Spain are my favourites, it's between them and Germany who have the best 2 squads. Brazil should do well being at home but they aren't in the same bracket as the above (though home support in a World Cup is a wonderful thing), Argentina will also enjoy the climate. Belgium are ones to look out for with the team they have, Uruguay have the most in form player so could be tricky, and England are a dark horse.

well said

erm check them facts >>>>>>>>>>>

Argentina >>>>>>>> REALLY READ AGAIN

Argentina will IMO fail at last 8
Portugal will fail last 16

messi is best player in world what ever balon dor says ronaldo only won it cause messi was injured and messi is hungry for world cup says its only thing he has to achieve dont care bout statistics portugal had a lot more games than argentina as they have euros etc and messi still only 30 odd gls behind messi will prove whos best in world cup

Messi still has a better record internationally. Ronaldo obviously has played more but career wise Ronaldo has 0.47 goals per game and Messi is 0.48. I don't know where you get the rubbish from about Ronaldo being great internationally as both of them don't really replicate their domestic form for their country. Argentina will go further than Portugal, Portugal are nothing without Ronaldo whereas Argentina have more quality players.

messi hasnt had the weapons to supply and dodgy defence but there getting better dimaria etc aguero higuain tevezz levezzi

Most of the Argentinian squad play in Europe just like most of the Brazilian squad so climate shouldn't come into play, only players that will have the advantage of the climate are the "lesser" South American countries as most of there players aint playin europe to my knowing.

African teams should enjoy the climate too

England are already out of the world cup, especially if they dont beat Italy.

Ooh dear

I've got to say my comment about Old Trafford and atmosphere stands

Having just got back home
What a great night
And a cup final awaits

City in the final who cares about the result a great day out awaits

Mata to United, that could be the Ozil of the January window. Not sure what Chelsea are playing at giving such a good player to a rival.

Jose, for some bizarre reason, doesn't rate him. Not quite sure why, as he was the heart of the Chelsea team before Mourinho went back. Just seen that Hulk has posted a photo of him and (I'm assuming) his agent on a private jet landing at Luton airport. Possibly might be why Jose has sold Mata? Also, it's quite clear that United will do nothing this year, so they're not really rivals at the min. Another point being, Jose has always had some sort of weird love affair with Man Utd....surprised he didn't go there to be honest.

Deal for mata is simple...

They give mata to utd

Utd give rooney in the summer.

They should be getting Falcao first, or Costa or Benzema. Well let's just say if I was Chelsea I'd rather keep Mata and sign a different striker

mata doesnt track back cause hes not fast enough but mourinho is a idiot by not playing player of the year at chelsea mata is a class player but wont turn utd in to world beaters caus they still wont get the dodgy decisions with moyes that they got with fergie

why would they want rooney eto and torres are better than him

Are you on acid mate?

Chelsea are known for not having any of their strikers score any goals at this point in time its all midfielders like hazard, oscar, lampard etc etc, so there clearly in need of a decent one, rooney is by far a better striker then both of them, Maybe if it was 5 or 6 years ago then id agree torres and eto'o would be better then him but were talking now mate.
