I am in Germany and I live in the same with a huge Germany fan, yet we both agreed that German has no chance of winning since the German team has so much ill players. However I look forward how they will play there.
Favorite players? That would be Tim Wiese, the second goald guard from Germany since he plays in the same sport club in the town I live-Werder Bremen

I like the World Cup. I'm not really into football, I try to watch all the Man U games but that's it.
I remember World Cup 2006. I was at a big conference with work and after it was over, they put a HUGE screen up so we could all watch it. I had..... a few drinks, and when England lost to Portugal, I ACTUALLY cried XD I'm a total fag.
Hope they at least beat the US anyway
I'm gonna put Cammy in an England kit I think |D
Oh and poor Mandella, his great-granddaughter getting killed the night before it starts ;__;

France can't beat Uruguay. According to the narrators, Uruguay has only won one match during World Cups in the last 40 years, and it was against Korea. So you France haters can be happy.
Argentina plays tomorrow, we're so hyped over here! Of course, our group's the easiest one (Nigeria, South Korea and Greece), but whatever, go Argentina!
I really don't see why people say Spain's going to win. I mean, even we have greater chances (Messi-Tevez-Higuain, anyone?), but nobody ever counted us as candidates. Besides, the best football player ever is our coach.

I actually think that the Netherlands and England have good chances. France can be happy if they survive the group phase.

Doesn't stop him from being a retarded coach.
Seriously "yah we'll be fine without Zanetti and Cambiasso durrr"
Probably why you're not favourites. Plus I don't see Messi getting support up-front from anyone as talented as Xavi or Iniesta, hence the lack of an impact he's had on international football.

Zanetti was the only real mistake.
And all players currently training say that Maradona's doing a great job, and that they trust his abilities. We'll see.
And Messi? Lack of impact? Barcelona won every tournament they could last year, with Messi as the top goaler. He's at the top of his career, and I don't think he's coming down for a long while.

But well, I can't help to feel a bit of nationalism every now and then, especially in the World Cup.
Tomorrow Argentina's up against Nigeria...

Partially because, well, I'm Californian, and partially because I think it'd be interesting to see the US win.
But besides that, I'm also rooting for a couple other nations for no particular reasons.

My country's first game is against Germany. I hope they draw because the 2006 world cup was not kind to us, and if we lose in the first round it'd be just PITIFUL. Even I can feel the pain.
As for who will win, I hope it's an African country. It would be good for the people. <3
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts

Well, I reckon they'll get to the second round before getting beaten on penalties. I'm not much of an England fan cos I lean towards thinking they are all overpaid tossers, but I tend to get caught up in it all.

Most probably, yeah. However, USA has been on a roll recently. They got to the finals of the 2009 Confederations Cup (which is something like the "Pre-World Cup" Cup), losing only to Brazil (3-2). So this could be interesting.
We'll see in half an hour!

Totally agree. If we can't beat the USA, how the hell are we going to beat the way better teams of Italy, France, Brazil, or even Argentina?!

Cambiasso was a bigger mistake than Zanetti IMO, no one's exactly going to badmouth Maradona (doesn't he have, like, god-like status in Argentina?), and note how I said in international football.
That said Messi was really promising in today's match. Shame I can't say the same about any of the England players...

I dunno, Zanetti is more of an all around player, and this one would have been his last World Cup, so I think he should have been called. Another veteran who's retiring after this Cup is Verón, who was kinda promising, and today sucked big time. AND rumors have it that Zanetti and Verón don't have a good relationship, so calling both of them would have been a bad idea; so Maradona (who, BTW, DOES indeed have god-like status here around die-hard fans) had to choose one of them. I don't know why he chose Verón over Zanetti, it was a huge mistake IMO.
But that being said about Maradona, a lot of people badmouth him here, believe me.
And you're right about Messi's influence in international football, now that I know what you mean. During the qualification round, Messi was unexistant. Today is the day he started shining (he had 4 or 5 amazing shots which were only stopped by the equally amazing Nigerian goalkeeper). Seriously, he was incredible.
To be honest, we were very lucky today. Argentina could have tied, or heck, even lost: our defense was awful, and our midfield was also very bad.
If those two sections improve for the next matches, I don't know how far we can get.

Seconded
However the major problem of the english team was that they never have outstanding Goal Keepers
I mean his rate is like 2 goals a game or something like that
However Germany soon has its first game
I bet they'll suck

Well, Australia's not that good of a team, but they're not that bad, either. Well, congrats anyways, you Germans! I still hate you for kicking us out in 2006, mind you.

I thought he was always a trustable goalkeeper, however if I hear his name always one match comes to my attention: a certain free kick from Ronaldinho against England, how he misjudged the ball there.
Germany played fairly well against the Aussies, but I have to say their defense was really weak today. Quite sad in fact, because they were praised for their ''old solid'' defense. Australia lacks pace in general, their backs couldn't keep up with the German wingers, thus resulting in a lot of free space behind their backs. Anyhow, have to give the Germans credits for their performance. They did well.
