Edit: wow, that did not work as well as I had hoped
Anyways, that is how I predict the world up will turn out
Guessing this is just ignorance from not being familiar with all of the players. It's a good squad. Maxwell/Luis argument really doesn't matter because neither would play. Cool that Fernandinho made it in the end.
In the best case he is likely losing the match against Australia. I don't care too much about that because we should win either way, but we need him at least against Holland
So Germany's going to beat BOTH Brazil and Argentina to win the World Cup in South America? Okaaaay...
If Argentina don't pull off their usual choke job, the dream Brazil/Argentina final is on. Although, I'd prefer an Argentina/Germany final, which is also possible.
I'm not convinced by the Argentinian defence or the Brazilian offence. I'm not saying Germany are going to walk it, I just think they're the best team.
it's really not that bad. 3 questionable calls in henrique, maxwell and ramires. if jo didn't go they would've had 1 out and out striker in fred. that midfield is really, really good, they should still make the final.
i've seen a lot of people raving about bernard's performances. coutinho probably a bit stiff but scolari is known to be very stubborn. if he likes bernard he'll stay till whenever. it's just a miracle the likes of kaka and robinho weren't selected.
brazil don't have out and out strikers. jo's scored well and played plenty of games. fred and jo are literally their only out and out strikers. then we're dropping back to the likes of pato, damiao. in 2010 they took luis fabiano, nilmar and grafite. in fact the 2010 squad on a whole was an absolute shocker, 2014 is a marked improvement.
Lallana, Lambert, Sturridge, Henderson and Sterling HAVE to go really, although i can see Welbeck going in favour of Sturridge/Sterling. Lampard...im not so sure. Not had a great season, been on the bench way too much.
Gary Lineker leads the TV coverage and will be joined by former England captain Rio Ferdinand, France World Cup winner Thierry Henry, and former Dutch midfielder and current AC Milan coach Clarence Seedorf.
Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis and Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper and former USA international Brad Friedel are new signings for the Radio 5 live punditry team along with Celtic manager and former Northern Ireland midfielder Neil Lennon, who will have a combined role across TV and radio.
They join the impressive BBC roster of former internationals working across TV and radio of Alan Hansen, Alan Shearer, Chris Waddle, Martin Keown, Kevin Kilbane, Mark Lawrenson, Danny Mills, Danny Murphy, Phil Neville, Robbie Savage, Pat Nevin, Jason Roberts and John Hartson. The World Cup marks Alan Hansen’s last event as a BBC pundit before he retires from his Match Of The Day role after 22 years.
Fuck me that's a mixed bag and a half. Seedorf, Henry and Nevin on a sofa could be brilliant, but the next day you could end up with Roberts, Mills and Murphy.
Robbie Savage is on board. Woolcock getting his vinegars on as we speak.
