The 'WC 2014 General Discussion" thread kinda serves the same purpose already.

Do we know where different teams are having their pre-WC training camps? I only know that England are in Miami. I would be kind of curious to know how differently teams prepare for the tournament and how much money they spend on it. Like, the backroom staff etc. England even have that psychologist with them. I suppose some not-so-rich nations have it more low-key, no?

When I was verifying the numbers of goals certain players scored, I stumbled over this rofl

"Papa Bouba Diop has only played in one World Cup, but nonetheless boasts a record as good as Ronaldo, Messi and Rooney put together" [who played in two World Cups each]

It always depends on whom you ask and in which region. In Bayern only very few people would say Özil is the most popular player and neither would they around Dortmund or Hamburg, I guess Very Happy

A cool video, just wondered why Messi wasn't there. Probably an image rights thing.

Messi is with Adidas, this was a Nike ad.
