Provisional squad from Germany:

Goalkeepers: Manuel Neuer, Roman Weidenfeller, Ron–Robert Zieler
Defenders: Jerome Boateng, Erik Durm, Kevin Grosskreutz, Benedikt Höwedes, Mats Hummels, Marcell Jansen, Philipp Lahm, Per Mertesacker, Shkodran Mustafi, Marcel Schmelzer

Strikers: Miroslav Klose, Kevin Volland

nice squad, especially in midfielder
but where's the forward? klose is old, and volland is too young i think
maybe they will put Andre Schürrle or Thomas Müller as forward

Brazil wont win. My money is on Spain.

Germany, Sprain and Brazil are 3 best teams I am sure this world cup is not going in any other country

This is WC surprises can happen so dont be surprised when some other team won wc. Italy or Portugal perhaps?

[saif92]

Surprise can happen in any event and specially in soccer football because all 32 teams here for win and they will do their best for this currently we cannot predict about any team but we  have some good talent like Italy, Portugal, Germany, Spain Argentina and Brazil

Well.. this time they have got some really good players, such as Januzaj... so who knows?

not aware with the options of Brazil and Argentina to meet but believe that its gonna be Messi's world cup
and the game against Brazil will be hes game.

If Brazil and Argentina wins all their group matches, and the knock-out matches after that, then they will meet only in the final.

[uknowme]

I think Brazil will win.

[azguard]

We have less then 30 days to start wc. Yea Brazil is favorite playing on home ground, but some others will involve in this some Europe teams n Argentina.

[pikumie]

I hope brazil will win.
