Zatman Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I wonder which team will be convinced to take a dive for Qatar and at least give them a point. I dont think a host has gone winless before, even South Africa won a game and think the only team not to qualify from the group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The group stages are always chock full of filler fixtures but there’s always a couple of gems there. the Brazil group is pretty interesting as a whole.

Probably C and thats not because of Saudi Arabia Most of the groups are pretty clear cut. The Brazil group is actually a tricky one though, Serbia and Cameroon are very unpredictable and Switzerland are just there Edited April 1, 2022 by Zatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted April 1, 2022 Author Share Posted April 1, 2022 Suffice to say, England won't be sweating any of their games too much. USA players and coaches will be very familiar with the England players and we will be up for it. But we have been really erratic in qualifying. That said, we can beat Iran and any of the 3 playoff contenders. My prediction is England wins the group, we also advance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a snoozefest for everyone with some last minute shithousing for a set piece goal.

WCs are always hard to predict what will make an enjoyable game, sometimes two "bad" teams can make for an exciting game Personally for me even when it's a boring game on paper I still play enough FM and previously PES/FIFA to enjoying looking out for certain wonderkids, whichever world cup it was I saw balanta play for Colombia I'd been buying him for the last 5 years on FM, its good to see some of these guys in the flesh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
