World cup!! :D

Uruguay didnt keep the ball well. However,they are a team to watch out for. Suarez and Forlan are two of the best strikers in the world.
France are just cr,ap and sh1t. Domenach's an idiot. Doesnt start his best players-Malouda and Lass Diara -.- Toulalann,Gourcuff and Govou are all useless.
wdf was that about playing 4-5-1 against 10 men with a right winger central left and a Striker on the right.. -
please dont talk about Irish sports if you havent played them properly or watched a good match. You don't run with the ball -.- I don't actually like the sport and i think it's sh1t but you don't know the rules of the game obviously. Its like me talking about curling,i don't know a thing about it so i don't say anything about it.
Curling's awesome. -
South Africa
-South Africa have qualified for the first time to the World Cup finals for the first time,but only automatically since they're the hosts. To be honest,the only players i know well are Mokoena,Piennar and McCarthy who've all played in the Premiership. I'll still try to do my best.
-Khune will be starting in goal. From what i've seen of him he's made loads and loads of bloopers but his last couple of matches ,especially in the confedarations cup,were very good which has cemented his place and pushed competition from Josephs. He's also young at 22 now and has shown flashes of class. If he plays his best consistentnly he will be a test for strikers around the globe.
-Their main defender is Mokoena who is currently playing at Porsmouth. He's vastly experienced with over 100 caps for his country. He's reliable but slow,and not talented with his feet but the best South Africa have to offer. His partner in defence will probably be Booth who is also tall,lanky and experienced. He has the same weaknesses as Mokoena though and they will not keep out the top strikers. The left wing back Masilela is actually pretty talented,and has good pace. His opposite Gaxa is also very agile and has good pace and good height. Overall,their back 4 are tall and experienced rather than natural talent.
-The best midfielder South Africa is definetly Pienaar. Great stamina and work rate,with good energy and passing he is the main man. Great player to lead the team and drive them on. Has enjoyed a brilliant season with Everton where he has impressed numerous times. The other starlet in their team is probably Modise. He has flare,and can create and score goals and the hopes of the nation rest on his shoulders. The rest of the midfield is pretty average,and looks like there may be a goal drought from the midfield.
-The most famous South African player of all time,Benni McCarthy hasnt even made the squad! The coach stated that he was too fat. McCarthy is probably most famous for leading Porto to becoming champions league winners when Jose Mourinho was a newbie manager. He scored many important goals (including knocking out Man Utd) and got a big reputation and attracted much attention from big clubs. However,South Africa will be looking for others to make goals in the final 3rd. Mphela will have to lead the attack with the best record,but is a very inconsistent player with big mood swings. The other 2 strikers that were brought look extremely poor aswell.
I think that their biggest problem is definetly going to be goals. The front line looks very ordinary. However,never ever write of the hosts! Some amazing things are known to happen especially when a whole country is supporting you!! Remember Korea's amazing run to the semi-finals in Korea 02. Anything is possible! I doubt anything amazing will happen though

Modise could be in the Premier league next season. I wouldn't be surprised, watch this space.

I'm part Irish, and lived in Ireland when I was younger. I played something they always refered to as 'football' and it involved picking up the damn ball (no, not rugby)
Don't expect me to remember everything from my childhood -_- -

They clearly don't know about soccer..
IMHO, Spain looks very strong.
As they always do ^_^ for some reason, I don't think they're gonna have as big an impact this time round. Perhaps because of the whole Torres situation (lack of games and a few recurring injuries).
Ageing Italy are highly unlikely to retain the cup, unless they can win pretty much every game by one goal or so. No top class striker, Toni's slow as hell, and Cannavaro isn't half as quick as he was 2 or 3 years ago either.
Brazil are, as always, the obvious favourites, but they're not undefeatable, by a long shot.
If England are gonna win it, most of the players such as Lampard and Gerrard, are gonna have to start pulling their weight and replicating their club form, since, for alot of our players, this may be their last chance the win the biggest prize in world sport. -
Well heres my two cents and forecast on the game, the BR are gonna lose in the round robin and get so made and RQ for a short while, they'll google "Football World Cup Hack's" and download the first ones they come across that are still working. And then they'll start to hack their way into the semi-finals only to get banned for hacking by the ref.
Don't you agree

After seeing Argentina play against Nigeria,chance of Argentina winning the world cup (in my opinion) is not much.
They have a great control of ball/teamwork/passing/dynamic,fast play but their finishing and defense aren't the best.Messi(my favourte player) played very well and made lots of chances to score but he and Higuain missed all of them.
Heinze's goal was absolutely amazing and well-played.
Veron played like an old man,I don't even know why is he even in the team.A younger,faster player would do better.
Honestly,I don't even think they will even make it to the Semi-Finals. -
Aha, I love Messi as well.
He was the one trying to make all the goals.
And yes, I have a VERY STRONG feeling they won't make it to the semi-finals. OK, I have to admit, Nigeria wasn't that good at all, Argentina shouldn't be winning by just 1 goal. It should have been at least 2 or 3. -
If you've watched them play at all in previous World Cups or international tournements, you'd know by know that we have a bad reputation for starting slow. First few games we always look lackluster, but improve as the series moves on. Hopefully we'll be able to get in game and make it to the final.After seeing Argentina play against Nigeria,chance of Argentina winning the world cup (in my opinion) is not much.

Actually Argentina - Brazil would be an interesting final.:)
