Yes, Ricardo IS a good Keeper. I hate to say it, but he is good.
As for Becks - hes resigned as Captain. He'll probably play 5 or 6 more matches, to get his 100 caps for England, then he might resign altogether. His career is going nowhere at Real Madrid - being England Captain made him what he is.

I've noticed that my Brazil prediction was awfully wrong. Bloody French.
I now say the Germans will win.

And yes, Sov and Grue, like true English Football Fans, we all have a dark side. Expect German police to arrest hundreds... and Christiano Ronaldo is not going to be able to show his face in Britain again. I wouldn't be surprised if Rooney, Neville, Ferdinand, and maybe a couple of others, really hurt him in Pre-Season Training. The whiney bastard.

Brazil lost. Too many stars can't make a great team, it's a good team, just not great team.

They're great individuals. They play as individuals. They don't bond as a team. That's their main problem.
Look at something like the Dutch side in the 70s - 74 particularly. Throughout the whole tournament they played Total Football as a team - and they were mostly great individuals playing together.
