My predictions: Group C: Colombia, Ivory Coast, Japan, Greece
lol.. do you really believe that Ivory Coast might be able to beat Colombia? The Ivorian attack is of very high quality (with players such as Salomon Kalou, Didier Drogba and Gervinho), but their midfield and defence is very weak. The only player with some class in the defence is Kolo Touré... but even he is well past his prime age.

I really hope Greece loses, I've hated them ever since their shitty play when winning the European Championship. Greece might lose against all the other three sides and finish at the rock bottom of Group C. They are not playing at their best right now, and there is a serious over dependence on certain players, such as Giorgios Samaras.

From this group Colombia and Ivory coast will progress in next round because Japan is weak team and Greece in not playing right now

I don't think that Japan is a weak team. They have some very good players (such as Keisuke Honda of A.C. Milan and Shinji Kagawa of Manchester United). It'll be tough fight between Japan and Ivory Coast.

It'll be tough fight between Japan and Ivory Coast. But Ivory coast attack with these players Salomon Kalou, Didier Drogba and Gervinho is much tough for Japan and its very difficult for them to control them

Well... I don't know... right now it might be 50:50 chances to both the teams. And it will be advantage to Japan, if they could quickly acclimatize with the warm and humid Brazilian weather.

^^ yeah kovacic made it, nice!
he's a standard rotation player ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) he's mostly on the bench but he gets invited, one of our hot prospects ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) no problem, he needs more experience listed on world cup teams is good for him, especially he is still young maybe modric can teach him How did Hazard only make it to the Belgium reserves ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Eden Hazard in midfielder maybe another hazard in reserves ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) lol.. do you really believe that Ivory Coast might be able to beat Colombia? The Ivorian attack is of very high quality (with players such as Salomon Kalou, Didier Drogba and Gervinho), but their midfield and defence is very weak.

Samir Nasri omitted from the French squad, as the coach thought that including him would harm the squad harmony. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) People like Patrick Vieira are going ballistic over the decision. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

No. I don't think that omitting Nasri is a mistake. For heaven's sake Nasri is no way the best French player around right now. Adding him to the squad will disrupt the squad harmony, and it will prove to be disastrous.
