So let's start talking about the WC then, it's like a great adventure looming just around the corner now...
This is how I think the Sweden starting eleven will be for the first game, bear in mind that we have two friendlys before that so things may change.
Goalkeeper: Andreas Isaksson (Rennes)
Left back: Erik Edman (Rennes)
Center back: Teddy Lucic (Häcken)
Center back: Olof Mellberg (Aston Villa)
Right back: Niclas Alexandersson (IFK Göteborg)
Left midfield: Fredrik Ljungberg (Arsenal)
Central defensive midfield: Tobias Linderoth (FC Copenhagen)
Attacking centre midfield: Anders Svensson (Elfsborg)
Right midfield: Christan Wilhelmsson (Anderlecht)
Striker: Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Juventus)
Striker: Henrik Larsson (Barcelona)
The two big unknowns are the right back position and the attacking central midfielder, Mikael Nilsson (Panathinakos) is competing for right back and Kim Källström (Rennes) might be a better choice in the midfield.
As for substitutes we have some nice aces up our sleeve, Markus Rosenberg (Ajax) has had an allright season as a striker, also some strong attacking runners like Johan Elmander (Bröndby) and Mattias Jonson (Djurgården).
Also be wary of our very good goalkeeper who I'm sure will be picked up by a larger club soon.
