The World Cup just eight days away.

The World Cup bandwagon rolls on.

This World Cup will by far take soccer to the next stage in America.

Just love it.

Love every moment.

Because it is a beautiful game.

Lionel Messi ends the ultimate ecstatic chapter to complete his already extraordinary story.

They give us the faith to believe in these kind of things again.

Let the history unfold.

Here comes the Vinicius Junior!

1-0!

Mbappe has a hat-trick, he has his place in history.

We are among the best teams in the world.

Oh, what a goal from the wonder kids!

Laby and Jamal!

Teams win championships, it's as simple as that.

Payne!

One nil in the...

And they can hardly believe it,

but what a night this is for Scotland.

Every game's big in the World Cup.

Yeah, you won with the single game,

goal or incident over the next month and a half.

Talksport bringing you all 104 games from the USA, Mexico and Canada.

Now, today's the last show that Ali and I get to do together before it all kicks off,

so we're going to do some predictions.

We are.

Let's start with the outright winners, Coisty.

Don't go for Scotland.

Certainly not after Haidi won 4-0 against New Zealand last night.

I think I'll finish my pick and I'm entitled to go who I want to go for.

You'll be delighted and not so shocked to hear that I'm not going for Scotland.

I think it's four years too early for us.

Took a moment or two for that to stick.

I thought that!

I was looking for a quicker reaction than that.

No major surprises I am going for I think they're actually

Second favourites I'm going for France Who in recent World Cups Have got a phenomenal record

Obviously won it in the 2000 What was it?

2000 Oh dear me Was it 18?

18 yeah In Qatar

And then beating finalists In one of the finals One of the best finals We've ever seen

And I just think I look at their squad Oh dear me I mean there's talented players All over it obviously

but I'm going to go for France just to share it ahead of Spain

and yourself No team has defended the trophy since 1962 I know

which might make you think my choice is illogical but Argentina are the defending champions I'm going for them

they won their South American qualifying group by 10 points they

battered Brazil I don't understand how Brazil are the same price as them in the betting

and just look at the line-up you know I mean they've got a gimme group an absolute gimme of a group.

You know, with Algeria and Australia and Jordan.

They've got Emi Martinez, one of the best keepers in the world.

Might be the best goal in the...

Yeah, and then whatever you think,

Cristiano Romero, when he pulls an Argentina shirt, he's a different player.

Zandra Martinez, Tagliafico, La Tara Martinez,

Alexis McAllister, Enzo Fernandez, Julian Alvarez.

Oh, yeah, and there's the little bloke, Lionel Messi as well.

Oh, here's my question to you regarding the little bloke.

I've already voiced my concerns regarding

Portugal's bigger bloke yes

do you think Portugal's bigger bloke will be a problem to

Portugal more than Argentina's wee bloke will be to Argentina

because it's another four years you know

and I don't care what anybody says time catches up on everybody

and they absolutely won that world cup deservedly

but messi was completely in many ways understandably treated completely differently

as the rest of the outfield players yeah that'll have to be that'll probably more

so this tournament and i'm not i i think

that might come back to maybe

and obviously goes into it having a little knock as well

but Scaloni knows him well has handled him well over the years and

so look it's a possibility I'm not my biggest question mark

over Argentina I think the only reason they can be sort of eight to one is

that depending on things pan out they might play Uruguay in the last 32 Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay yeah okay

and just the fact they arch local rivals you know

that would worry me a little bit

but um now I'm gonna go for Argentina I'd give I'm

certainly give a mention to Portugal as well yes they could

have a terrific tournament too golden boot what are you thinking

I should think it's a two-horse race mm-hmm I do Keane

and Mbappe okay and as I've gone for I don't Bappe finish top score on Mbappe and who

Kane Oh right Oh sorry Kane Oh yeah And I had Mbappe To finish top score In the Champions League

Just to Give everybody Predictions For that one as well I had Mbappe To win the Champions League

Valle to win Europa Palace to win the conference And PSG To win the Champions League Just If you could

Spare me the trumpet Blowing there

And I'm going to go For Mbappe I think As I

say I think it's a two horse race I think the top scorer will not always,

but I think it obviously helps massively when they take penalties of course,

both of them will do that would it surprise me the main reason I'm not going for Harry Kane,

or the only reason I beg your pardon,

probably is the one that I mentioned earlier in the show I think

if Thomas Tuchel has an opportunity to rest him and bench him for potentially bigger games in the tournament,

I think he'll do that,

yeah

but I think I mentioned earlier on it's important England win their group

so I don't think I see Kane playing most of the minutes in this tournament.

