Denmark are in Group E at the World Cup and will play the Netherlands, Cameroon and Japan. This is the Denmark squad which I believe has the best chance of success in South Africa.

Agree with my selections?
The Coach
Dane Morten Olsen has been Denmark's coach since 2000. Previously he had coached club sides in Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands.
Denmark's Strengths
Denmark are a solid team across the field with their players playing for various clubs across Europe.
Denmark's Weakness
Denmark look to be lacking the type of playing that can make something out of nothing and in the end this is what could cost them at the World Cup.
