None of those 10 teams will win.

Where are Ireland?

Ireland play brilliantly against the bigger teams but against the 'weaker' nations they stumble now and again.

They play best under pressure and when they're the underdog - you should have included them in your poll.

Ireland is crap at football, we can't even beat Israel. Smashing country though, I love its countryside. Rooting for England this year, even though it is not very patriotic of me to do so.

Have you ever watched a football match in which Ireland played? I wouldn't say they are crap at all. The rest of the country, on the other hand..

Brazil and Spain will play the finals, England (although I love them) will get to quarters then get knocked out as usual LOL.

And the rest plain suck ( comment made to ruffle feathers LOL )

I'm going for the Netherlands to take it, but there group is probably one of the hardest, so if they don't make it then i'm going for England.

My dream would be USA taking it all and it not even being the top story on SportCenter. That would be the coolest thing ever.

An underdog will win it. The gap has closed, it's no longer about the best talent, it's about who plays the best system and capitalizes on opportunities.

It would be the best thing ever... I'd sacrifice Italy for USA to win, seriously. I think that they are doing better and better every year... Try to imagine USA among the top 10 soccer nations in the world just 5 years ago! I think that they'll reach the quarters at least.

I don't think so, but I'm interested to know what you exactly mean.
