I think you underrated Portugal and Netherlands, they can do much.

Dancin' with myself...
My toughts are:
Group A
France and Mexico pass (france,mexico, uruguay, s.africa)
Group B
Argentina rapes them all..2nd maybe Greece (argentina,greece,korea r., nigeria)
Group C
England or USA 1st, this year they are strong :O, vice versa... (england/USA,slovenia, algeria)
Group D
Germany another rape...2nd australia/serb, cant say... (germany,serb in my opinion, australia, ghana)
Group E
Hard Group, cant say who's 1st/2nd (netherlands or denmark), 3rd Japan(can have surprises) and Cameroon ( shrimp in my language lol...)
Group F
easy group i think... (italy,slovakia,paraguay, new zealand)
Group G
Best Group ofc there is Portugal , but I fear cote d'ivor is strong... anyway (brazil ofc lol..., portugal!!!, cote d'ivor, korea
Group H
another easy group (spain-i think it wins this cup, chile/switzerland, honduras)
THESE ARE JUST MY TOUGHTS
I didn't say they can't but I don't trust they will.
Especially Portugal, they pretty much sucked group stage, didn't impress against Bosnia (Spain scored 5 vs Bosnia), and now this friendly, and yeah I think its friendly, they were trying something, missed some players etc. But any PT team should beat Cape Verdo.
i like spain, and i think they will play the final, against who?? idk and idc...
I think that Spain is overrated, strong defense like Italian or English and they are screwed.

Overrated or not, they are European Champions, they had flawless group stage, and they have most complete team at the moment.
PS: they've beaten England in a friendly, quite easily some time ago.
Group A: France/Uruguay
Group B: Argentina/Nigeria
Group C: England/Usa
Group D: Germany/Australia
Group E: Netherlands/Denmark
Group F: Italy/Paraguay
Group G: Brasil/Cote d'ivor
Group H: Spain/Chile
Imo Portugal won't pass, there's a chance to Spain stay too.
Sorry Nery, but if Portugal was strong enough they wouldn't invite 3 brazilians (Pepe/Liedson/Deco).
If Cote d'ivor wins the 1st game against Portugal, you can count Portugal out of cup.
About Spain Group, i watched some games from Chile and they're playing very good. Switzerland played very well in the last world cup so.. as the same way France got eliminated in Group's fase in 2002 (After they have won the 1998's cup), there is a chance for Spain to lose too.
Absolutely no chance spain loses @ group stage.
and sry for telling u but deco and pepe have been in our team for a very long time, and at its prime deco would be on br 1st team 100%, while pepe, it's obvious... he's much better than luizao. having said that I agree - I'd rather not have any non PT player in my team. But well, we're not the only team with 'foreign' players... far from that.
btw, you brazilians should get used to the idea of not going very deep in this wc, you're team is good, but it's not a superteam like brazil used to be...

Obviously Deco is better than Julio Baptista, but not better than Ganso/Ronaldinho that are out of our team cause Dunga is stupid. So, you're saying that Deco would be in 1st team, instead of Kaka ?! Sure.
Yes, but Luisão is not in 1st team.
Pepe is better than Lucio/Juan/Thiago Silva ?
Yes, because Dunga is an idiot !
Anyway, even without a super team, all of you are afraid of facing our team.
