Some have said it is the easiest group at the World Cup, but we realize it won't be like that. Germany are a tremendous side, but to be honest I don't know much about Cameroon and Saudi Arabia.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you qualify for a World Cup and expect to get an easy group, you are in the wrong sport. It doesn't work like that.
Cameroon is stronger because it's a country of conquerors, of winners. Cameroon's players aren't necessarily very technical, but that when they play, they play to win.
A German team could be quite good. But maybe they are a little bit too convinced that they are the best.
I think we have a good team, but soccer fans will know that we're in a really tough group. The three teams in our group are really strong. The Czech Republic is a very good team, Italy is traditionally a powerhouse, and Ghana is one of the best teams in Africa.
It's never easy at the Olympic level. Russia, Romania and China always are contenders.
Soccer is simple, but it is difficult to play simple.
Brazil - they're so good it's like they are running round the pitch playing with themselves.
German football is like English football. The Germans and the English do not play like a Brazilian side. They have to improve, bring up their young players, who have character.
We South Africans are also crazy about football, so the World Cup can be nothing but successful.
When I watched the Premier League on the telly, I didn't expect it to be that hard. The opponents are all physically strong, real athletes. It wasn't like that in Germany. You must be prepared for it. But I prepared myself for it.
