FIFA World Cup Football 2014 Discussion Thread

[quote=Khazem]Enough with the silly AMA's, let's get some football hype up in here! Today is the day and I know I've been looking forward to this day cause my home country, Belgium, was finally able to qualify again and actually has a pretty darn decent team. c: Anyway, who do you guys expect to win this year? Is Brazil going to take their home advantage and reclaim their former glory? Is Spain going to continue their spree of dominance? Is Germany finally going to realize their potential and take home the win? Or are we looking at an underdog story here? and yeah I'm gonna call it football and not soccer, everyone in the world except for you murican guys call it football, deal with it.[/quote]

[quote=Meiyjhe]I think the Netherlands will win cuz nationalism! Woohoo![/quote]

[quote=TROLLing1999]Greece(my home country) all the way...but I don't even think we will get past the group stage even if Mourinho says so. I 'd love to see a Brazil-Argentina final and actually it is possible if both make it until there.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje][quote=Meiyjhe] I think the Netherlands will win cuz nationalism! Woohoo! [/quote] I'm a bit more pessimistic lol. I don't even see us passing the group stage with Van Gaal's [i]ingenious[/i] 5-3-2.[/quote]

[quote=PoisonIvy]I live in Brazil and people here aren't even excited like before tbh Streets aren't painted, there are protests and strikes everywhere.[/quote]

[quote=mastrer1000]It should be pretty hard not to get out of group stage. The german group looks pretty easy(like every year lol)[/quote]

[quote=Janitsu]why does the logo look like captain Picard facepalming?[/quote]

[quote=mastrer1000]we still won every game anyway, so it was easy :D [h5]I don't really know anything about football[/h5][/quote]

[quote=Wayne3100]Rooting for England, but this group will be a difficult one. Italy, Uruguay and Costa Rica are tough teams to face and I'm honestly not sure whether England will make it out of that group. I want to say that they will, but I'm just not sure. A good start vs Italy on Saturday is absolutely vital for them, that's for sure. [i]Should[/i] they make it out of the group stage, they face the #1 or #2 from Group C (Japan/Colombia/Greece/Ivory Coast) which honestly shouldn't be much trouble, so at least they have that going for them. Overall I'm not expecting them to win or even reach the finals though, my money's on Germany.[/quote]
