I’m sure most of you are aware that this is a unique World Cup .
Not only is it in Qatar, but it’s the first one to be played in the winter .
So who's your favourite to win it & who are you rooting for ?

USA but they have no chance. Maybe to get out of the group but that's it. Even though they are 8-1 I think England will win it.

I have to disagree .
The USA have evolved in football terms & have some good players playing in top leagues in Europe.
I think they will give England a good run for their money .
Nevertheless, I can’t see the winners coming from that group . handshake

The World Cup is a celebration of sport , not a free for all for hooligans to use as a battleground.

Qatar has been criticised for staging the World Cup because of its human rights issues & for the corrupt way it gain the World Cup .
Let me tell you , there have been 8 other venues with similar issues , yet their morality has never been questioned, even in the last tournament where Russia were the hosts .
And on the corrupt why they achieved the staging…. I guess money talks & FIFA are a corrupt organisation, it’s just that Qatar used their extreme wealth to bribe them more than the other nations .

Also whether agree or not (when in Rome you do as the Romans do)

Sport should be about sport and that be that. teddybear

I could live with that if Qatar had any footballing culture at all and didn't insist upon ruining everyone else's genuine footballing culture.

Has anyone watched a soccer match sober? after all, as a spectator, soccer play is usually and almost as boring as watching people play golf.

Many people wouldnt agree with that, gal...3.5 billion in fact, almost half the worlds population. Surprisingly, cricket comes close second with 2.5 billion.

But, 'The beautiful Game' reigns Supreme

I wonder how they arrived at the numbers in that article.

College Sports, then Ice hockey, then Major League Baseball are my favs.
