    I think its Argentina to win this year, their squad is immense everywhere you look.
    If I was gonna go for outsiders who might surprise a few, probably Chile and Colombia.

    here, we believe in the coach, but not the players .... which are almost the same as in South Africa
    LOL yes! Same deal for the Netherlands.
    Probably the worst defence my country has ever had.
    Van Gaal even changed the 4-3-3 formation wich is like a deadly sin over here.
    They are now playing 5-3-2, including two defensive midfielders i think.
    Van Gaal even considered adding a second Goalie to cover both sides of the goal

    @Rob... Still reeling from 1-1 2010? :P Green slipped up and let 1 in! And in terms of group results we were dead even, USA scored more goals but also let more in You guys were then knocked out by Ghana LOL... Admittedly we were battered by Germany but heh... Germany vs Ghana... No contest!
    i agree Brazil are way overrated.
    Spain, germany & Argentina are better.

    i watched that whole game vs Ghana and i felt so bad for them.
    USA totally should have won that!

    if they had won and then beaten Uruguay in the quarters it would have been USA vs The Netherlands.
    Thats like a dream semi for me.
    And a win-win cuz either my home country or my fav country would have won that

    Exactly!
    i stopped taking England seriously after that.
    How do you not even get to the quarter finals with a team like that?
    i thought they were gonna win the WC for sure that year.

    Wow, amazing game, the Dutch completely dismantling the Spaniards, and it could of easily of been by even more. I think Robben has got even faster, must be he's more streamlined since going bald.....now if only Rooney took note with this.
    The Dutch have certainly sent out a message to all the other teams in the tournament with this result.

    i hate soccer, why the hell is it in a trials forum?

    I hate soccer because: its bullchit to pay players millions, while everybody can play it
    I hate soccer because: it gives people a reason to go drunk and break things
    i hate soccer because: the so called pro's cant even shoot straight, and the ball flies over the goal like 15 mtr
    i hate soccer because: it isnt a game any more.
    i hate soccer because: cars hunk whole fcking night,
    i hate soccer because: they tell sometimes that 1 player is player of the year????? wtf...its a team sport for god sake.
    i hate soccer because: there is now a GOD footbal. i mean....c'mon

    my point is: i hate soccer

    P.S: i am Dutch and hope they lose

    The players are extremely overpayed but the alternative is to give ALL the money that this kind of popularity generates
    to team owners, officials, bureaucrats, FIFA mafia types etc. That would be even worse imo

    Or.. instead get rid of this rediculous undemocratic economic system we are all under,
    get rid of banks and create a system where all people can be truly free and equal.
    But that wont ever happen sooooo yeaahhhhhh
