I'm getting dead excited now, so I thought I'd get everyone's thoughts on who will be the following:

1. Biggest team to flop completely?

2. Golden Boot Winner?

3. Best underdogs?

4. The player to miss the penalty that knocks England out?

5. The player to perform the most theatrical dive? (think Rivaldo in 2002)

6. Team with the sexiest fans?



My answers:

1. Spain, as always

2. van Nistelrooy

3. Serbia and Montenegro (tough group though)

4. Peter Crouch

5. Deco......guarenteed.

6. Tough call between Sweden and Brazil again. I'll go for Sweden.

    I'll probably say Holland. They're squad is looking pretty inexperienced and their group is the hardest. I also expect standard disappointment from Spain and maybe Germany. Italy could struggle due to uncertainty back home.

    2. Golden Boot Winner?

    Robinho

    3. Best underdogs?

    Ivory Coast

    4. The player to miss the penalty that knocks England out?

    Frank Lampard

    5. The player to perform the most theatrical dive? (think Rivaldo in 2002)

    Didier Drogba

    6. Team with the sexiest fans?

    Sweden

    Duh. Brazil.

    I can see Holland failing to get past the group stage, I can't really see Spain doing that well either

    2. Golden Boot Winner?

    I'd say Shevchenko, mainly because he'll run riot against the weaker teams in their group.

    3. Best underdogs?

    Ivory Coast

    4. The player to miss the penalty that knocks England out?

    I don't think it'll take penalties to knock them out.

    5. The player to perform the most theatrical dive? (think Rivaldo in 2002)

    RVN in the last game when Holland need to win to go through.

    6. Team with the sexiest fans?

    Sweden, Czech Republic, Serbia and I'd say South Korea as an outsider ;)
