I'm still fucking mad that Sweden didn't make it. The most boring teams, Greece and Bosnia did, but we couldn't because of my most hated team in the WC, Portugal.

Why? Bosnia's team is not even that great!

I have faith in them. They are much better than any of you give them credit, Argentina might win, but it will be very difficult. Of course, there's always a referee to gift them a penalty if all else fails.

Romania won against Bosnia with 3-0 a couple of years ago so they can't be that good!

Hmm, which one to watch today. Seems like Switzerland Vs Ecuador would be the least one sided, based on the predictions here.

But that one should also be the most boring. If you need to watch one, I suggest Argentina - Bosnia. Many of you will be (un)pleasantly surprised...


I have only missed one match (Mex v Cam) this Cup. I saw most of or the extended highlights the other matches on Thursday and Friday. I saw all the matches yesterday. So far the matches I have seen have been anything but boring. I am sure a boring match is due soon, though.

This is my seventh World Cup (granted I was very young in 1990 but can vaguely remember some of it) and I cannot recall a better start. 

Usually the group stages are boring affairs with teams trying not to get beat rather than trying to win. 

This year has been great so far with Cameroon probably the most negative team.

Don't be surprise if Switzerland and Ecuador throw up another good match.

Don't put to much faith in Messi, unlike when he is playing with Barcelona, when playing with Argentina he only does "meh". Last WC he didn't do anything (not even a single goal iirc) and he only did ok during the south american elimination to the WC.


You've got old info. These qualifiers he played outstanding for Argentina (more goals than games played IIRC), while playing meh for Barcelona. This is his final tournament in which he really means something, so he has to deliver.

By the way - 3.5 goals per game? Dayum! Such beautiful offesive game.

My predictions:

Switzerland 2:0 Ecuador

France 3:0 Honduras (though I wanna see Boniek play good ;) )

Argentina 3:1 Bośnia & Herzegovina (you guys sure are underestimating Bośnia, it's a bloody good team, they will put up a fight)

Can I change one of my predictions?

I'm want to change the Argentina game to 5-0.

Do you guys remember the thread about Pirlo being the supporter of Playstation and Rooney of Xbox? And all the Xbox fans saying they have the better player and bigger star? Yeah, right :P

Pirlo is the last true team general, every time Italy attacks, he has to put a "stamp" on the ball, even though he's so old and way past his prime. And his free throw execution? Still arguably the best in the world.

I knew Italy was well prepared for the tournament. The lat 7 games they have drawn 6 and lost one, including the recent 1:1 draw with Luxemburg - all this meant they are in tournament mode and great things are coming for them ;) Vintage Italy. The Germans are terrified :P


Nobody said that.  Nobody.  Stop trying to score warz points in the world cup thread. 

Shouldnt you be supporting Poland?


I always knew you had a very poor memory.

I am. Polish players are getting ready to face Portugal tomorrow.
