don't see there being a clear one this year... hopefully Egypt on the shoulders of the prophet mohammed.

Brazil, I don't think the 'it's in Europe so a European team will win it' means much as 95% of South Americans play here anyway.

Brazil and Argentina.

Sir Harry Edward Kane of England.

Who will win best player?

Messi.

Russia and Egypt are good shouts.

Predict England's performance.

Win first two, lose vs Belgium, win second round knockout, lose quarter final vs Brazil. Harry Kane's seven goals along the way should be enough for the Golden Boot.
