Ghana is good too w/ Essien, Appiah and Muntari.But I have a feeling the Germans are going to take this one, as they will be motivated playing the WC at home.

Guest gabo Posted December 11 Report Share Posted December 11 idk if italy has the talent this year... I hope so!The USA won't stand a chance till soccer becomes as popular as baseball or football... That way they can spend more money on players and coaches and training, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdoom Posted December 11 Report Share Posted December 11 Argentina!!!!! will win the world cup No they won't. They have only one striker playing well - Crespo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frier is Polish as well. Fuck, Asmoah and Kurayni aren't Deutsche as well - maybe actual German players should play for Germany? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicman Posted December 11 Report Share Posted December 11 idk if italy has the talent this year... I hope so!The USA won't stand a chance till soccer becomes as popular as baseball or football... That way they can spend more money on players and coaches and training, etc.they've always had the talent, its just a question if they actually go out and perform to the level that they are capable of. individually they have a very good squad from the top down, but they havent been able to click as a team on a consistent basis.

vicman Posted December 11 Report Share Posted December 11 No they won't. They have only one striker playing well - Crespo.what about messi? i think the question with argentina is that some of their players are past their prime (crespo, veron, ayala) while others are very young and inexperienced or unproven at the WC level (riquelme, messi, saviola). and of course they will be pressured to fuck it up like they did in 2002.btw, the way things are lined up for the second round we could see a germany - england and a brazil - italy/czech republic match in the second round.

Messi is too young. Plus he's number 4 in the pecking order at Barca w/ Eto'o, Larsson and Ronaldinho all ahead of him.I agree with you on Argentina.

drdoom Posted December 11 Report Share Posted December 11 how about teves??? even aimar. i mean not only a striker can score goals when u have guys like aimar riquelme and saviolaThe problem with Argentina is that they have only one strong striker - penalty box poacher. Crespo gets physical and wins headers. Argentina's other strikers are all lightweights who rely on their speed, but can be easily pushed off the ball. Tevez, Aimar, Saviola and Messi are too small to lead a front-line. They could recall Julio Ricardo Cruz from Inter or Maxi Lopez from Barca, but both players are way out of form.

Canniga and Batistuta who were both very fucking physical, so he was able to have more of a free role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
