If its any piece of mind Brazil went into this tournament 5/2 and Argentina 9/1.

I think the bookies know what their doing.

Good bet you have i say.

Remember bookies dont set prices on who they think will win they set prices on who is betting on who to win
hence while i dont think England have a chance find a Non-english affiliated country and you will get a much better price on them to win

Without doubt. I'd love it if they came up against England at some point! Gerrard said today that England won't win a thing with their present form...can they up it?

Hopefully the Czechs can come 3rd behind the Argies and Spain so I can get paid!

I really really really hope that works out for you, honestly...

Go on the Argies!!!!

I think you'll find that my choice of S.Korea is proving both Machiavellian and Nostradamusesque.

I'll bet they top their group (if anyone wants to give me odds!)

My Ghanaians are looking pretty good. Awesome performance against the Czechs. I still can't believe some of the teams people here picked ahead of them i.e. Paraguay

It sure is.What a turn around Klinsmann has made 10 weeks ago he was not liked at all in Germany now he is a hero,its such a fine line between success and failure in football kind of like poker.

I think Germany will make the final only to be beating by the English.:)
