World Cup 2010 Solid Pick(s)

If this loses I'm gonna be pissed! . Want to keep the momentum going until the BIG one Sunday. If the England play wins, there will be probably just one last big play for the competition is over..

Anyway way you can fast forward until Sunday!

Adding one more play tonight. Switzerland not to qualify from group @ +150.

400 to win 600. I think they might struggle tonight and Chile have impressed me so far and can keep it close against Spain.

ANOTHER WINNER! ..

If England qualify then I have surely broken the units record for a major sporting competition..If they lose I only break even ..

Man I live for this adrenaline rush! Am I nuts? Yes I am. Have I lost big bets before? Yes I have. Will I change? No I won't!

Adding...

Brazil, Argentina, Holland parlay to qualify 1500 to win 1000....

That is my last play till Sunday and could be my very last play of the world cup . England over to you

Right guys. I am taking a break till Sunday..My England bet IS PLACED. 18k to win 15k England to qualify. I have taken a print screen so if anyone doubts me, send me a friend request, PM me and I will email you with the betting slip...Posting reasons for my England play again. Enjoy tomorrow's games, Good Luck with you plays and See you Sunday

So why England!?

1) I feel they are the better team and I feel they are the one's that are coming into form at the right time. The were signs against Slovenia that finally England were discovering their form after a slow start. Germany on the other hand have looked less then impressive their last 2 games. When I compare the teams I see a German team which looks vunerable at the back. While England don't have the best defence in the tournament, it's a damn lot better then Germany's. I think England can exploit these weakness's and I see a definite edge here. I also feel England have the edge in midfield and in the forwards. Germany have been successful for years by having a solid foundation at the back with great organisation. That is no longer the case. Pre tournament Germany were double the odds of England (and rightly so when you compare the squads of both teams) and now you want to give me near evens for England to advance! Yes Please..

2) Alot of these games come down to coaching. Joachim Low(e) has never convinced me as a coach. Yes they got to the semi finals in 2006 but they were the host nation and Klinsmann was the coach. In Euro 2008 they got to the final (after losing to a bad Croatian team in the group stages) but their route was quiet easy. Portugal never show up when it matters and Turkey were always going to be cannon fodder. Spain only beat them 1-0 but they were far better then that on the night. Besides being coach to Germany, Low has little mangerial experience and has achieved very little in the game.

Fabio Capello in my opinion is one of the top coaches in the world. Tactically there are few better and all that experience coaching in different countries and more importantly winning in different countries gives him a HUGE edge over Low in my opinion.

3) The dreaded penalty shootout. While my fingernails will be gone by the time it got to penalties (if it does) I feel England would have a great chance in such a position. In previous tournaments they never had 5 reliable penalty takers. Now they do. Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard and Milner all take penalties week in, week out for their clubs. Ashley Cole, Joe Cole and Defoe are also very good penalty takers. David James for all his faults is a superb penalty stopper. He is Huge and fills up the goalposts in a way, that they actually look smaller. I like England in this situation if it does arrive.

4) Injuries. Yes England have a worry with Rooney and this is the biggest concern to my bet but Germany will play Bastian Schweinsteiger, Jerome Boateng and Mesut Ozil and there is no way they can all be fully match fit (especially Schweinsteiger). Germany don't have a big enough squad to replace these players so if they pace of the game is frantic (and I expect it to be) then these players will struggle in the second half.

Can this bet lose? As I said of course it can!. It's no LOCK as you guys put it. How can it be, one silly Red card and the whole thing is gone up in smoke. Wayne Rooney has been injured for 3 months and has suffered a damaging loss of form. Also, before the Slovenia camp there was dissention in the camp. But I simply can't get away from the fact I am getting near evens on the better team, with the better coach, with the bigger fan support (England fans will out number Germany 2 to 1 at least). I fully believe in this bet and I am putting my head on the chopping block (nice and early)

5) Experience. Joachim Low's young team - eight players under 26 - looked vulnerable and lacking in confidence against Serbia and Ghana (until they scored). There is also the belief that, though Michael Ballack wasn't missed in the sort of game that saw the Socceroos thrashed by four goals, he will missed bigtime against England.

England on the other hand have an average age of about 29 (I think). Most of their big names players have played in champions league finals. Such experience can be vital in what will be a pressure charged situation on Sunday.

6) Destiny: Ever get the impression Maradona was going to meet England in this world cup and break their hearts again ala 1986..

No problem. I have made this bet at Ladbrokes.com. I am a VIP client there. Reason being when Mayweather fought Hatton, I flew to England and made a very large play in a Ladbroke bookies on Mayweather to win and Mayweather to win by KO (lot of hassle to organise). As part of that bet, I created a internet account with them and they made me a VIP client..It basically means I can bet up large amounts on a single bet.

No problem I will sent the slip, but please if your down leave it go. Chasing like this rarely pay's off. Take a few weeks and come check my boxing threads. I hit very regulary there and will try make that 1.8k back slowly but surely but take my advice and sit this one out
