You guys aren't making it out alive
That's why it's fun for neutrals to support us, like last year's Tahiti team.

I watched Korea play today against Ghana and they were awful. It will be sad when we fail to beat them

Korea's pretty weak this time around. They (like us) almost failed to qualify.

True, but Shirokov's injury means Russia won't be scoring any goals. Could easily see a 0-0 against Korea.

The defense as expected is really bad. The worrying thing for them is that their captain Koo has been horrible. He plays behind the striker and seriously lacks creativity. The options to replace him are Ji Dong Wong (Hixx's favorite player) and Kim Bo Kyung (cardiff). Kim hasn't particularly been great for the national team and he struggled to make the same impact for Cardiff in the PL as he did last season in the Championship. Everyone knows the striker situation for them is horrible.
Ki should be at his best, but he just came back from his April injury and doesn't look 100%.
Korea can't score right now and they defend like they always do, shitty.
Here's a great article about Japan. A large amount of detail and it's incredibly accurate save for 1 minor error.

lol at England on that chart, They fall in all categories...
Omg how clever hahahahaha
What's funny about a UK site making it all about England?
Yeah was thinking this could be Germany's year but with the recent developments with injuries and stuff I think they may only get to a semi final.
I think a good outside bet to win it might be Portugal if Ronaldo can stay fully fit and be at his best I think they have a good enough team to support him to carry them.

That was like my great morning news!
Hope we'll be able to beat the crap out of you too
(If you play like you played with morocco, it shouldn't be an issue!)you just want some Yaya tears innit
We have no hope, yet a large part of the population will be momentously disappointed if we don't win it.
I have no idea why we're in dark horses though. That suggests an unknown threat, and we're neither of those things.

If you're this salty over a dumb image you're gonna have a heartattack when the WC actually starts.

England? It is an image created by an English website after all. Putting all hopes on a disappointing national team is an English pastime, which is precisely why they're in the dark horse, no nope and high hope categories.

This pretty lady has the power to transform any thread into an ass thread.
But let's not do that
She's lovely.
She's a co-presenter on Countdown in the UK. Not sure if she has anything else on her CV, although she was a part of Strictly Come Dancing last year. <3
Love how us Frenchmen are both in the No Hope and High Hopes areas.
Our team doesn't know half measure: either it fails spectacularly (2002, 2010) or it goes really far (semi-finals in the 1980s, win in 1998, final in 2006...)
But the main objective right now is just getting past the first round. After that we'll see. But I'd love us to knock zee Germans out in the quarter-finals, that would be a sweet revenge for that infamous 1982 game.
How so?

That would be gli Azzurri. We play to win, which is the only thing that matters. It ain't about making neutrals fall in love with you or showing heart. The only thing that matters and taking the trophy back to your homeland.
Thank god.

magic spray paint is awesome. I remember first seeing it in the mls and going "well shit, why doesn't the premier league and WC use this"

Argentina & México have been using this spray for years now, I'm surprised that European leagues havent started using this.
Dark Horses? the third ranked on FIFA?