I'm about the obvious choice, Kane second favourite.

I'm gonna go for the third horse in the two horse race but I'm gonna go for Julian Alvarez.

100

I've gone for Argentina.

101

He'll start every game.

102

There's any question about that.

103

He could fill his boots literally in those group stages when I look at the sides who are in their group,

104

you know, Algeria, Australia and Jordan.

105

He's a sort after property.

106

I tell you what, I think that price will have gone up

107

after this World Cup because I can see him having a fantastic work.

108

I wouldn't disagree.

109

I mean, there's good value elsewhere.

110

I mean, obviously Harlan 14-1 but you worry about how many games he's going to play.

111

The other ones that come in, Yamal 16-1.

112

There's definitely goals there.

113

There's also goals in Dembele, 20-1.

114

so there's value if you want to sniff about but as I say,

115

I think it's probably a two horse race Yeah,

116

let's just squeeze in shall we,

117

before we go to a break in this part over-performer,

118

who do you think might who's the best outsiders basically?

119

Well, it's difficult to say you look at Morocco for example would that be a big surprise having reached the last semi-final?

120

I don't know if we have massive over-achieving

121

but I think they'll go well again but I'll mention the team

122

that I mentioned earlier on

123

that would be Ecuador I think they're kind of slightly under the radar I think they've got some excellent,

124

excellent players I think they're a good qualifying campaign And I think they'll do well.

125

Yeah.

126

Senegal for me, if they keep their heads,

127

they are 66 to 1.

128

Yeah.

129

66 to 1 for a squad that include Mane and Nicholas Jackson,

130

Elman and Dai, Ishmael Assa,

131

Idrissa Gaye, Koulibaly, Elhaj Malik Diouf.

132

They're in a group with France, Norway and Iraq.

133

Now, on the face of it,

134

quite difficult difficult playing France first I think that's a good time to play them

135

because sides are cagey in their opening games

136

and pick up a point against France they've qualified comfortably they're

137

the second highest ranked African side just Morocco yeah ranked above them

138

and of course we also what they can do in what they can do in the African Cup of Nations

139

and we also what we don't want them to do in the African Cup of Nations

140

and that's lose their heads but if they don't I I think that's a massive...

141

One day an African nation is going to make a massive, massive breakthrough.

142

Would you not consider that the last tournament?

143

Semi-finals?

144

Yeah.

145

Yeah.

146

But I mean going further.

147

I mean getting to a final.

148

Well, I think inevitably it will happen.

149

I think Peli said it and was probably a bit premature with his prediction,

150

but I definitely think it will happen.

151

I'm not sure the world is just ready for it yet.

152

Let's move on to who you think will be the biggest letdowns,

153

the biggest flops of the tournament, Ali.

154

Greeno has already made a suggestion.

155

Biggest flops, Scotland and England.

156

He said easy one, that.

157

Greeno's never short of opinion.

158

And for that one, we'd far rather you kept that one yourself, mate.

159

Thank you very much, though.

160

I'd say Belgium.

161

I just think you know that kind of generation's gone

162

they've still got some fantastic players

163

I actually don't think when I've said Belgium I also don't think

164

and this is where I might be wrong I'm not sure any any of the host nations

165

will do really really well

166

Canada got some great players USA obviously at home but it's funny and I know for the tournament's sake,

167

generally speaking, it is good to one of the host nations or the host nations doing well.

168

I'm not sure any of the host nations will do well, Geoff.

169

You know, the Americans will expect success.

170

I don't see it happening.

171

Not with the sort of results they had until recently.

172

I mean, Belgium have got,

173

I think, a relatively easy group.

174

But in terms of going far in the tournament, I'm not so sure.

175

They won in Croatia last night,

176

by the way, didn't they?

177

I don't know how many times I'm going to have to get us out there.

178

Yeah, Yuri Tillemans and Lukaku still playing.

179

I know.

