alstone 374 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 South American team and Messi doing the business.Would like them to do well. I think the South Americans will flop and it will be an all european semi Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 72,695 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I can't see a Bra or Arg winning it tbh.Home turf yeah but they don't look to clever at the back whenever I have seen them the past year. Of course anything can happen but Germany will come good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course anything can happen but Germany will come good.Europeans are tactically ahead of south americans. Think germany have it in the bag and will be too strong in all areas of the park. its their time really, Its not your usual tactically sound experienced German sides that we have become used to over the years there are a lot of young players and a lot of pace in the team as well as all the other good attributes, they are a joy to watch!

Thermopylae 15,287 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Really looking forward to seeing how Belgium get on ... every world cup needs an emerging team 74 had the Dutch 86 the Danes and 2014 will have the pate munchers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 72,695 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Yeah they have such a good mix coming into this WC year.Guys like Lahm and Schweinsteiger (sp) are at their peak levels now while players like Ozil, Gotze, Muller, Reus are all among the best attacking players in Europe at the minute. I think the fact they are a young group who have been together for many years (similair to the current young Belgium team) is going to be a major factor. Last year you saw how much Bayern wanted it after the dissapointment of Chelsea in the CL final and I have a feeling Germany will have the same sort of dogged determination to finally live up to their potential.

JamieD 19,214 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Let's say Messi captains Argentina to World Cup victory, scoring half a dozen goals including in the final. Is there any reasonable argument left to make that he's not the greatest player of all time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Argentina to get knocked out in the last 16, along with England, Belgium to make the quarters. Spain to beat Germany in the semi's before losing to Brazil in the final. my predictions Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harlands plater 17,065 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Must say I fancy Germany out of the European sides, Don't think Spain have enough left to retain it, and Belgium don't have the experience to win a semi if they get that far. Brazil look good but there will be so much pressure on them and I think the Germans could take them in a head-to-head. Argentina look good on paper, but so much depends on Messi - if he has a good injury-free season for Barca, he could inspire them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
plymouthranger 3,937 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Messi has to win a World Cup to be the greatest player ever, it's the only thing maradona has over him.I can't see why people on here and writing off Brazil, they beat Spain 3-0 this year FFS!

JamieD 19,214 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 On the subject of which, Argentina haven't lost with Messi in the side for two years, during which time he has scored 18 goals. Not bad.Shame he'll probably get injured and miss the tournament. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
