well i didn't know about that but the thing about kaka is that he can hit greater heights of form than most in the brazil squad and was playing quite well today so in my opinion he must play every game.

i pulled out brazil in a sweep sake i'm in so i just want what’s best for the team 😉

plus placed a little bet on argentina so hopefully we can see a brazil.argentina final
😀

Kaká was treating an infection in the pubis at Real Madrid.
He's out of shape and without match practice.
He's not ready for the round of 8 and he's on a yellow card.
All players of the opposing team will try to irritate him, and he will fall into the trap.
If Brazilian team does seven games, Kaká will play five. So, we can discard him.

I'm going to issue a bold statement:
1 of the half-finals will be:
Uruguay-Germany
(Uruguay will beat Nigeria or South Korea and in the quarters they will beat the USA. Germany will have much tougher matches, beating England and Argentina)
I also predict Spain will be 3rd placed in this WC.

Bump.

Serious question.

Yes, he might be fined or banned from a few WC-related matches (but Kaka's yellow card will not be overturned). I certainly hope Keita is banned, conduct like that is despicable.

Rivaldo did something similar in 2002 against Turkey, anyone remember that? Perhaps these things even out in the end.

Yes I have, in fact, they are going to win the cup!! They will defeat first Italy in the 8ths, then Brazil in the quarters, Spain in the half-finals and Germany in the final.

Sure was, and it's about time they won a World Cup too. Brilliant players, team starting to gel at the right time... Could it be their year?

I hadn't seen spain's first game, but this performance only makes it clear to me that they are THE favourites to win the cup this year. They are far better than Brazil. I think Spain, Germany, Argentina and Holland (in that order) are the best 4 teams in the cup, right now.
