HAHAHAHAHHAHA why do you post that list?

Either Germany, Spain, Brazil or maybe Belgium to win it.

belgium will not win the world cup

Don't dismiss them so easily. They have a good squad.

[Muncey]

I'd be surprised if this wasn't a buy out clause. Seems cheap.

Good shout actually, I think that's why most their great strikers leave. Spain are big on buy out clauses. Still have to pay big wages to tempt him.

Luiz off to Barca apparently, can't complain he'll never get back in at cb.. Too much of a liability. He's not a natural midfielder either so probably no happy playing there.

If mikel goes were left with lamps (old) matic and the bag of shit Ramires in cm. Definitely need to bring someone in.

[rockonin]

I just hope we dont get Khedira to partner with Matic. I'd like Pogba or Vidal.

They have a good starting 11 but their bench lacks depth

atletico president just phoned spanish radio and said that is not true, i don't think costa is going to leave. atleti has a LOT of money atm. if they want to buy him they are going to need to offer a ridiculous price

He's clearly lying. The media have even said it wont be formally annonced until early June so Athletico finish their games. Costa is coming

[DiegoSapiens]

you are doing right trusting sport media

[rockonin]

The Costa deal has been brewing for a while now, its not just come out of the blue. Im not sure about Athletico being financially stable either.

[DiegoSapiens]

well i am, they have a lot of money and since all the spanish teams owns a lot of money they have to show their money every six months and in the last they had almost the same money as madrid with players with a much more small salary, plus they have won recently with the uefa champion matches 50 millions or so. they i have a LOT of money. plus as i said , they are not stupid, they aren't going to make any negotiation about the principal striker of one of the candidates Tteams of the world cup before the competition.

[Muncey]

you are doing right trusting sport media

Dunno if Sky Sports would call it a done deal if it's not true tbh. I find it more believable that the president would say it's not true and wait til June for the official announcement to avoid any tensions before the champions league final and the end of the season.

I reckon it's done. Sky sports have no reason to publish a bullshit story while the Atletico president has numerous reasons to deny until an official announcement.

[rockonin]

^Exactly. Hopefully Torres goes the way as well.

[wub]

Real Salt Lake

Sporting Kansas City

Columbus Crew

Houston Dynamo

Fucking LOL at some of these team names.

[garethom]

Belgium will get through the group stage because their group is tat, but they won't get further than the second round.

Surprise teams at the WC (not that they'll win it, just that they'll do better than people expected) for me are Bosnia and South Korea.

I had Brazil beating Spain in the final, Germany 3rd, Argentina 4th.

[Source = My world cup predictor at work]

Real Salt Lake

Fucking LOL at some of these team names.

iirc, they've got an association with Real Madrid, hence the name. Real Madrid paid for, and built a massive youth academy for Salt Lake/the MLS in general because of it.
