few others to get better odds......I hope it loses and Australia advance to the next stage though
