We're going to get on to the Group E stuff soon enough because...
Tom here is really excited about Germany.
Sorry, Germany.
I'm excited about them all, James.
Ivory Coast, Ecuador.
That was the one, wasn't it?
Before that, though, one team, one big European side who we haven't really spoken much about despite their recent success in tournaments are, of course, the Netherlands.
Is it a mistake not to be highlighting their chances more?
Well, earlier on, I asked Dutch journalist William Vissers of De Volksgras, and this is what he said.
William, how many times have you followed the Netherlands at tournaments?
This is my ninth World Cup.
How would you rate this orangey side then against some of the ones you've seen in the past?
How strong are they coming into this?
Willem, getting out of the group shouldn't be too difficult in this new format.
Topping the group might be, given the other teams that you're paired with.
How important is this game against Japan?
How worried are you about Japan?
William Vissers and happy birthday to him because he was joining us on his birthday.
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
