maqroll Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Each of these teams must all think they have a good chance of winning this group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 This is the most interesting group. None of the 4 teams are much better than the others. No real minnow, but no top side. I'll go for Ivory Coast and Colombia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Yeah this is definitely the hardest group to predict. I can see the two teams from this group going out in the 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) What group does this group play in the second round? Edited June 8, 2014 by Rovers13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 What group does this group play in the second round, Group D. ( England, Italy, Uruguay, Costa Rica)So even if you win the group, you will end up with a tough game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 England actually has a real shot at the quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted June 8, 2014 Moderator Share Posted June 8, 2014 I've gone for Columbia, pure guess based on their advantage of being more used to conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 japan were in a similar group in 2010, them, holland, cameroon and denmark and from what i can remember it was one of the best groups just got to hope all of them have the attitude that they can win the group and go for it, unfortunately i cant see Greece ever having that attitude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Wouldn't shock me if Colombia miss out, their CBs are old and I think losing Falaco is a bigger blow than a lot realise. Japan are pretty underrated, got some decent players in their squad nowadays who don't just play in Europe as they sell shirts and they know what world cups are about now. Ivory Coast are probably a bit past their best now but still have decent players and are actually in a group they can qualify from for once. Greezzzzzzzzzzzzzzze I couldn't care less but they've obviously advanced from tough looking groups before so can't write them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Greece might be the national team I respect most. They make the most of their talent, maybe more than any other country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaajax Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Greece might be the national team I respect most. They make the most of their talent, maybe more than any other country. That's because they only have 11 players with any kind of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 think Colombia and Japan will go through. Japan play some really good football and could finally be their breakout. good manager as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted June 9, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2014 England actually has a real shot at the quarters. That's what I keep saying. Quite a few of my friends saying stuff like "if we get out the groups we'l go out at the first knockout round" when I think we'll get to the quarters. We should (SHOULD) win our round of 32 match if we get there. Although obviously Colombia and Ivory Coast are both capable of beating us on their day.

Czechlad Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 This is probably the most boring group. Greece are terrible to watch but they get it done. Japan can be a surprise team. They have quality in the midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Greece will stink the place out but Japan were pretty good to watch in the Confed cup and Colombia and Ivory Coast have lots of attacking quality so I reckon we'll see goals from those three.
