Who will be the 2018 World Cup winners?

Brazil, I don't think the 'it's in Europe so a European team will win it' means much as 95% of South Americans play here anyway.

Which two teams will make the final?

Brazil and Argentina.

Who will be the tournament's top goal scorer?

Sir Harry Edward Kane of England.

Who will win best player?

Messi.

Who will be the surprise team (defined as a team who punches well above their weight and exceeds expectations ala Costa Rica 2014, Turkey 2002)?

Russia and Egypt are good shouts.

Predict England's performance.

Win first two, lose vs Belgium, win second round knockout, lose quarter final vs Brazil. Harry Kane's seven goals along the way should be enough for the Golden Boot.
