Hey guys, what do you think about Polish team? Do you know any Polish players? Do you give us any chances?

I really want France because my favorite player of this generation will retire afterwards!  | Possible injuries Baros, Rosicky and Nedved? i didnt know that... those 3 are incredible players... |
Currently, these players are just nursing minor injuries. It might be minor, but it might stop them from winning against the US and Italy.

Tie against BOTH Ecuador and Germany? Not a chance. Maybe draw with one of them and a loss. They might beat Costa Rica, but I see them drawing with CR.

Nah - I simply lost all hope in the Polish team a long time ago, and I don't miss it.

I will support my country's national team but I don't believe Brazil will be the champion (maybe the team reaches quarter-finals).
I'd prefer to see (with Brazil out) a "new" champion like Czech Republic or Netherlands or Mexico... |
Is this just a superstitious thing, not wanting to tempt fate, or do the Brazilian people know something we don't? Everyone else thinks you guys are odds-on favourites.........  |
We are concerned that presently to win twice in a row is very difficult... I guess (except for the most fanatics) that people here will be satisfied if we advance until the quarter-finals. 
However, present Brazilian team is better than 2002 team but for a short tournament where you can decide the result via penalty kicks, everything is possible.
For imoeng: the other team in the group is Croatia.
For US fans: USA Soccer Team is improving from Cup to Cup; it's their 5th World Cup in a row. IMO considering the support given to sports, the ethnic diversity and the funds, I believe that USA have great chances to become a football power soon.
For Poland fans: I saw great Polish teams in the 70s... but I confess that I knew few about the present team. If they play like Boniek, Deyna, Lato, Gadocha, etc did in the past then they're serious candidates to be in the semi-finals, at least.

^ yea i think its kinda more pressure if Brazil wants to win twice in a row... But really, if they can do that, Brazil is the real champion of all time...
I heard Indonesia once had been in World Cup, yeeeeeaaaaarrrrsss ago, when i wasnt born yet, is that true?? for people who have lived linger than me...

No World Cups in Indonesia....though surfing's equivalent has been held on Sumatra. Man, wish I were there.
South Korea is my choice....gotta root for the hometown team!

I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

I think that polish team will do a great world cup, they have the potential to acces to the semi finals, but i said the same last world cup and they played really bad. They alwas make a great team work and they are a well balanced (offensive- deffensive) team. ¡¡¡ GO ARGENTINA !!
