    Haha, I've got stacks of old kits man, some of them are ghastly, I have a Brazil top from when I was about 10, before it went all commercialized, made by 'Topper Sports'

    I also have a mad Cameroon top in the colours of a rasta flag, you know when you're 12 you think **** like this is cool.... safe to say I won't fit in either of them like.

    We're gonna need a second team cos we ain't got a cat in hells chance, in the last couple when I was Spain based that was handy, but they are pissing me off now, I think in reality I'd love to see Brazil win it on home turf, simply because of what they have given the game over the years, always think it's funny how the hatred of successful club sides escapes the big nations.

    Chile will be good to watch, Argentina will be strong, Belgium we all know are gonna be tasty.

    I can see an Argentina v Brazil final, and **** me, that will be something.

    I wish I'd kept hold of all my tops, I have a few I've kept, about 5 Real Madrid tops in all along with a load of United ones and a few England tops, an Athletic Bilbao one, Ajax one, and randomly a Liverpool one that I was given by my mate who was in the school of excellence as a kid it was signed by the entire first team at the time, always good to have a bit spare bog roll stashed for emergencies.

    My favourite was my Ajax top from circa 1990 my brother gave me it, had TDK as the sponsor before ABN AMRO took over sponsorship. Had a Kaiser Chiefs one as well from the 90's looked a bit like a Dortmund shirt. Favourite United top was the half green half yellow (gold) from '93 ish with the laces in the collar, the black one that proceeded that was decent as well, still go that one.

    Edit: Definitely want Brazil to win it, even though I can't stand Neymar's face I love the country and the way they play. I'd sooner the Germans won than Spain again though.

    My outsiders are Uruguay.

    Is that who you want to win or think will win Bri, or both?

    I don't think I could ever hope for the Argies to win

    Who I think will win. Would love Belgium to win it. Cracking team they've developed and a wonderful country, divine in spring.

    Draw up the rules then fella, either goal scorer or team to win the WC. I'm in although I done this at work four years ago and I drew Slovenia if I remember correctly so it was never on the cards for me! The goal scorer one might be best, if nobody gets the right one then whoever's got the next top scorer wins.

    Damn right, hope their campaign isn't an anti-climax mind, be a shame to watch them get slapped about after all the hype!

    They don't need to win it this time, They've developed players who'll compete for a generation, Sooner or later they'll win a major tournament imo. I'll have a bet on them as well as the Argies like.

    I think Belgium's issue is gonna be that they AREN'T dark horses, the world is aware of their quality and will prepare appropriately for them.

    Chile, they are the dark horses, I can see some baffled defenders when 7 men are coming at them every attack, they will eith go a lobg way, or crash and burn, there will be no middle ground.

    Colombia will be decent as well going forward, but they are shocking at the back, that'll stump them.
