To be honest, without Scotland I lose interest until the latter stages, i havent even thought about the WC in the last few months, its the same for Champs League, I even forgot about Europa final last nite and thats f,d up. Maybe its the saturation of the game, ah dont know, but hopefully there will be a couple of big games to keep me interested.

Spain
France
Portugal
In that order IMO.
Egypt could surprise a few people if Salah performs. Not many teams will have someone as much of a goal threat.
England’s midfield will have them home by the last 16. Out the group and then knocked out by an average-good team after that.

Egypt...9-0-1 formation (more progressive line up to Leveins preferred 10-0-0 style) could be interesting as they have Mo Sallah upfront..

RE England's opponents should they get out their group this time;
If England progress from their group in Russia they will face one of Poland, Senegal, Colombia and Japan in the first knockout round. Germany and Brazil are among their possible last-eight opponents.
An "Easy tie" last 16 awaits according to Terry the Butcher. Wouldn't consider Poland or Colombia to be easy personally.

If he is I wonder if it’ll be too much for him after a long season, if he’s not I fear they could struggle to replace him.
Such an influential player there’s bound to be a period of transition when it comes to replacing him, even if he retired from international football a year ago that’s still be my concern about Spain.

Hoping for a Germany v France final. I'll be in Brittany for a family gathering with half and half French/German family members. Has the potential to set the cat amongst the pigeons and make an otherwise boring in law family holiday interesting.

Also struggling to get excited but I'd out my money on France to win it. Would really like to see an African team do well.

No surprise to hear Butcher slavering on about England. The man knows absolutely nothing about football if he thinks Colombia would be an easy game for them. I'll be backing James Rodriguez and Colombia should they meet in the last 16.

Would like Germany to do it, but something tells me it won't happen - France or Spain then - can't see any SA team making it to the final ... be good to see a decent run by the English team - hope Russia don't get out of the Group stage ...

Well with Scotland and Italy not there - and no Wales either - my options for supporting a country I'm connected to are almost entirely depleted. Almost.
I belatedly realised that Peru are there! And since my Dad was born in Peru I could technically be capped as a Peruvian which is good enough for me. Any country that can produce Teofilo Cubillas has to have something going for it.
I'll happily take Belgium, France or England as winners - as long as it's not any of Brazil, Spain or Germany. Realistically its all about strength in depth, some magic and above all tournament mentality - so I can't see past Germany to win it.

Reading into it a bit yesterday and Mexico could be a surprise package.
Found a Telegraph Fantasy Football and a McDonalds one. Thinking of the Telegrpah one. Got a day off tomorrow due to school holidays, think I’ll put YouTube on the telly for the kids and spend my time productively studying for this.

Think Germany could be the first to do back to back World Cups since Brazil in 1962. France squad is possibly the best but not sure about the temperament. Brazil strong too but think Russia favours a European nation.
