Italy = world champs and until the next world cup thats what they'll be imo, the ratings system is worthless at best so until the next world cup Italy are the team to beat. Would Argentina go in as favourites Id have to say no, before the Argies I'd put my money on Spain and Holland because just once in their lifetimes they have to play as a team and live up to the hype aka Argentina thats why I wouldnt put them as favs as they self inplode on the big stage and imo the Eurpoean Championship is deeper team wise than the Copa.
