Oh, and if I may make a ghost tweet for Didier Deschamps?:

Fuck you, Nasri, and the girlfriend you rode in on.

If England and Italy go out in the group stages, this is the best world cup ever.

It will happen, they both are garbage footballing nations. If we can make it through past the 16's it will obviously be the best Cup ever.

Heart says draw

Head says Uruguay thrashing

Suarez

 

[Salvo]

I don't see us getting pumped, I just see a late winner. I think a back 3 might be a good choice.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

Yeah a back 3 might be a good option, but who plays as RWB? Can Candreva play there?

What a plonker

 

[Salvo]

That is who I'd play there. Darmian left. Pirlo, DDR and Marchisio central. Partner Balo with Cerci or Immobile.

 

[ZoSo]

Does Italy go through in all cases of a draw?

 

[Vlad]

yup

 

[ZoSo]

nice. hopefully england will beat costa rica

 

[Martin]

nice. hopefully england will beat costa rica

england? beat? you've come to the wrong place

 

[Salvo]

nice. hopefully england will beat costa rica

For us to qualify first we would need England to beat Costa rica 3-0 and we would have to win 3-1.

He meant (American) football obviously

 

[GrecoJuve]

If Greece take the win against Ivory Coast, will play against Costa Rica. Oh my god, hope to be as lucky as whe were in the previous competitions.

Wow, I did not expect Costa Rica to beat Italy, a draw maybe but a win was surprising. Not so much though when thinking back how Italy play in major tournaments especially at the group stages. I thought they looked a better side when they beat England in that manner but then again it was just England and it was wonderful to see them officially leaving the tournament now by the hands of a team that they have not played yet.

Things will be tricky against Uruguay, I expect Italy to play for a draw as usual and as usual they will fail because it is the worst approach ever. Uruguay will slaughter them if they play the waiting game and as I said a couple of days back, it will be by the hands of Cavani.

As for France, DOUBLE WOW!! I am really impressed, the team is mostly young with little experience but Deschamps is showing that he was a key player in 1998 and he is now translating it on the field from the sideline. I would be extremely happy if they go and win the whole thing.

So far my verdict for the best performance has been

Chile, Uruguay, Costa Rica from this side of the lake vs Germany, Holland, France from the other side.
