Don't underestimate Ivory Coast, Serbia, or Spain. They're very good. Brazil will of course win the WC, and countries like Nederlands and Tsjech Republic will also end up high.
Spain are even bigger underachievers than England and the other two - don't make me laugh. :p

Togo and Trinidad will be the most weak of them all. Does anybody actually know those countries, in a football perspective?
We've got a fair few Trinidad players that have played or play in English leagues and can think of 4 or 5. Only one plays at the top level (Hislop) and the other that has played at the top level is now with Sydney FC I think (Yorke). Chris Birchill for Vale was good when he came to Glanford Park but being in League 1 and facing Baraclough, Torpey, Crosby, Beagrie and co is a bit different to potentially facing Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Terry and Beckham.
