Champion of World Cup 2006?

My friend had just ask me that who would I think would win the World Cup 2006? I have no answer. I couldn't even shortlist 2-3 teams that have the potential to capture the Cup. Frankly, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, England and Italy are the teams that could lift the prestigious Cup.

Germany had home advantage and recent promising attacking play. Argentina swift attacks and compact play with match-winners Crespo, Saviola, Riquelme, Messi, Tevez. Brazil's crafty and fearfsome Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Adriano, Kaka and Robinho. England's figthing spirit and the usual heros - Beckham, Gerrand, Rooney and Lampard. Italy's meanest defence and win at-all-cost attitude.

Who could be 100% sure to predict the winner? Only some of the most die-hard fans would insist their team to WIN. Sport Correspondents would jump to HEADLINE Team A to win it after a promising game. The next day, follow by SCREAMING out Team B to win it too after playing a beautful game as well. Many are bandwagon jumpers. But they are some who give insightful view and analysis. Rob Hughes top the list.
