You see - even though Germany are one of the better teams, the odds are against them winning the WC - as they are for any team. So, when as most likely, Germany don't win the WC, Hansen using the classic douchebaggery guide to inane punditry can then proclaim himself as some kind of messiah like pundit and and that statement will be used evidence of his punditry omnipotence.
If Germany do win the WC, he'll never refer to that statement again.
This is because Alan Hansen is an inane douchebag.
In fact he is the grand poobah of inane pundit douchebaggery.
And he needs to be stopped.
Again.
To be fair to the guy he also said Honduras, Nigeria and South Korea won't win it and he's been 100% correct. He can't do much better than that, can he? But he still gets criticised.
