| What the saddest part about The World Cup is that there are so much injuries. We have to miss Reus & Ribery for example. Even Ronaldo and Messi aren't well. My opinion about the strongest: Spain or Brazil. Spain has a strong squad! They have Ramos, Casillas, Costa, Torres and much more. But we don't have to forget that Brazil plays at their home. So they already have a one step more. Germany and Portugal are also favorites. But remember that Portugal didn't had the chance at all without Ronaldo. This guy is my favorite and now he is not well enough to play the first match, has Portugal a risk. Germany is now stronger than Portugal in my eyes with Lahm, Gotze, Ozil & Podolski... And countries like England also has strong players, but they are not one of the biggest favorites to say it like this way :) I'm really about so many injuries before the World Cup and dissapointed that Turkey doesn't play. But to be honest, they wouldn't have a chance to get in the next rounds... Excuse me for my English by the way! |

| Clearly Australia is winning this one. Just look at the group they're in. It's going to be a cakewalk all the way to the final. This is rugby we're talking about, right? |

| It'll be so anti-climactic if Spain wins again. |

Mr7Beans said: Brazil is going to win easily, no need to watch. Easily? Yeah right, with a dolphin as their biggest star. No matter how you look at it, their team is shitty (except for the defence, of course). Sure they will have plenty of support and the conditions are in their favour but the same can be said for all the SA teams. |
 |
| I was born in England and I remember watching them as a boy, and being let down every time, I'm still cheering for them, but I'm not going to expect too much to be honest. I think Argentina, Brazil, Germany, or Spain are likely to win. Oh, and no Zlatan = not a proper world cup. |

| Even if Brazil comes first in their group they will play the 2nd place Group B team which could be Spain/Holland/Chile. Brazil going aganst Spain in a Round of 16 match is a really early WC final match up. Who will suffer more, Costa Rica or Australia? |
 |
HAHAHA! I had an absolute laugh for 13 minutes... But jokes aside, things have really been going on really seriously at Brazil. I hope nothing happens during the opening ceremony and match later today ): |

That's true... but sadly this is the World Cup after all, you either meet strong teams sooner or later. I'm thinking Costa Rica would xD |

He was 100% spot on. FIFA is a truly despicable organization....and yet, I'm so goddamn excited about tomorrow... |

| There will be atleast 2 surprise packages in the semi finals this time around; mark my words. Belgium, Portugal, Chile, Uruguay, Colombia, England (yes them getting to the sf would be a very very big surprise). Take your picks ladies and gentlemen. |

I don't think he's douchey, he just doesn't give a fuck and likes to joke a lot. Too many squares out there. |
|
SweetKotomi said: Who will suffer more, Costa Rica or Australia? Of these two, I bet on Australia. Overall, probably USA. The last time they had such a weak team was in 1990. |

Belgium and Colombia perhaps but unlikely. Portugal and Chile - most likely no, and Uruguay - no way in hell. |
| Chile makind 2nd round in their group doesn't look likely. |

MitchD said: Yeah, he said something like this: "I'm not playing, so there's no point in watching. It's not even a real World Cup." Maybe he was joking, lol, I don't know.Post-Josh said: Did Zlatan actually say this? Haha. It wouldn't surprise me. I don't think he's douchey, he just doesn't give a fuck and likes to joke a lot.

| 2-0 To BRAZIL |
|
| GENTLEMEN! THE TIME IS NOW! THE WORLD IS WATCHING! LET'S PLAY SOME SOCCER! |
| It's a shame the Brazilian public seem determined to wreck the event however they can.... The build up has been so disappointing. So here's hoping for a Brazilian masterclass to ignite some passion. |

JustALEX said: you mean FOOTBALL, LET'S PLAY SOME SOCCER! FUTBOL!!!1!1!1! Yay, Martin Tyler to commentate. Neymar the piece of shit better not dissapoint. |
|
| It's starting now Brasil!!!! |
 |
| if mandzukic was playing i think croatia would've won 2-1 i'm calling 2-2 or 1-1 |
|
| Croatia too lightweight in the middle of the park. BRBRBRBR will dominate as the game goes on. |
