such a shame that Nigeria didn't qualify!!!!
Unbelievable!!
they realy are my favourite team!
among Argentina!
Being from Belgium I'm so sad to say we failed to qualify!! so I'll go for our neighbours Holland!!
Hup Holland Hup!!

I believe Senegal & Cameroon also failed to qualify

The main problem for Brazil is that they have to much strikers and offensive midfielders

Strikers :
Robinho (Real Madrid)
Ronaldo (Real Madrid)
Adriano (Inter Milan)
Ricardo Oliveira (Betis Sevilla)

Midfielders :
Ronaldinho (Barcelona)
Juninho (Lyon)
Kaka (Milan AC)
Baptista (Real Madrid)
Ricardinho (Santos FC)
Edu (Valencia FC)

Choose 5 among these 10 great players...

Well I see a way you could beat them. Just make a new rule where anybody whos name ends in a "O" isn't allowed to play. :1orglaugh

norway, my country, plays unatractive football. i hope they never make it to the cup. we're playing play-off, and i'm hoping for strong teams, suchs as spain. although we are the ONLY country in the world with more wins than losses against brazil! :nanner:

international football is rotten! when fifa saw that alot of the big countries in europe struggled to qualify, they changed the rules for play-off (for the 2nd place teams), now teams will be seeded.

oh, and denmark will win!!(they where outsiders in euro92, and greece where another outsider in euro04, so it's possible)

The African teams will be :

Tunisia
Ghana
Togo
Angola
Ivory Coast has great players such as Drogba and Kalou :thumbsup:

Hellas is to Greece what Spain is to España, for example : just a translation...

I feel sorry for Australia - instead of automatic qualification, they have to go through a play-off with the South American team that finishes fifth in their group - which could be either Uruguay, Colombia or Chile....

Don't know to much about futbol, but guess I'll be a homer go USA!!

Alright Portugal Qualified yesterday for the World Cup...Next stop World Cup Champions!

 

[Porn_adicct]

If brazil wins the cup again they get it forever right?

I think they will win again, only hope someone at their federation takes care of the cup this time, and doesn't finish melted like the jules rimet cup.

Latest - Turkey has got a play-off spot in European Group Two - however this means that Greece and Denmark are out.........

Long life for the queen!!!

I support England to win the cup... but also I hope USA make a good job in the world cup... they are really going in the good path, they spect to be the world champion in 2010 and it seems that they are going to do it.

I would like to see the USA win but thats not going to happen unless all the other teams vanish off the face of the earth.

 

[Feelie]

Much better performance from England tonight but I'm still not sure we will win, Holland, Italy, Brazil and Argentina all look in much better shape.

I actually voted fro Holland, Van Basten has done superb work and has got Holland playing with great team spirit as highlighted by the 2-0 win against the Chechs away at the weekend.

just a warning to all teams...BEWARE of Sweden
