Absolutely! I'll take Europe and you can take everyone else. Loser has to play the PB18 turns mischief.

The real question is if Argentina is playing in the finals, would you go for them?

It's a bet, then.

I only need South America, but if I can get the rest of the world, why not? lol

I like Argentina, by the way. I live down south, we are fond of going against everything that is widely considered as brazilian. I'm actually rooting for a new Maracanazo!

Isn't he like 50 years old? I liked Gaspar's Götze pick (he was my second choice after Suarez) but there are at least three players on the German team I'd pick before Klose (Özil and Müller as well). The more I look at Germany, the more certain I am that the "home continent always wins" streak is over.

Yeah. I think its pretty hard to make a case that there's a stronger overall team than Germany. I think I probably still expect Argentina or Brazil to win but I think Germany has the clear best squad.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Germany only wins when the teams that they face are the ones with the clear best squad. lol

I disagree that they have the clear best squad. Though I'm rooting for Klose to make some goals and takes Ronaldo from the place of the best scorer in World Cups. I don't like Ronaldo, he has a very bad character, in my opinion.

Edit: Can this thread be the one with the general discussion about the WC or should we create a new one (and leave this one to the predictions)? Since TT is making the tally, I think he has the final word about that.

Okay I'm up to date with predictions now I think.

From those who have expressed interest, I have yet to receive predictions from

If you have already posted predictions and I have missed them, feel free to point them out.

I don't mind this thread being a discussion thread if its easier, but it might be better in a separate thread just so there is less chance of me missing a set of predictions.
