This is the sort of thing a typical Argie-hater/English person would say when they are scared.. I know this from experience. I and a lot of other fans had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to shake Diego Maradona and the selections' hand when they came to Sydney in the 1990's for the World cup qualifier against Australia. Needless to say Argentina won, but at the games there were many English fans shouting the same bullshit about the Malvinas and the 'Desaparecidos' of the 1970's, talking political shit just to bring us down because they have nothing else to throw at us.. CHEAP. I also remember as a child attending an endless amount of soccer games in Sydney in the early 1980's(being that my dad played for Independiente Mar del Plata back in the mid to late 60's),again, with Aussies poms shouting out the same shit just to intimidate us.. Holding up huge signs at the entrance to the stadium about the disappearance of thousands of people in Argentina back in the 70's.., about Perontistas and communism and all that other crap that has abosutely nothing to do with Football.. I remember being in the midst of a riot on the streets of Sydney and Argie fans picking up cans and making music and shouting out Argentinian cheers and songs and the police arresting my dad for being hit in the head with a beer bottle, by a group of drunk Aussie and pommie supporters.. calling us wogs and telling us to go back to our own country..lol.... whatever.. And yes i think Argentina has a very good chance of winning. We have numerous players with more potential than hhmm ..lol.. Beckem...lol.. Okay so Maradona messed up.. but has there been anyone like him yet? Has any other player done what Diego did in his prime??? Poms, your are acting scared.. This is a new generation of scared.. a fear that will never leave your blood.. Stop using poilitics for your advantage, this is a sports game, If there is one thing pommy fans lack it is SPORTSMANSHIP, ever heard of it pommies???

I think that they might not win the world cup, but they will make it to the second round, i hope so. because they deserve it, and they worked hard for it.

Please? Why are all of you asking if the US can win the World Cup??? \n\nAsk if they will make it past the group stage.. That's more realistic. And the answer to both is no.

All the team who play in this Cup has chances to win!But some of those teams are better then other.I think Germany has a lot of chances to win the Cup, but there are a lot of other good teams which can win(like Brazil or Italy or England)

No, i don't think they will get to the final. They are just not playing well enough at the moment

NO YOU AREN'T!!! GO SWEEDEN!!! THEY WILL WIN IT ALL!!! They have a great team, and if they can get past England, they will definetly have a chance.\n\nGO SWEEDEN

They will not win the world cup obviously and they're not expected to. Hell it's the first time they've qualified! That alone is a huge achievement for them.\n\nAs for their group, however, I think they might have a chance of making it to the second round. The group could have been much worst for them.\n\nA lot of critics on those shows on FSC etc have said that they are the cinderalla team of the tournament and can possibly ruin someone's second place in group B. Time will tell. \n\nThey have an OK chance of moving on - but winning the WC....noo way. The WC trophy belongs to Brazil.

I think they have the best chance to win the world cup it's true... they're machines! They may choke.... but all teams have those bad games! I think they'll be in an ideal position with Carter on the field!\n\nBut I'd LOVE to see Ireland win! We've had some absolutely shocking seasons and now things are really coming together! Blistering back-line and a scrummage pack that took SA to the sword last weekend! It'll prove a valuable benchmark if we can win all our autumn internationals! \n\nThe other teams fanciable are the Austrailians and maybe France if they're on form on the day! Wales under their new coach may suprise a few!!! England don't have a chance of retaining their world cup..... Austrilia should have won that on the day..... shame he missed that last penalty... then it all would have been so different!

That's forward thinking for you. Can we finish the World Cup 1st ??

We won't win it if people keep on telling us we won't.\n\nEngland have a better chance than they have had before. Brazil are the undoubted favourites and everyone knows they will probably win it again. \n\nWe've got a brilliant midfield and defence, our Goalkeeper's solid as well only possible problem might be our strikers with Rooney injured (which is getting a bit annoying with constant media coverage of it), Owen having fitness problems, Crouch needing a little bit more and Walcott being probably one of the most inexperienced players in the tournament. Having said that Darren Bent could probably have solved the problem and are we taking him NO and why the hell not. Crouch needs that little bit more and he'd be worthy and he's now coming out of his shell a bit.\n\nWe won't allow Argentina to beat us again and same goes to Germany. The Old enemies will be beaten and the ghost of '66' will be laid to rest finally. I think not only are the English public sick of only having won once but everyone else in the UK is sick of hearing about it.\n\nEngland all the way!

yes i think they really do have a chance winning the world cup. their doing well in group play and in the games their scoreing two to three goals, and they have the players to do it with ronaldo and luis figo last chance to win the world they can do it. But they need to continue the way they been playing.\n\np.s. i think figo is under rated

even though many of us want our favourite nations to win.\nI think the team that plays the best football, and cheats (dives etc) the least should win the world cup, but thats not how it works nowadays and brazil are the favourites this year aswell, just like last year and the year before.

It's an obvious but simple answer. The players aren't good enough. They don't compete to a very high standard in their domestic league and are out of their depth when it comes to playing in the World Cup.

lol..I don't think so.\nItaly will not win the world cup, there's better teams.

As much as everyone would like Brazil to win they aren't gonna. Simply because of the fact that they have been struggling lately, in the qualifying round they lost 3 of their 4 matches. They might have the world's most talented team but if they dont pull it together you can see France or Argentina stealing the Fifa world cup this year.

No. Barcelona didn't qualified for the world cup. Came close, though.

Again, yes. But not this year. They are not as strong a team as they were compared to past years. England and Netherlands are strong too. So this world cup will be one of the more exciting ones
