my sentimental fav is greece...it would be nice for them to have something to cheer about given the economic disaster theyre in right now. but of course im not dumb enough to actually wager money on them LOL
spain should be the hands down fav, unless torres breaks his leg, no other team has the talent they do. its not even close.
argentina is good but messi has a history of playing badly for the national team (blasphemy, i know).
brasil might be good to watch, would love to see pato get the credit he deserves.
england? fo real? i wouldnt be surprised if they get knocked out in the first round. capello or not, they just arent impressive.
i hope france gets annihilated, only because they probably have the worse coach in the history of football, and this guy needs to get the flock out of there. ribery is a great player, but now that zidane is not there, i have no reason to root for france.
italy has my fav league with my some of my fav players (pirlo and nesta) but they lack firepower, unless balotelli plays (which he wont). of course im rooting for jersey joe to do well (ie; giuseppe rossi)
heres the tv schedule....

Huh? If England aren't impressive then why would England v USA be a must-see game?

FIFA ranks England 7th - not 1st. Although it won its Group 6 it had nearly no competition. Where on earth did you gut your authority that it has the best qualifying record???

England scored most points and scored the most goals of any European country in the European World Cup qualifying campaign.
FIFA rankings include all regions. England are 8th (not 7th) in the WORLD rankings.
FIFA's world ranking is based on competitive matches in all competitions. The World Cup qualifying results are but one factor...

Oh boy - why is it that any discussion about the WC always gets heated when the topic is England?

Edit - Not the best performance, far from it, but it ended up with a 2-1 win to England

Who are as we speak, right after me bigging them up on here yeterday, losing to Japan in their last warm up match pre the World Cup having turned in their worst performance for a while, with Lampard just missing a penalty (his second successive miss following his miss in the FA Cup Final) ![Laughing](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/laughing.gif)
