Good call I reckon. Spot on with this team. Hard group, could crash. Could go all the way. Typical Italy.

Italy would go out if it was an easy group. They step up against bigger teams. Wouldn't be surprised if they beat England and Uruguay and lose to Costa Rica

Not really. Last world cup we just had a crap squad selected by our dinosaur manager who showed to much faith in the old guard and still thought it was 2006. I predicted wed go out first round we were that hideous. We get through the group almost every time although we did crash at euros 96 and 2004 in the 1st round. In 96 we had superior goal difference to the czechs, but went out because they beat us. 2004 level on points again with the swedes and danes with iferior goal difference but even if we had more, based on h2h between all 3 of us we still would have gone.

We wont lose to Costa Rica. Quite simply, away from Costa Rica, they are rubbish. You make fair points though, we do step up against bigger teams and it would be right up our alley to do what you said

Cameron's players on strike cause they have no $

The by far best future bet is that Argentina scores most goals thay have a very very easy group and will atleast score 9-10 goals in the groupstage
