[Macca_]

Ok, who plonked Henry for top scorer? :lol:

He's come in from 14's to 13's today with Centrebet.

 

[willvillain]

Well I wouldn't go that far

Both sides have plenty of quality. Should they both top their group (which I think they will) they don't meet till the final. The Czechs are number 2 in the world whilst the Portugese were impressive at the 2004 European Championships.

I don't rate Portugal. They always seem to do worse than what I expect (aside from of course the Euro Champs, but they were at home...)

 

[Cletus]

I put $10 on France to win the whole thing. Brazil seem a bit short at the moment and France look ok. Just as long as they score more goals than they did last time:lol: .
Brazil have got some guy called 'Fred', I don't think they can win it with that sort of name. Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Fred. Somehow it just doesn't seem right.

 

[Macca_]
