Default Which countries do you think will flop at the World Cup?

I think France and Italy will be knocked out in the group stages.

Brazil, Portugal and Germany in the quarter finals.

And then teams like Russia and Ghana making it a lot further than usual.

I have a feeling that Brazil are not going to do very well this year. I think that it will end up being very open.. which is good.

I think Portugal will go out in the group stages.

France out in the first round, Germany and Italy out in the quarter finals.

Agreed on Ghana, I'm thinking Ivory Coast will go far aswell despite losing Drogba.

Argentina without question. I mean, Maradona is managing them for feck sake.

Think big teams like Germany, England and Brazil could struggle too.

Haha, thought I'd completely looked over them for a minute.

I was pretty shocked they didn't make it through to be fair.

Yeah there were definitely a few countries that should have made it to the finals, but failed miserably.

Then again, we failed to make it to the Euro finals in 06 so we can't really talk

I have a good feeling about Ghana too. I got them in the last world cup for a sweepstake so I kind of followed them a bit and their team isn't bad. Got Ivory coast this year in a sweepstake on TiBB and off (Total coincidence) so I wont be unhappy if they win as i'll be 32 pounds richer.

Germany will find it tough, there squad is nowhere near as strong as it was at the last 2 World Cup's. Italy don't look as good either, but they still have some pretty big names in there, and their defence is great. Brazil aren't as strong as usual but they'll still score a lot of goals, but I think they'll be vunerable when defending.
