If I was goin to have a bet on top scorer, I think i'd maybe go with David Villa. Maybe Argentinas strikers could be in with a shout. Thay have some quality up top with Milito in fine form, Aguero, Higuain and Tevez. Thats a formidable front line. Miroslav Klose generally is a good tournament goalscorer.
I also think based on being in the same qualifying group as the Dutch and seein them firsthand dismantle us in Amsterdam that they will score goals so id say Van Persie and Robben could get their fair share. Player of the tournament, well thats a bit more of a difficult one. Always surprise packeges come up. If I have to go on record for one, since I think Brazil will win the cup, i'm going to say Felipe Melo. |

I got my teams for my pool.
Everyone gets a 1, 2, 3 and 4 from random groups. All groups have the teams ranked 1 - 4... I have Spain, Cameroon, Ivory Coast and North Korea. I like my foursome. |

All the 1's are drawn...all the 2's...3's...etc. Every group has each team ranked 1 - 4, and everyone gets a 1, 2, 3 and a 4. It's a good time. The guy with the World Cup winner gets half the pot, the guy whose group scores the most total goals gets the other half...last time it was points, but this time it is goals to make the 4 seeds have some value. |

I think if the Dutch are gonna surprise some folks at this cup. They will probably have a big game against Brazil in a KO stage, but I think if they can get past them, they have a good chance.

Nice. Sounds like a good competition. Good luck. |

Pirlo is also injured and the odds of him playing the World Cup are said to be very small.
Rio Ferdinand as well is probably out.. HUGE blow for England there. |
