    Futures in post WC season
    Many stars had no holiday between the previous season and this one. They won't be fresh. This will hurt their clubs down the line. Something to consider when finding value with soccer futures.

    Example. Bayern Munich is the sky high favorite to win the Bundesliga. The next team has +950 odds of winning. But look at the Bayern squad. Almost every key player went deep into the World Cup. And that following the CL final. How are they going to avoid fatigue?

      you make some good points here, but the best example would be Inter, Bayern not winning the Bundesliga in a season is an uprset imo....

        Looking for an upset that's not really an upset. After the last WC in 2006 Bayern ended in 4th spot in the Bundesliga. They won it the next year, then ended second (after Euro), and won it again last season.

        Inter will have a hard time repeating as well. They probably won't. Barca is another interesting fade.

          No wau Barcelona doesn;t win the title again....
          and related to Bayern, who can win it ? werder ? never won it recently ? HSV ? slight chances. leverkusen, now with Ballack ? hard....
          Bayern has weak opponents, and they will buy new players for sure, probably from Bundesliga, like they always do

            I think Inter can repeat and win this year. Many of Inters players dident play a lot in the WC, like Samuel, Muntari, Etoo, Milito etc. Its the brazilians and Sneijder that might get fatigue, but its not 100% sure that Maicon stays and if Sneijder needs rest we can throw in Philippe Coutinho who I really hope will get the opportunity to play and he will especially if Balotelli leaves. He might become the next big star. Inter will have an even better squad this year if they can sign some new players. They have already got their hands on a half ownership for Ranocchia who will come in Januari.

            Roma have the biggest chance to snag the title imo unless Juventus can sign some better players and get the team working with their new coach.

              Inter will look totally different this season, with Rafa Benitez

                Mr.Kitty you a Inter fan? Me too I agree I think Inter can very well repeat this year and complete the treble again. Our biggest loss will be Maicon and he was huge. We cannot replace him but to put into his spot a young kid Santon. Many don't know who Santon is but he shut down C.Ronaldo 2 years ago in the CL. Benitez is a great coach imo. Mourinho is an awesome coach that Benitez will not be able to replace and losing Maicon and Mourinho could be huge or not.

                      Yeah im a big fan, Inter have been my favourite team since I was 10 years old and started playing soccer, Ronaldo was my hero. I almost only have Inter avatars here on the forum . Santon will get his chance to become a starter this year if he doesnt get himself injured, I really like him, he might be a future captain.

                        I was born in Italy and lived there for 15 years and I've loved Inter since I was a kid. Read that Balotelli was offered 20 million Euros from Man U but I don't know how true that is or if he will go. Also heard Bentitez only wants Mascherano from Liverpool and also wants to bring over G.Rossi from La Liga.
