    Groan, another WC thread. Well I'm salivating at the mouth here and I can't fookin wait for 9pm to come, a month of football, three games a day for the first two weeks, lovely jubbly :D

    So rather than just predict who is going to win it predict who is going to finish 1,2,3 AND the Golden Boot with the amount of goals scored. Golden Boot can be shared.

    Let's see if anyone can predict all 5 events correctly, I'll begin

    1 Argentina
    2 Brazil
    3 Portugal

    Golden Boot: shared by Ronaldo & Messi, 6 goals each

    Putting up a top scorer after he has just scored a hattrick is absolutely reprehensible behaviour!.....but you have gone with an extremely bold selection of Russia for 3rd.....i will hold off on my tirade of abuse until Russia shame the motherland.


  • Registered Users Posts: 140 ✭✭chelseaaremagic


    after the above comment i take it this thread is de facto closed ----unless a 'top scorer' is nominated from a country yet to play!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,854 ✭✭✭✭Idbatterim


    my prediction! Muller could be top tournament scorer after this group alone, even if Germany werent to get any further! 29/1 pre tournament for the previous world cups last scorer! Not a chance Ronaldo or Messi or any of the other cliched, no research or realism "favourites" will get it...

    In all seriousness id not mind seeing Brazil, Germany, USA. No suggestion on the boot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,812 ✭✭✭thelad95


    1 Argentina 2 Brazil 3 Germany

    Golden boot = Neymar 9 due to him running riot against Cameroon and Mexico.

    This World Cup has been turned on its head after the first round of matches. Despite them all being pre-tournament favourites Brazil, Spain, and Portugal don't really look like being capable of winning it. Holland must be seen as serious contenders now and Italy, who typically get stronger as tournaments progress, will be in with a good shout too IMO

    as highlighted in the US game, any team's outlook has the potential to change at a moments notice, sometimes it's a simple as a hamstring failing.

    You sound like a Garth fan. Or a Cork GAA football fan. However, all is not lost.
    But my grandma says to your grandma:

    After Germany drubbed Brazil 7-1 tonight I think you're now the last man standing from all the original predictions before it kicked off. Well done.

    To become a total legend all you need happen is for the Argies to beat the Dutch and Germans and for Brazil to beat Holland in the 3rd place playoff. Best of luck with that bit :D
