Good pick, but has been known to be hit-and-miss. I was going with 1 pick per team, and between Villa and Torres, I d rather go with the latter for sheer energy and skills to get those goals in.
The one team which has the best National League of the world (arguably) in the La Liga and some of the best regional teams in the world in Barcelona, Real Madrid, Athletico Madrid, et al, yet have consistently failed to impress on the big stage.
I really hope you are proven right this time, bud. Its about time Spain did some serious ass-kicking in the WC once again.

The same can be said about Argentina. Amazing players individually, but as a team they always have difficulties against strong opponents.
Villa was stand out exceptional 2 years ago in the European Championship and Rooney has been the best player together with Messi in this years Champions League (annual european club tournament), so i've got high expectations for both of them.
