here are my picks for the first round:

1. Klose (GER)
2. Shevchenko (UKR)
3. Larson (SWE)
4. Ronaldinho (BRA)
5. Baros (CZE)

I didn't really check if someone has already chosen these guys in this particular order, if so let me know....

This is the official site:

Apparently there is talk of FIFA using the Elo rating system in the future:

Klose was a really good bet! Good luck that I am in Germany I guess...

BTW, for being "Summer" its quite fresh, very nice weather for playing soccer.

Don't tell me you were going to put Donovan as your number 1, George!

It's pretty much a crap-shoot for me.
I did a little reading-up, but I remain clueless.

Well, I think that with this game in mind you might learn a lil' bit about the game George. And if you don't, its anyway fun.

And talking about not knowing so much about soccer, there's some research from some guy in Berlin that found out that people that know a little bit about soccer were as good as "experts" in predicting the outcome of the last Euro Cup.

And totally off-topic and for those who can read spanish I wrote in my blog about my experience in the first day of the world cup (WC) in a little university town in Germany:

George is no newbie in the real football, Patada.

Nice story. Prost!

Well, this day wasn´t great but I would love to change Larsson for Robben. That guy wanted all the balls for himself, and if he achieves in scoring a couple more he will get a lot more passes. On the other hand Larsson seemed shy with the ball, not the same as I saw in the champiions League.
