Voinjama Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Mexico beat Jamaica 1-0 last night, they are back on course to be at Rio. A huge month for South American teams. I think Uruguay will somehow qualify leaving Venezuela in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Uruguay are finished, on a rotten run and havent won a qualifier since June last year and if dont win in Venezuela next week will be in big trouble. Venezuela have Bolivia and Uruguay get 4 points and they will be uncatchable i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Just seen the table, and Ecuador are 2nd Amazing! I don't think Ecuador have been that high in the table since this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq0IQ-QH3No 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Uruguay have tough games coming up too. With the players they have, they should be doing better. It will all be very clear by the 11th of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 but their players are aging. They had an old squad at World Cup and kept loyal to too many players and since Forlan lost his way they havent replaced him as the brains of the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 (edited) Cavani (26), Suarez (26) , Ramírez (22), Gargano (28) , Rodríguez (27) , Godín (27).. That is a good enough spine of a team to make it through qualifying. Edited June 5, 2013 by AVFCforever1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Yeah I agree, some quality players there and the goalkeeper Muslera is only 26 too. He was quality in the Champions League for Galatasaray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Muslera is shocking. Great penalty shot-stopper but dreadful at handling and prone to a blooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 yeah last time I saw him he had a shocker vs spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I can only judge him from games in the Champions League because I don't follow the Turkish League, nor do I watch Uruguay games. In the Champions League he was impressive, but you have probably seen him more then me, so your opinion may be more valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I seen him mainly at Lazio and they got rid of him as soon as they got a decent goalkeeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Suarez is suspended for the Venezuela game. They've faded now Forlan is too old to dictate things now. Really going to need Cavani to step up now as he often has to play wide in their formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Suarez is suspended for the Venezuela game. . What is he suspended for? He hasn't bit anybody while playing for Uruguay as far as I am aware and I think he got away with punching the Chilean defender last month because the referee didn't see it, so it must be that the media are against him or something... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandaq Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I am pretty sure I read somewhere that they picked up the chile case. Think there was a story about it like 1 month after it happened, but didn`t really think much about it. But pretty certain that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Think he has 3 yellows so you get an automatic one match ban in the south American qualifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Forlan is still in the Uruguay set up. I am surprised by that. Anyway it is a huge day for the qualifiers today, I fancy Netherlands or Bosnia will be the 1st European sides at the finals this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Be great to see Bosnia make it, rough luck for them to get Portugal twice in the play offs. They have some decent players too like Dzeko, Ibesevic,Begovic, Panjic and Muslimovic so not sure they'd be a walkover in whichever group they end up in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Yeah I agree, they have a top team, and in 2010 had Spain in their group so would be difficult to win that and 2012 they had France. They deserve this easyish group and I look forward to seeing them in Brazil next summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
