Concentrating only on Ronaldo would be a big mistake.
Low and various players in PK's have said as much. Portugal are world class counter-attackers. The likes of Pepe and Joao Moutinho give them a strong spine. They don't have an out and out striker, so all falls to Ronaldo. Again. Sure, Miro Klose is the only true striker in the team, but remember Sky, Poldi, Muller und Goetze can also support as second striker if needed. They have strike options. Defensively, Mertesacker and Lahm are world class, although i think he will play Lahm as Aussenverteidiger or Zentral, with Sami marking Ronaldo. Remember, they play together. Neuer, maybe best Goal keeper currently in the world, certainly top 3, so good stopper in goal, Grosskreutz or Hummels or Howedes on last defensive duties with Mertesacker. Boateng on opposite side to Lahm. Pretty solid, with some pace. I don't know if he will play Poldi off the bench or Schweini. I assume he will use Klose as lone striker, with Schweini and Ozil to supply Klose. Mezut has to fire, he has to start believeing in himself more, not later, but now, ready for first game. If Klose doesn't fire or tires, he will swap him with Goetze, and if middle field is struggling with supplies forward, bring Poldi on for fresh ideas. My nerves are tingling, my Spidey senses are telling me a Germany win, 2:0 ![]() |

The star of the game will be Hugo Almeida, that besides being from my home town, has the uncanny habitability of missing with goal completely free. So the germans will be so confuse about that and Portugal will score some how!
![]() May the best win, with out help of the referee! |

Had my first world cup bet yesterday, a £10 treble on Switzerland, France and Argentina. THE ODDS WERE RUBBISH BUT GOT £40 BACK

I'd argue the England officials are amongst the best in the tournament.

Roy Hodgson has said that England's World Cup campaign will 'take off' after the group stages.
And land seven hours later, at Heathrow.

Looks like Kate & Gerry McCann have been looking after the Portuguese defence this world cup campaign
They've disappeared too!
