I'm a fan of Italy but I'm really hoping that Argentina and Messi will win the world cup in Brazil, so that Messi proves to the world that he's the best footballer of all time.
Should happen for Germany, considering Ozil, Gotze, Podolski, Schweini, Khedira, Kroos, etc, will be hitting their peak or getting close.... Still Spain are an imperial team.... Count on Iniesta, Fabregas, Silva, Mata, Ramos still in great shape.... Casillas as well.... Xavi and Xabi may be getting a bit old, but they'll still be quite brilliant.... Isco, Munian, Thiago Alcantra, Alba, and Adrian are coming through now; in 18 months they should be doing well.... England haven't got a chance I must say.... No real talent in the mould of gotze's or isco's.... Even Italy's got El Shaarawey.... Not that Italy are serious contenders.... The Netherlands, Portugal, and France are big outsiders as well.... The rest of Eurasia and Africa aren't contenders by any stretch of imagination.... Brazil has some serious talent in its ranks (Lucas Moura, Neymar, Hulk, Oscar), but still aren't like the Brazil of yesteryear.... Argentina posses possibly the greatest player to have ever lived.... He will quite frighteningly be at his peak when the World Cup comes round.... Who knows what effect he may have on proceedings...
Just like last World Cup, I'm tipping Germany for the next, though I'm an English fan. Their team should be even better with the amount of talented youth that will be close to hitting their prime for Brazil; Ozil, Gotze, Khedira, Kroos that Djbeltiburon mentioned and also names like Hummels and ter Stegen. Their attacking football is world class and they've slowly become more and more solid in defence so Brazil looks like the year it will all come together for them

Just keep Mocking me but I guarantee kenya will be brushing shoulders with the likes of Brazil and Spain when it comes to 2014 World Cup.... Anything less than a Semi-Final berth will be considered a disappointing Failure!
