It's wonderful to see and there's every chance of, you know, increased success among the women.
Well, it's great to see the top players in the world and I think it's fair to say that we will see the top players in the world performing and I'm looking forward really to seeing France.
I had the opportunity to have a look at France the other night.
They played a friendly against Northern Ireland and Northern Ireland pushed them.
I mean, it ended 3-1 OK, but they pushed them and rather more than
might have been expected in an end-of-season match that meant precious little to the opposition, while France were in their last match before they headed to America.
So I'm looking forward to seeing France.
I always have a soft spot for the Germans because I lived in Germany.
And then, of course, you wonder about Brazil.
Brazil are now being managed by Carlo Ancelotti, who's the most successful club manager in the European game.
And now he's gone into international management with the best possible team that he could have, Brazil.
And he's bought into the whole thing.
He lives in Brazil now.
And he's just Mr. Football in Brazil.
And I really want to see what he's done with this Brazilian team.
Because everywhere he's gone, even at Everton where he had no money, he has managed to...
instilling his players a belief in themselves that makes them bigger than they are.
It really is.
And he is supreme at it.
And I just think that even if Brazil don't have the best players in the world right now, that we're going to see a fabulous Brazil at this World Cup.
