It's not too dissimilar from the team that went unbeaten through the World Cup. I'd say if Paston hadn't been kicked in the head we would have cake walked through. Who else was injured? Smeltz?

Who knows, perhaps a team where this is their greatest event to date and who has no other successes to boast of at all and very few names among them will do better?
