I need to sit down and look at the groups first. I don't even know who all qualified.

That's a good point, some of my predictions are probably impossible :lol:

[weasel]

Just had a look at it, bloody hell it's tricky to call some of those groups.
Group H could finish in any order, Group E is Brazil and then whoever is luckiest, Group D is the same but with Argentina winning it, likewise Group C and France. Group A depends on whether Salah is fit or just saying he is so he can play. So hard to call at this stage.

Guesses, and they are guesses, not even educated ones, are below.


1) Winner - Spain
2) Runner up - France
3) Other 2 Semi finalists - Germany, Brazil
4) Other 4 Quarter finalists - Uruguay (losing to france), Belgium (Brazil), Argentina, (Spain), England (Germany).
5) Where England finish - Quarter finals beaten comfortably by ze Germans.
6) Top scorer - Sane :wink:
7) Best goal - a wonder strike from some random no one has heard of. I'll take a Saudi player.
8 ) First manager to resign - Russian boss when they stink the place out. They really are a dreadful team.
9) Any random predictions you want to make - 90% of the pundits on both channels will be ****ing shite, but that's a given. As is saying we will find out in years to come that Russia paid large bribes to get this WC. Not much else springs to mind. I'll have Gareth Southgate to get caught in a "honey trap" saying he thinks some player, let's say Wazza, is a fat has been wanker.

Spain manager sacked, does that count as the first manager sacked. The tournament hasn't even started yet!

 

[edd_jedi]

Wow that's mad, what are they thinking?

 

[theforceuk]

I Know ridiculous, something to do with him going to Madrid? Still stupid.

 

[weasel]

Nah, perfectly justified. He signed a contract extension with Spain last week then signs as Real manager a few days later?! Nothing more than a money grabbing bastard. If I was the Spanish FA I would have refsued to let himtake over at Madrid and held him to his contract.

The guy will fit in well at Madrid, a club full of cunts now manager by another.

Ps, I would also be firing whoever negotiated his contract for the Spanish FA, clearly if he can sign it and a few days later sign another with somone else, they aren't doing their job properly.

 

[edd_jedi]

I completely understand the feeling of betrayal, but surely sacking your manager two days before THE WORLD CUP is really shooting yourself in the foot.

 

[weasel]

Yeah, possibly. Although, I'd argue HE shot the team/country in the footy by doing what he did.
Surely he could have waited 3 weeks until after the WC? That way no one would have cared. Hell, if he'd won the thing he could have got more money from Real. I just don't see what he or Real hoped to achieve by announcing it now. THEY shafted Spain. The Spanish FA have two options, 1) Accept it, do nothing and appear to be a carpet to be walked over. 2) Fire him for being the money grabbing bastard he is, and hope the Spanish press and people rightly give him and Real the abuse they deserve.

Either way his position was totally untenable.

I agree, it does Spain's chances no favours at all, but I don't blame the Spanish FA at all. Bar the idiot who negotiated his contract and left him free to shaft them.
