Fergie only has eyes for Brazil

22 November 2009 12:58
UNITED boss Sir Alex Ferguson is tipping Brazil for World Cup glory. An England side managed by Fabio Capello and featuring several United players are expected to be strong contender in South Africa next summer, while European champions Spain are also fancied. However Ferguson believes five-time world champions Brazil's greater strength in depth gives them an advantage over all other nations. Ferguson, who managed Scotland at the Mexico World Cup in 1986, said: "I can't see past Brazil, actually. They are going to be the ones in South Africa. They are going to be hard to beat. You just have to think of the players they can bring in - they are a supplier of great players. "Last season, there were 103 Brazilians in the Champions League and only 15 Englishmen. More Scots played in the Champions League last season than English players. I thought the 11/10 on Brazil to beat England was the bet of the century."
