Default Re: Outright value

I still think Ukraine are the best value but not the only value. France and Portugal are also overpriced for me. England, Italy and Brazil are underpriced, while Germany and Argentina are about right (although I favour the Argies).

My outright book is very lopsided. Massive green on Ukraine, decent sized green on Portugal, break even on Argentina/France and red on the rest.

It's basically England, Italy and Brazil that are skewing the market imo. They have all been poor so far, and are short on the expectation that they have to start playing well at some point. I just don't see it that way, and will be opposing them all in their quarter final match. I also think Germany are slightly overrated as they haven't yet beaten anyone of any consequence. I agree with Budgie in that Mexico are a very good side, and Argentina deserve a little more credit for coming through that one.

I think Argentina/France/Portugal to qualify is cracking treble at around 14/1. I will add Ukraine as well for the greedy fourfold
