Country of choice for anyone still wanting to cheer on a team in South Africa or just a sign of desperation ?

Ghana winning the WC will make me richer to the tune of £400, so abso-f***ing-lutely will I be supporting them from here on in

I'm supporting Ghana and Japan now - two countries who have shown how football should be played - and with players who seem to have genuine pride in playing for their country.

Definitely want Ghana to do well, Asamoah Gyan is one of the stars of the World Cup, way better than Rooney, mind you, which strikers haven't been?...

Holland are my other choice largely because I've had a little wager on them.

They get my support but I fear Uruguay will be too wily for them.

Also Andre Ayew is missing through suspension and he's been superb so far.

in that order.

I wouldn't be upset for the Germans or Argies to win either, because they're both playing great football - I'd rather either of them won ahead of bloody Brazil.

In order Argentina, Uruguay, Chile / Brazil - South America all the way for me.... I explained why in a previous post but got squarely abused for being pretentious and then dismissed as an ex-pat so I think I'll leave it there.

I will mostly be supporting the Argies. It does make me feel a bit dirty but I put money on them before the start and they are a perfect team for the non committed, poor defence and brilliant attack, you feel even if the opponents score three they will score 4, 5 or 6.

I have also warmed slightly to Maradona, again I never in my life thought I would say that. Its a bit like saying "Norman Whiteside isn't a complete :tosser:"

Holland. If the African teams are scoring goals for the whole of africa, or are representing Africas dreams, then I am picking a country based on ethnic and geographic proximity too.
