Decline of the football greats

[strictlybroadband]

I don't remember previous world cups being quite like this. It's like all the teams you'd expect to play well have come down with some terrible disease in the past few years (Argentina excepted).

France, Korea, Brazil and others are performing badly. Then we have some good performances from the likes of Spain, Ghana and Trinidad(!)

England manage to find a path somewhere between the two - at least one team's reliable.

As far as I can see its Argentina all the way. Plus the African countries have shown how close they are to Europe.

Italy, Germany, England, France etc etc are all a joke so far

The Argies have played well in just ONE of their two games, when they have played the Netherlands then we will know.

Right now its anyones cup, the bloody Aussies have supprised me the most, if they get through I think they will cause an upset.

Korea????

A load of dodgy ref decisions in one world cup does not make a team great.
