please be open minded.  only place world cup players.  it wont count if you only use players from the last 30 years.  must be players from all world cups.

Maybe the 16 rounds or semi finals but not world cup. \nI think they are not experienced enough to win the world cup. Maybe over 4 years.

Hmm...it's interesting but by that logic, we wouldn't need to spend 30 days on a world cup. Why don't we just hand Brazil (or a supposed winner) instead of watching teams slug it out for the big prize!? :)

Tim Howard definitely should be the number 1. Don't worry though, I think he'll be the starter next world cup.

Ochoa is good but needs experience in world cup tournaments. they are played differently than the mexican tournaments.

wow - that's cool ;)\n\nalthough there is an error in your logics:\n\n- for the winners of 1994, 1986 and 1990 the logics are correct, as you added the year the winner won and the year the winner won the last time\n- but for the winners of 2002 and the possible winner of 2006 there is an error: you should continue your logics by adding the year the team won and the year the team won the last time, so for the 2002 winner the total is (2002+1994 = 3996; 2006+2002 = 4008, so it cannot be brazil)...\n- also, your logics don't work for argentina (1978+0 = 1978), italy (1982+1938 = 3920) and france (1998+0 = 1998)\n\nbut here's something interesting for you (as you seem to be a fan of brazil and i'm a fan of italy, lol):\n\n- brazil took 24 years to win their 4th world cup (1970-1994) and who won the 1982 world cup? - italy...\n\nmay the best team win ;)

My favourate team is Italy because of her 94 World Cup hero, Roberto Baggio. He was play very well even Italy lost the game eventually. He was spirit of the whole team in 94 World Cup. I like Italy because of him.

It's ok, but there should be a salary cap or something so you're restricted in who you can and can't pick--makes it more interesting.  But I'm a little pissed because I had David Villa on the bench and forgot to make him active before Spain's amazing game against the Ukraine, so I didn't get any points for his two goals... :(

I have no idea if it is a record or not.  I found a website that you might be interested in.  It shows different kinds of records set at previous World Cups.  I hope you might find it interesting.

So far only big countries, like England, Germany, Brazil, Argentina, etc.... Many more will be added to this list as the cup continues

Any team that plays with 10 men for so long in a match and does not lose deserve commendation.  In addition, this is their first appearance at the world cup!  Note that England has not been able to beat Sweden for ages with 11 men! I think they did very well not to lose.

32 countries have played in the cup since France 98.  Stadiums vary, but in this one the average is between 40-50 thousand I would say.  Brazil was the pre-tournament favorite, but France knocked them out in the quarterfinals.  No, it is not the 80th world cup, the FIFA World Cup began in 1930, and is held every 4 years, and was not held between 38 and 50 due to WWII.  So there was a tournament in 30, 34, 38, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 70, 74, 78, 82, 86, 90, 94, 98, 02, and now in 06.  So this cup is the 18th.  Regardless of who wins this tournament (because both are previous winners), only seven countries have won the world cup.  Uruguay in 30, Italy in 34, Italy in 38, Uruguay in 50, West Germany in 54, Brazil in 58, Brazil in 62, England in 66, Brazil in 70, West Germany in 74, Argentina in 78, Italy in 82, Argentina in 86, Germany in 90, Brazil in 94, France in 98, Brazil in 02, and either Italy/France in 06.

i really cont know.  if i were klinsman, i would create a new website where everyone in the world could vote on who should be keeper.  kahn did really well against usa (4-1) and lehmann did really poorly against italy (1-4).  well, then again, lehmann is doing really well with arsenal.  i really dont know what klinsman should do

Germany has a weak division. I can see Klose being the leading scorer of the tournament. They already put up four in their first match. They will go far in the cup, and I foresee a lot of goals in their future.

that ranking is absolutely rubbish, how can USA & MEXICO ranked higher that ENGLAND, ITALY or NETHERLANDS. even GERMANY is now ranked 19. FIFA should changed the system immediately.

Good question Mick m8, but I knot it isnt Kleberson Katie coz Brazilians cant win the European Championships!!!        \nIt must be someone from France's 98 world cup winning squad.\nPetit or Barthez (although I dont think any have won La Liga)
