What makes you think this?

The players and coaching, along with the fact everyone expects Italy to go far.

 

[Salvo]

Australia will win it.

 

[Bjerknes]

Only in your nightmares.

Australia will win it.

I already put $1500 on us

Man, my wife and I wanted to go but couldn't get tickets. We're still thinking of going, but the whole hotel/apartment situation in Rio right now is insane (as in 300 Euros a night for a place where you won't get mugged by gangs).

Still trying to make it work, though...

Accommodation is really a nightmare. Prices are unbelievable. They think they're renting you Neymar's left nut.

I knew this one was going to be the most expensive World Cup, but I didn't thought it would be like that

I think England will beat this Italy rather easily for a change.

I could actually see this happen you know. With Italy, you never know what's gonna happen, and while England are awful, Italy finished last in a group consisting with the strongest opponent being fucking Slovakia not so long ago.

 

[Gian]

That was four years ago. Italy were in the final of the EC and were semi-finalist in the CC after that. Really nice of you to disregard those facts

Buffon
De Sciglio Barzagli Chiellini Criscito
Marchisio Pirlo De Rossi
Montolivio
Balotelli Osvaldo​

Worry about your own team.

I know, but I said that everything could happen. They could go on to the final as well, all I was saying is that I wouldn't be surprised to see them lose against England.

 

[Bjerknes]

Worry about your own team.

Don't worry, I already have. Be happy you don't have a group like that one.

Italy will lose to England in my view, but will probably finish second and head to the quarters.

Selective memory right here

Selective memory right here

Well, I'd say everyone else has selective memory, only remembering the success 2 years ago, and forgetting everything else .

I'm an avid Azzurri fan btw, nothing would make me happier than them winning concerning the WC. Just stating the possibilites, because I feeld their ability is a bit overrated here.

Seriously, just read what you're writing here.

What's so bad about it?

 

[Hængebøffer]

Brazil, Spain, Germany and Argentina will be fighting for the final spot.

 

[JBF]

I can see Uruguay doing really good this time too. They'll go far.

 

[Hængebøffer]

Not if they played like they did in the CC.
