Anybody but Germany really.

I quite like Argentina this year, and the Brazilians leave me a little cold after all the acting that led up to that red card.

Big Foot want Brazil to get to the final to give Fabiano the most chance of winning golden boot


Semi-final would do it...

Dutch for me, heart and wallet reasons.

"Who do you want to win now?"

"Uruguay haven't won it for years."

That answer isn't even related to the question.

Totally the opposite for me. Anyone but Brazil would suit me.

People say we are arrogant, but Brazil were holding their fingers up, counting to 6 (for their sixth win) after scoring the opening goal in a group match.

Argentina for the attacking football they are playing and for Maradona who is one of the few charismatic individuals at the party.

The answer doesn't say that though, it just states the fact that Uruguay haven't won it for years.

... but that's implied in the statement, SLAMMED.

I'd like Spain to win because I once fell in love with Fernando Torres... nothing to do with the honour of Europe... although tbh, he's hardly been making an impact on the pitch apart from when he comes off it. :roll:

Financially Spain or Holland would be handy, but will generally support the underdog in any given contest.
