If Rooney plays, england will go deep but they wont win. As for brazil, they are great and all but their star players are aging, maybe 3rd or fourth.
Germany, no King Khan, no way.
Italy and france havent played that well. Spain has good scoring potential, but I dont like their defence as much as other teams. I think the czechs if they get their heads screwed on right, have the offensive flair, dynamic goaltending and saavy defence to win the entire tournament. Koller's injury wasnt as bad as thought, and Nedved is at the top of his game, and dont forget about an emerging Ruzicky(sp).
What the hell happenned to turkey, ireland and greece? It's strange isnt it, a few years ago who would have thought that these teams wouldnt even qualify.
