I think they will, mind you i've got Serbia (in Germanys group) to get to the semi finals





Can't right off the German's just yet

Can't believe it took that long to get this thread's first World Cup cliche!



Still a while before we have the "lottery of penalties" though





In all seriousness, I wouldn't be counting much on Miroslav Klose either. One goal from eighteen Bundesliga appearances isn't the sort of form you want to be taking into a World Cup.

In my opinion, with Ballack out, Germany's hope lie with Mesut Ozil. He's have to pull the strings in the midfield Germany's best player injured. If he fires then Germany will do alright, if not they won't get out of their group.

Ratio abit like Heskey's





More likely Klose will find from in South Africa

Id kick Dawson, Carragher, Warnock, Huddlestone, Walcott, Carrick and Lennon out of the squad.



Start with



James



G.Johnson

Ferdinand

JT

A.Cole



Milner

Barry

Lampard

Gerrard



Rooney

Crouch

And take Wright-Phillips? Are you serious?

No World Cup totty thread yet?

I dont really rate him either but out of the 2 i prefer SWP.

i think beckham on one leg would do a better job then SWP

Me too. Out of the 4 right-sided wingers we've named (I suspect Johnson is in Capello's mind for the left), both Walcott and Wright-Phillips offer poor end product 9 times out of 10. Lennon has been the form player despite his injury this season, and Milner would have been my first pick on last year's form, but he's spent most of this season in a central role.

Walcott SWP and Lennon have no end product.Out the 3 i prefer SWP.

I suspect you've not seen him play much this season, as Lennon has had. As evidenced by him being in the top assists this season despite missing 4 months out injured. His delivery really has improved IMO.
