Winner: Brzail
Top goalscorer: Benzema
Dark horse: Uruguay
Big team to go home early: Belgium
Small team to get further than we all think: USA
How far will England/Wales go: England semi-finalists (4th placed finish), Wales knockout out at the group stages

Small team was quite hard to choose from. I fancy the likes of USA, Japan, Tunisia and Morocco to all have potentially decent tournaments and I think they all have the potential to be banana skin teams, I think.

I'm going with the predictions of Samuel Eto'o. Seems to know what he's talking about.

Edging towards swapping Argentina out for Brazil as winner. Brazil have a really very decent defence whereas the Argies don't

Also didn't realise Lo Celso was out, who is huge for Argentina

I nominate England’s Conor Gallagher for a category of “Young player to make a real breakthrough at the tournament”

This just reminded me of the worst Golden Boot award of all time, so bad that Kane was booed when he was announced as the winner after the final.

They all count I suppose.
