SO... predictions and adopted teams ahead of Saturday's big kick off?

I am running an office sweepstake so my allegiance will become apparent once the name comes out of the hat. I would like Croatia (esp as they knocked Ingerland out
)

I'm abstaining.
I don't want to have to listen to Steve B*stard McLaren opine about other countries strengths and weaknesses because if he's such an expert, how come he couldn't manage to lead England there?

I heard Martin O'Neil is on the BBC commentary team. He's the best pundit out there.
Brilliant analysis during the last World Cup, he did say Italy would win the thing before the tournament began.

Head says Germany or Italy. Can't understand why anyone fancies Eduardo-less Croatia really.
In terms of who I am supporting....
HUP HUP HOLLAND!!!
'We' have got some decent attacking options, but are suspect at the back. Losing Babel as the 'impact sub' option, due to an injury in training the other day, was a real blow.
