    Germany all the way for me.

    Have them on the office sweep and have a wee bet on them to win with Klose as the top scorer (although that's unlikely).

    Also got a bet on Argentina to win with Messi as the top scorer so wouldn't be unhappy if they won it.

    Ahead of the shower it looks like Redknap has started a bit of a storm too.

    The accusations Redknap is making against certain players also applies to most managers when it suits their clubs.

    Thanks Biker*Chick! I love this thread! I am not really interested in who wins the cup, now that England are out, BUT I am still watching the matches as I love to pick out the fit footballers and follow them around the pitch to see beads of sweat rolling down their tanned foreheads and watch how the breeze catches their shorts causing them to wrap around their inner thighs and.....oh dear I feel a funny turn coming on so off to crush some ice!.....dizzy-smiley-emoticon-1.gif
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    You may find it more interesting to watch it online as BBC have player cam...just focussing on one player every 5 mins or so! :D

    I tend to agree with this.

    Clubs wouldn't want their star players injuring themselves in the World Cup or Euros and messing up the new season.
