In my opinion the best team is FRANCE. Zidane, Trezeget, Henri i think they will make the difference. I think they will only be eliminate for bad luck, or if the GERMAN way of playing (they created a way of winning world cups without playing any football, just strenth, long range kicks and crossing balls in the box) prevail. Italy without BAGGIO will not get that far in my opinion, i don't think TOTTI and DEL PIERO are in a good moment.
I agree with coasterking too, Portugal may be dangerous because they are playing home and they have a strong headed coach. And thanks to him, Portugal are free from that weird Vitor Ba?a... He is too weak...
Spain is Spain, ppl always say a lot about them but when the time comes, they take their bags and go home...
But the most important, I hope FOOTBALL wins!!!
Tomorrow my team, Sao Paulo, will play the first match of two at the semifinals of the most important South America Championship: Libertadores da America Cup!!! I'm so ancious!! I hope we're in TOKIO AGAIN, as we were at 92/93 beating Barcelona and Milan to beat PORTO THIS TIME!!

SuperMegatron, Finland didn't qualify
The one big problem they have is on the left side of midfield. I bet England are rueing the day Ryan Giggs chose Wales over England. Mind you, I bet he is too
Well they could have won the world cup in 2002 if it wasn't for Seaman getting lobbed AGAIN. I really do think England might have a chance of winning the World Cup in 2006. They have a lot of really good young players who will be 24-27 by then and hitting the peak of thier talents (eg Gerrard, Joe & Ashley Cole, Rooney, Terry, Robinson, Parker, King, Johnson etc).Nyarlathotep wrote:CoasterKing wrote:

I disagree. You have to remember that the nucleus of the Portugal first team is made up of FC Porto players and they have just won the Champions League. I think the one area where they may get caught out is at the back because both thier first choice centre backs have no pace.The Kron wrote:Portugal have got one of the weakest squads imho, Your money won't be with you for long Phantom

Baggio's career went downhill when he booted that penalty kick over the bar back in World Cup 94. He hasn't had a starting spot on the international squad since then, why would he make a difference now?Git/\nn0 wrote:Italy without BAGGIO will not get that far in my opinion, i don't think TOTTI and DEL PIERO are in a good moment.

It's the home advantage that will make the difference, mark my words. I think that Portugal is in a winning mood now after Porto won the Champions League.The Kron wrote:Portugal have got one of the weakest squads imho, Your money won't be with you for long Phantom
France may have a good team on paper, but look at how well they did last world cup... they were eliminated in the first round.
And Holland.. well, we definitely have some great strikers (Kluivert, van Nistelrooy, van Hooijdonck, Makaay), but they never seem to be able to reach their full potential in the national team.

I can say that dude! I'm brazilian and i remember that scene as that was yesterday after these 10 years!!!Lunchbox wrote:Baggio's career went downhill when he booted that penalty kick over the bar back in World Cup 94.

Romario was considered the best player in that World Cup, but the ONLY ONE who could miss that penalty kick was BAGGIO!
Italy games were so much more DRAMATIC (despite Brazil X Netherlands). Baggio played that World Cup final under pression of Juventus because he was injuried and the president didnt' want him to play that final! Baggio played the last 4 of 7 Italy games, INJURIED and made the two goals against Nigeria! He was the one dude, i'm his fan... Brazil had the amazing BEBETO forwards aside Romario, but Italy, just Baggio...
If it wasnt Baggio, Italy wouldn't have qualified to the final match.
In my honest opinion.

Here's the odds at some UK bookmakers: http://mybetting.oddschecker.com/mybett ... /sid/44817
Looks like France/Italy are the big favorites. Followed by Portugal/Spain/England/Holland.

I think England, Spain or Italy will make it. But I'll cross my fingers for the Czech Republic and Bulgaria, I have a kind of vision which tells me one of both teams will make it far.
(Okay, to be honest I hope that CZ will make it because I'd drive over to the CZ then and party in one of their great bars with their cheap beer. Cheers. )

I agree plus Italy were incredibly unlucky to not win the Euro 2000 final against France. I remember Alessandro Del Piero missing a complete sitter near the end of the game when Italy were 1-0 up. This could be the Azzuri's year.Lunchbox wrote:Baggio's career went downhill when he booted that penalty kick over the bar back in World Cup 94.
