    I think teams will stop at 4 or 5 nil....if indeed it gets to that.

    I can't believe they beat New Zealand, they must have loved that.

    They're 4000/1 at William Hill to win it.

    Brazil 6/4, Spain 7/4, Italy 7/1, Uruguay 8/1, Mexico 11/1, Nigeria 20/1, Japan 33/1.

    Uruguay to win/Cavani top goalscorer is 40/1....will put a few on that.

    i think it will be a Japan vs Brazil final.

    Brazil wins group A. Spain wins group B.

    Japan beats Spain in semi-final
    Brazil beats Uruguay in semi-final

    I'm not too sure mate - No South American team will give them an easy game.

    I can see Japan giving them a run for their money too.

    Italy were unlucky in the Euros and cheated imo.

    Spain are absolute freaks. The amount of top players they are producing is unbelievable. They could probably field 3 teams that would be capable of winning a World Cup and I watched their u21 team against Holland and there is some brilliant talent in there too. It isn`t too unrealistic to suggest they could win every major international competition in the 10-15 years. They probably will be stopped eventually but they are doing great work with the amount of players coming through

    No easy games...but played off the park? Very much doubt that.

    And Italy cheated? They were pumped 4-0 :97:

    Yes, Spain had more rest than Italy.

    Unfair. Very unfair.
