What do you guys think about the country Ghana, that was able to beat the U.S. and Czech Republic? Think they might make it far?

Perhaps there is a chance.

They were an underestimated team.

Originally Posted by Afrikio USA are one of the team that get over confident, when winning and just loose their game but with Altidore and Donavan... oh and also Dempsey they can really pack a punch

I've been looking at Altidore this season, and he hasn't had a bad start to life in the Premier League, shame he is playing at Hull though, he won't get the service he needs to score goals, which is a shame. Dempsey will be big for the US in this.

Originally Posted by Afrikio Brazil is also a key team to the finals, why? They have Luis Fabino, Ronaldinho (great freekick taker), Robinho, Adriano, Kaka, and Daniel Alves. With key players like this you really gotta watch you back for any danger what so ever

As for Brazil, they are very hit and miss lately, I don't know what's wrong with them but they don't appear to have the class on the pitch that their squad should so be producing, obviously they will do really well in the tournament itself, but I think they'll overestimate teams...again and just not be as preapred as we know they can be.

Originally Posted by Afrikio Lets Not forget Daniel Guiza for Spain who is also a great striker.

See, that's just the talent of the Spanish squad, it's so easy to forget names of other top class players. I am sure at one point my team, Aston Villa, were linked with Guiza, but nothing came of it.

Originally Posted by Afrikio England is really pumped up for the World Cup, why? Wayne Rooney who is doing an outstanding performance on Man Utd. will be a key play for England and Frank Lampard who is one of the best Midfielders. And you gotta love the one and Beckham with his deadliest free kicks (He actually lead the World most goals on free kicks then followed by Ronaldinho)

Rooney is in fine form at the moment because he is playing in his favoured position of Centre Forward. He is dangerous here and defenders really have no idea what to do with him. Frank Lampard is again playing superbly for Chelsea and I hope he can carry this on throughout the rest of the year and in to the World Cup, Capello seems to have him playing really well for England at the mo. I wouldn't worry too much about Beckham, he'll be a bit part player at the most, you need to watch out for the dangerous pace of Aaron Lennon & Ashley Young, as well as some other really class young lads who have made great strides and broke in to the squad recently, like James Milner. Be very wary of the threat Jermaine Defoe poses too.

Ghana, have some top class players playing in the top leagues in the world, there is no doubt the potential is there, but the occasion may over awe them.

Bout time there were some proper football fans on this site

Lol i'm a big footbal fan and also there is a rumor that Alitdore might be transfered to Liverpool, Chelsea or Man.Utd but these top class barely need more players, especially like Man.Utd with so many good players.

Now Germany will also play a key role in this tournament also they've got Ballack, Klose, Lahm (we hustles so well). Their struggle will be can they keep up their standings show it but their attitude are way offline Ballack has started to get eaily tempered when bad calls are made like going to slap the refree. Oh! and lol Swhienstiger lol something like that leads the table with the most red cards lol he just goes for the player and is also a good defender.


Argentina are loosing their game here in qualifications, Tevez is extremely busy with his club football, while Messi is trying to back him up. Messi is a very great young player, but i'm afraid he will be marked down like crazy but greatly known defenders.

Ivory Coast gotta step their game up with Drogba leading them as their great striker but can they make it, i tahught they would be the first African nation besides South Africa to qualify first than the rest but looks like they are struggling so are Cameroon with Eto'to
