[Football] WC2022 Predictions

[Mellotron]

Come on then. I want the following;

Winners -
How far will England get -
Dark Horses - (ie overachieving "smaller" side)
Shock Exit - (big side out earlier than expected)
Golden Boot -

My answers

Winners - Brazil
How far will England get - Quarter Finals - not a horrendous showing overall, but just a little flat and out of ideas when it comes to it.
Dark Horses - Denmark to get to at least Semis.
Shock Exit - France. Overdue an implosion and have a lot of problems both on and off field.
Golden Boot - I did think Benzema but he looks injured. I'll go Neymar. Kane isn't a bad shout as he will score the majority of our goals, we are a side who look to win penalties and score from set pieces.

If we didn't think it was a corrupt world cup before, we surely would if Italy won it!

[Durlston]

Winners -  Argentina.
Quarter-finals for England.
 Serbia to surprise everyone and reach the semi-finals, need Aleksandar Mitrovic to fire as he usually does for the Serbs.
 Spain haven't hit form for a long time. They're in a tricky group as well.
Lautaro Martinez is an Inter Milan ace and he'll score a few goals.

[Simster]

Winners - Argentina
How far will England get - I don't fancy us. Qatar to beat us in the last 16.

Shock exit - Spain or Germany to go out in the group stages, England out to Qatar
Golden Boot - Son Heung-Min

Dark Horses - Japan to qualify out of the group of death
Shock Exit - Spain at the hands of Japan
Golden Boot - Ronaldo. The guy is angry.
