Brazil are always favourites to win the tournament, with a full squad and Dunga's infused European-style style of play suited to modern football. However, this Brazil lacks players to turn the tide, Kaka's state is unpredictable, and the lack of superstars may not be able to open the situation when encountering strong teams.
Argentina had a lot of good players to choose from, but unfortunately Maradona's selection bias was too great, and Cambiasso Zanetti did not make the selection for Inter's treble. And Riquelme is an indispensable player for the current Argentine style of play. Without these people, Argentina has a small squad and a big gap.
However, Messi's presence is a huge variable, and he has the ability to help the team win on his own. And Maradona is a legend in his own right, and it is not ruled out that he may create a miracle again.
I don't think there's any hope for Germany. None of the five big midfielders in the 08 European Cup came. The main striker is completely out of shape in the club, and without captain Ballack, the top 8 may be the limit.
England has the strength to win the championship in terms of the squad, and with a world-class coach like Capello, it is also one of the favorites. However, England players always drop the chain at key moments (e.g. Frank Lampard). Still have to hope for Rooney's impact up front.
Spain is too much to look forward to, although it is indeed extremely strong. However, Spain, which is similar to Barcelona, is also subject to the opponent's midfield interception and dense defense like Barcelona, coupled with the instability of the backline, and is not too optimistic about Spain, and there has never been a big favorite to win the championship.
Italy's squad is too mediocre, and without a talent like Cassano, it is difficult to create another miracle in '06, and we can only hope for another outburst of veterans (but Cannavaro Buffon, Zambrotta, Pirlo, Camoranesi and others are already 4 years old. )
I think the Netherlands is very promising. Robben, Van Persie, Van der Vaart, Sneijder's frontcourt combination is absolutely world-class, and the team is very low-key and hopefully a real success. However, the Netherlands have big problems at the back and they have never won the World Cup.
I don't think France is a strong team. The players of the 98 generation cannot replace the positions of their predecessors at all, and it depends on whether top stars such as Ribery Gourcuff can turn the tide.
In short, I am more bullish on Brazil and Argentina, followed by the Netherlands. England.

Brazil and Argentina. Both are in a similar state. It's up to the opponent to draw later.

Argentina is now playing the most consistent team.

Argentine. Reason: Solid midfield + around Messi, diligent running front + unity, high morale and mature tactics. With Messi as the core, give full play to Messi's organizational and offensive threat; can also run fully to make up for Messi's lack of running.
Specifically: 1. Argentine has always had no shortage of people in the frontcourt, and the decision to determine how far it can go in the World Cup has always been whether the backfield and defense are stable. Although Argentina's midfield is not well-known now, they are all very practical giants.
Goalkeeper Martin is a solid gate in the club, and often has a supernatural play.
In terms of central defenders, Romero + Martinez + Otamendi - Romero is the best central defender in Serie A in 2021, and Li Zao also performed well after moving to Tottenham; Martinez was the main centre-back for Manchester United, and in the few United games I've watched early this season, he played very well against Liverpool, good against Arsenal, not so good against Manchester City, and overall still very strong; Otamendi used to be brave and good at tackling, but he was more frizzy and reckless, and now he should be more mature as a veteran, I haven't seen his current game in Benfica, but I checked his stats and ratings, and his performance is very good. Left-backs Acuña and Tagliafico, the main players of Sevilla and Lyon respectively, have a strong attack and a good defense, and they have performed well this season. Right-back Molina, the main player of Atletico Madrid, doesn't know much about it, so I won't say much, so as not to mislead.
The midfielders are: De Paul and Paredes in the middle, balanced in attack and defense, able to run, especially De Paul, who is typically more powerful than famous (although not less well-known); Lossel, who can play the right side and can play the middle, has excellent disc control; and Gomez and others are also strong players.
2. Frontcourt: Lautaro, Messi, Di Maria, Correa, Dybala. Although this session is not as famous as before, it can be played around Messi, Lautaro has a strong impact, runs diligently, and has a good scoring efficiency, and Di Maria's big heart may be better than before.
3. Coaching, technical tactics and morale, I am not an expert in this area, so I won't talk about it, but he is undefeated in more than a dozen consecutive games, the coach is pragmatic and stable tactics (mainly 433 and 4231), and the players are unprecedentedly united around Messi, and the momentum is flourishing.
It's almost ......The Brazilian team is now more results-oriented, playing more European, Lucio in the back, Melo in the middle, Kaka, Fabiano, Robinho in the front court is the best model, and compared with the previous Samba Army, the team personnel structure is very good, although there is no top striker like Da Luo and Xiao Luo, but the team consciousness is stronger, more attention is paid to defense, and the European style of play is more terrifying and efficient, and it is definitely the biggest favorite in the World Cup. >>>More
