First of all, there will be many Cathedral absentees including the Oranje, USA, Ghana, Ivory Coast etc

Further, this year's world Cup wouldn't boast of many top notch players unlike some previous world cups. Take Messi and Ronaldo out and all the other players are just ordinary.

The hosts Russia aren't a real footballing country.

Many national teams including Brazil and Argentina aren't in the best of shapes. Virtually every team is struggling.

There are very few star studded teams, the African reps the worst of all

In short, this year's world Cup is going to be very ordinary and easy to win by any serious team including even the African teams.

My opinion!

You are just mentioning names based on their rich history but what of their current teams and even individual players... Can you compare this Spain team to the 2009-2011 Spain team? France? As for Argentina even enyimba FC can beat them and by the way I don't consider portugal a Cathedral team.

WOW! Because of their rich history? Their recent stats and players point to the fact that one of them will lift the trophy. Dont judge argentina based on a friendly match. All of these teams have strong pedigree. Germany, spain, france and brazil have so much quality to choose from. This spanish team may be different from 08-2012 but overall they possess greater indepth strenth. FC Eyimba my foot!

Well quality Is relative

If the above are yours reasons then you are wrong. Apart from Italy and Netherlands I don't see any other strong contenders that would be missed.

Enyimba FC? Interesting! I wouldn't take this to be a mere exaggeration;perhaps it's more of a brain-fart. Honestly speaking,you sound too unbelievable. I guess the basis for your assertion isn't unconnected with the 6-1 loss to spain in a friendly in which Argentina played without Messi, Aguero,Ever Banega,Di Maria and other remarkable stars. Or maybe from the qualification struggles. Believe it or not,they've got quality both on pedigree and present status.

peace in this house, now i want to say that no team will win this cup.

I talk am way back

Very easy to win
