England for me.... although I am certain they will crash out to Uruguay in the group stages...
But Hodgson has put so much faith in the youngsters... it was a relief not to see the likes of stupid Cleverley and co... Sterling, Barkley, Lallana, Shaw will be very interesting to watch... and thankfully Steven Gerrard has got fantastic penalty practice his whole EPL season!
If they play to Liverpool's strength's... they have a huge chance... but I doubt Hodgson will do so... he'll play lame Rooney as the central striker opting Sturridge to play wide... and probably over rated Wilshere will start instead of Henderson...
But still they have a great chance.... I expect Barkley and Sterling to shine!

And then its probably Uruguay for me... with Suarez, Cavani, Godin etc.... it will be really awesome... plus Luis has improved his play as well as his behaviour!!!
Other than them... Germany and Belgium have a great shot...
Cant see Spain retaining their champions status.... the squad is not as united as before thanks to the El Classicos and plus Costa seems to be injury prone these days, Torres is no striker. Only Villa can probably spin up some magic...
Will be happy if Argentina wins it but I dont see that happening...

And Brazil... absolutely disappointed in Scholari's squad selection... No Kaka, no Miranda, no Lucas Moura, no Philippe Coutinho.... Instead an underperforming Oscar, Willian whose been bettered by Coutinho!!! I hope they lose.
Joke of the day torres no striker

I think we have almost made our first signing in the form of Emre Can dubbed as the new Michael Ballack. And we are linked to interesting names... what do you make of Lallana?
Our defence needs to be sorted.... BR wants Lovren who is great but I dont want Agger to leave... :(

I think the time has come to make those decisions for the betterment Agger although great but is too prone to injuries and physically isnt that great like Sakho or Skrtel so if u have someone like Barca coming with 15-20 million pounds u should take it particularly since he is close to 30s so its better to do that then to make him unhappy. Plus barca are looking for CBs and it would be an awesome move for him too !
