non-serious answer is "Arzani" to all of them. will ponder some more serious responses.

WINNER : I want to say France but they don't seem to have gelled enough in Midfield. I'm gonna go with BRAZIL.

FINALIST : Brazil Vs Spain final.

TOP GOAL SCORER : I'll go with Timo Werner. Gabriel Jesus not far behind.

HOW FAR SOCCEROOS GET : Group Stage.

HOW FAR ENGLAND GET : Round of 16.

WHO KNOCKS ENGLAND OUT : Columbia.

CINDARELLA TEAM : Eygpt.

BIGGEST FLOP TEAM : Argentina.

MVP PLAYER : Isco. Steps into Iniesta's shoes and lifts Spain close to the Trophy.

STAR PLAYER WHO ANNOUNCES THEMSELVES TO THE WORLD : Mohamed Elneny, beast mode in midfield for Egypt.

FLOP PLAYER : Deli Alli. No goals or assists, Welbeck to get a goal just to prove how useless Alli is.

ARZANI EVADES : Over 9000.

SOCCEROOS BEST PLAYER : Andrew Nabbout.

SOCCEROOS BIGGEST FLOP PLAYER : Cahill can't sink any lower in my eyes, so i'll say Mooy to have a shocker and lose Huddersfield a few million when they sell him to West Ham to partner Jack Wilshire next season.

TIMMYS SPONSOR UNVEILS FROM NOW TO WC FINAL DAY : At least one more for Timmy Tams by Arnotts.

WILL AUSSIE MEDIA QUERY WHY A 38 YEAR OLD WHO CANT GET A RUN IN THE HAL GETS SELECTED FOR WC : He will jag a goal in a 4-1 loss and everyone will use it to justify his selection. Plus Arzani will be evading so many players the media will run out of world class players to compare him to.

I rarely do predictions for the reason that I'm often at odds with reality

FLOP PLAYER – Raheem Sterling

ARZANI EVADES – I've done some research and 'evades' isn't actually a real thing

SOCCEROOS BEST PLAYER – Mooy or Ryan

SOCCEROOS BIGGEST FLOP PLAYER – everyone else, Arzani won't do anything but will be touted as a great success (much like the A-League season or the Czechia game)

TIMMYS SPONSOR UNVEILS FROM NOW TO WC FINAL DAY – has Out Tim (TM) got an Official Mattress Supplier yet?

WILL AUSSIE MEDIA QUERY WHY A 38 YEAR OLD WHO CANT GET A RUN IN THE HAL GETS SELECTED FOR WC – no, because everyone else who isn't Arzani is shit, just look at what happened in the Czechia friendly, no one worth fapping over scored

You never know where the cup has been.

Frank Skinner tells the story of how he and David Baddiel did publicity shots for Fantasy World Cup with the trophy just before the 1998 final.

When nobody was looking he rubbed his knob over it and took great delight in watching various Frenchmen kissing it a few days later.
