Fabiano, having the worst season of his life.
Melo? does he even start anymore in Italy?
Kaka is the only one of that bunch that will cause anybody any trouble.
Holland wont face Brazil. why? because Portugal will win the group. And i'm shocked that you pick Spain to win, lest we forget the thumping they took at the hands of the good ol' US of A? Spain are bigger underachievers on the world stage than England.

Say what you want about the Brazilians, but they come to play when comes to worlds grandest stage. They have FIVE trophies to show for that.
Saying Portugal is going to win the group is one hell of a long shot. I see them not getting past the group. The Ivory Coast will handle Portugal, just wait and see.
I've said this before, Spain is a different team then in thier old choking days. The Spanish team is arguably the most complete in the world. A solid defense, probably the best midfield in the world, and the deadly strikers that Spain have is why I pick them.
Up until the Euro in 2008 they had nothing in their trophy case. They didn't underachieve then and they won't now. The loss to the Yanks was exactly what happens when you play bad against a team that's rolling. Its unfortunate that the US had to stop rolling in the 2nd half against Brazil. But that's what Brazil does...WIN!
Holland has just as many world cup trophies as Spain has. The only difference is that the Spaniards will have one at the end of the tournament.
