I fancy their chances to advance out of the group but a bit of an over reaction ...no?

Possibly an overreaction, maybe because reigning champs Spain as well as England have just been eliminated too!

I think it's because Holland and Chile are stronger that expected. One of them will play Brazil in quarter and Brazil don't look that strong.

Germany should have been favorite from beginning in my eyes.
Balanced squad, great keeper, deep.

I love my $100 on Italy to win at +2500. After they beat england they moved to +1600. I may lay off on them at some point, but right now me likey.
As was said, a couple of big squads have gone out, others don't look as good as they were supposed to be.
Great WC so far.

my initial tip
the only reason they were not is this whole 'south americans in south america" mystique

i tipped them in 2006 after seeing them draw (normal time) vs australia and win in extra time with ten men
but this year's bet? that's confetti dude.
italy were flattered by england's missed chances. italy arguably should've lost based on chances created
they were dead flat on the swift english counter attacks. another sharper team will smash them on the counters
my bowel movements are quicker than the italian backs

We will see......I see Italy making the quarter's and possibly the semi's. I loved them here because at +2500 and being almost guaranteed to come out of their group, there was a ton of value there. As I said before, I can lay them off after the group round and things will work out well for me, or I can hang on a round or two if they continue to look good.

usa is not the topic of this thread pal. Question is what are your thoughts about Germany and the odds change? Do we pound Germany to win the Cup at +382?

Who else outside of Germany has a genuine chance to win the cup ? I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to soccer.
