SOCCERROO FOX Posted 11 May 2010 Posted 11 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Brazil just too much quality and will adapt to the conditions better. Who's your Roughie? Paraguay I don't think they will win but could fluke a semi's spot. Top team that will struggle? Argentinia Golden Boot Winner? David Villa or Rooney Player of the Tournament? If Holland go deep enough i would say Robben.

The Doctor Posted 11 May 2010 Posted 11 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Spain - them and brazil are the best teams in the WC by a distance Who's your Roughie? Probably Mexico - they usually do okay but i can see them nicking quaters or even semis. I think Honduras & Ivory Coast to suprise a few though (mainly be reaching the knockout rounds ahead of much stronger teams in Switzerland & Chile & Portugal Top team that will struggle? Are france still a top team? if not then italy Golden Boot Winner? David Villa Player of the Tournament? difficult - Xavi & Iniesta are quality but i think both are injured - Iniesta if he's fit otherwise probably Rooney.
FoxyPV Posted 11 May 2010 Posted 11 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Probably Brazil (with a performance a la 1994) but would like to see Spain win Who's your Roughie? An African team (I know they are not technically outsiders but the last time an African team did well was 2002 I think) Top team that will struggle? Hopefully England but probably France Golden Boot Winner? David Villa/ Rooney Player of the Tournament? Messi if Argentina get far enough
SirBlueFoxington Posted 11 May 2010 Posted 11 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Brazil,think they are quality, and when it comes to the world Cup they always shine. Who's your Roughie? Serbia. Don't know why, just think they will surprise a few. Top team that will struggle? Portugal or France to go out in the group stage. Golden Boot Winner? David Villa or Luis Fabiano Player of the Tournament? Frank Lampard
dandannieldanok Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Germany Who's your Roughie? Slovenia Top team that will struggle? Netherlands Golden Boot Winner? Klose Player of the Tournament? Klose
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 I don't think Holland will struggle too much, at least if qualification is anything to go by. Stranger things have happened though, I suppose. Hard to see past Brazil or Spain.
StanSP Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Spain. I think even with a couple of their key men injured - Xavi and Torres - they can still pull off a solid performance throughout the competition. Who's your Roughie? Chile. Team to watch. Top team that will struggle? Argentina or Germany. A lot of the attention will be put on Messi. He'll do alright, but might be let down by the team as a whole. Golden Boot Winner? David Villa. He'll score about 5 against Honduras in their first game. Player of the Tournament? Luis Fabiano or Villa.
Edmund Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Spain, Fabregas can't even get into their starting eleven. They have strength in depth plus Villa and Torres are probably the deadliest partnership in the tournament. Who's your Roughie? Portugal, they have some great individual players Top team that will struggle? England, to much pressure on the players from our fans who think we are world beaters. Golden Boot Winner? David Villa or Torres Player of the Tournament? Ronaldo
Samilktray Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? England. Because I'm stupidly optimistic and hopeful Who's your Roughie? Honduras or Ivory Coast. Top team that will struggle? Hopefully Germany, but realistically France or Portugal, maybe Argentina. Golden Boot Winner? Rooney or Robinho. Player of the Tournament? Frank Lampard.
purpleronnie Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Spain, because they are the best team. Who's your Roughie? USA Top team that will struggle? England - no strength in depth, lack of mental strength. Golden Boot Winner? David Villa or Torres. Player of the Tournament? Torres.
ScouseFox Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Brazil, Spain will bottle it I reckon. Who's your Roughie? USA, quite easy group. Top team that will struggle? Portugal, think they'll get done in the groups by Ivory Coast. Golden Boot Winner? Fabiano. Player of the Tournament? Torres.
BoneDog Posted 12 May 2010 Posted 12 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? ........Netherlands - just got a feeling Who's your Roughie? ........USA Top team that will struggle? ........Spain Golden Boot Winner? ........Van Persie, Gilardino, Fabiano and Rossi in that order. Player of the Tournament? ........Robben
Gomez32 Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? ........Argentina (well i thought so until they left Cambiasso and Zanetti out the squad) Youve just got to look at the likes of messi, higuain, tevez, aguero, Lucho Gonzales, Palacio, too much quality going forward. Who's your Roughie? ........Ivory Coast Top team that will struggle? ........Spain... i want to see them do well, like others have said, so much depth to the squad, but if they make it through their group they have to play brazil, ivory coast or portugal. Golden Boot Winner? ........Higuain Player of the Tournament? ........ Peter Crouch Hopefully..
StanSP Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 What's a 'roughie?' I presumed it was underdog or outsider who might do well. If it's an Australian word, I've learnt 2. Roughie and sook.
Guest Bilo Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Heart says England, head says Brazil. Quality all over the field and seem to thrive on expectation. Who's your Roughie? Ivory Coast. This tournament is tailor made for an African side to do well and they look the strongest with the likes of Drogba, Kalou and Toure. Top team that will struggle? I think Ivory Coast will knock out Portugal at the group stage and Argentina will struggle to reach the last eight. Golden Boot Winner? Rooney as I think England will go far in this tournament. Player of the Tournament? Kaka will be vital for Brazil to succeed here.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 13 May 2010 Author Posted 13 May 2010 What's a 'roughie?' Rough chance, roughie. I'm sure it's not an Aussie term.
The Doctor Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Spain, Fabregas can't even get into their starting eleven. They have strength in depth plus Villa and Torres are probably the deadliest partnership in the tournament. Who's your Roughie? Portugal, they have some great individual players Top team that will struggle? England, to much pressure on the players from our fans who think we are world beaters. Golden Boot Winner? David Villa or Torres Player of the Tournament? Ronaldo i thought he was out injured? seem to recall something about an operation a couple of weeks ago.
dandannieldanok Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 i thought he was out injured? seem to recall something about an operation a couple of weeks ago. He is injured but is "recovering very positively" and has been named in Spain's 30.
Tilley Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 One thing I want from this World Cup my friends and that is England not being involved in a penalty shoot out.
Edmund Posted 13 May 2010 Posted 13 May 2010 One thing I want from this World Cup my friends and that is England not being involved in a penalty shoot out. No shoot out can make me feel worst than last nights. Even if it's in the final. Southgates miss was minor compared to last nights shocker.
Northants Fox 3 Posted 18 May 2010 Posted 18 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Brazil just too much quality and will adapt to the conditions better. Who's your Roughie? Paraguay I don't think they will win but could fluke a semi's spot. Top team that will struggle? Argentinia Golden Boot Winner? David Villa or Rooney Player of the Tournament? If Holland go deep enough i would say Robben. Who's going to win and why? Brazil the best team by a mile Who's your roughie? Italy fairly good chance i think Top team that will struggle? This is a difficult choice maybe Spain Golden Boot winner? David Villa or Miroslav Klose Player of the Tournament? again a difficult choice but i'll go will Franck Ribery
Sparky Posted 18 May 2010 Posted 18 May 2010 Who's going to win and why? Spain, monkey off thier back now they won a tournament, Technically the best side IMO Who's your Roughie? Ivory Coast Top team that will struggle? France Golden Boot Winner? David Villa Player of the Tournament? Wesley Snijeder
