Judging from the past, teams with less ego and more workrate
without overreliance on a single 'gifted' player will stand a
better chance at the top.
For this WC 2006, my money's on Holland, Argentina and maybe
Portugal. I would have considered Czech Republic too but they
simply have too many injuries and an aging squad without able
replacements.
Teams that look good but are likely tumblers include: England,
Brazil and France.
