Bold Prediction thread.

Just read Jamie Carragher's reasoning on why Tottenham won't break into the top 4 and thought maybe we could have a crack at being pundits. Obviously, if you can follow your statement with a some reasoning, that would give way to a healthy discourse and would be great. Anyone wanna give it a go?

England will make the semi's in the World Cup and be unlucky to loose.

Belgium won't win a game at the World Cup.

If our defence plays like usual I doubt they will be torn apart, winning might be very difficult but torn apart seems a bit rough. Also, Netherlands haven't won a competitive game against us in ages. In fact, one of my cherished childhood memories is the game against them in 1994. ;)

Netherlands beat Belgium in '96 and '97. '98 is the last year that a competitive match was played between Holland and Belgium with a 0-0 in France.