180

For me, okay, I agree with you about the USA,

181

and Dino say exactly the same,

182

biggest flop of the tournament.

183

I'm going to call it will be the USA over half, not good enough.

184

And I agree with you, actually, Dino.

185

Sweden shouldn't be there, didn't win a single game in qualifying.

186

But for me, okay, I'm going to go out on a limb here, biggest flops, Germany.

187

They've got a sort of gimme group.

188

I know you've got Ecuador in,

189

but Ivory Coast, well, Ivory Coast can be useful as well, and Curaçao.

190

But I look at this German squad,

191

it's a million miles off what it used to be.

192

You know, Valdemar and Wurtz,

193

who both had terrible seasons, really.

194

And they'll both start for the Germans.

195

Pascal Gross would probably start for Germany as well.

196

I love him as a footballer,

197

but he's going to slow things down.

198

Obviously, it's not going to be played at a million miles an hour anywhere.

199

some of their performances in qualifying less than great it's Northern Ireland

200

and Slovakia and yet they're on a winning run at the moment

201

but the quality of their opposition's been not great and the other the principal reason aside from all of that

202

is the chances are they'll play France in the last 16 and that would be that

203

that's what I'm so concerned well I look at the German squad you know

204

and I'm with you I think there's some talented players

205

but unlike a lot of German sides I don't think it's

206

a great team it's not a specific German side you'd go you know

207

and be scared of I do take

208

that point yeah Belgium's uninterested I'm not sure De Bruyne and at the back they're not as strong as they were.

209

You do think the sort of golden generation are past their best.

210

Yes, that's what I think.

211

You have to, don't you?

212

How far will England and Scotland go?

213

Let's start with Scotland, Coisty.

214

I think we'll get out of the group.

215

I'd love to see his...

216

I mean, the dream scenario would be last 16.

217

That would be an absolute dream.

218

My gut feeling would maybe tell me 32.

219

But I'm looking at where we've been in previous World Cups,

220

getting out the group getting out the group is clearly achievable clearly achievable

221

no matter those four goals which I saw at the screen again two minutes ago

222

and then we take it from there just to be involved

223

I'd really love to be involved it's never happened in a

224

knockout game with Scotland at the World Cup I think you

225

will be this time I think you will be it would

226

just be amazing yeah despite the brilliance of Heidi against New Zealand I still think that I think Scotland will go through.

227

And I said yesterday, I think they might upset Brazil.

228

You know, I don't think Brazil are going to be so great this time round either.

229

I'm not saying they're going to beat Brazil,

230

but they might be able to nick a point if they need to nick a point.

231

Where are we, England?

232

You know, we...

233

Okay, I'm a little Englander, the final.

234

Yeah.

235

I think, you know, if we can afford to leave the likes of Col Palmer,

236

Phil Foden, Morgan Gibbs, White,

237

you know, and a lot of others,

238

Lewis Hall at home, then we must have a pretty darned good squad.

239

And I think if we don't make the final, it will be...

240

And I know people will accuse me of English arrogance.

241

You're probably right.

242

But if we don't make the final, it'll be a disappointment.

243

I don't think you'll make the final.

244

I think if you make the semi-final, you'll do well.

245

I've got a feeling we say quarters,

246

but I don't see you getting past the semi.

247

I just think there's better teams.

248

I mean, listen the best team doesn't always win the tournament I get that,

249

particularly a knockout tournament

250

but I just think there's better teams more equipped than England to win it

251

and I would say semis are pushed probably quarters

252

Fraser and Andy have both expressed the same opinion Fraser who was rooting for Scotland of course in terms of flops,

253

I can see Holland falling short again,

254

big disappointment in the last few years

255

and Andy says biggest flop of the tournament

256

and the Netherlands always look like a good team on paper never really do much Dark Horse Norway

257

been a lot of money for Norway recently I think they've

258

been back down from 66 to 1 to something like 25 to 1

259

but you know I don't see it I don't see it

260

maybe I'm missing some get quickly on the Netherlands I mean

261

that purple patch period when they probably should have won one 74

262

and 78 the wonderful teams they had then then they got to the final obviously in South Africa

263

but I do take the point they probably do well

264

I nearly used the word underachieve For a nation that size They actually probably overachieve
