Shame the U.S qualified as I was hoping for another African side in the knock-out stages.

Ah well, as long as Russia don't get through in the other group I'll be satisfied.

Feel sorry for Benteke; Lukaku has been poor so far, Big Ben would have pissed all over the likes of South Korea and Algeria.

A lot of pressure from the media on him to play well, he's still incredibly young.
Think Wayne Rooney at 2006's World Cup. Been impressed with Fellaini this world cup, always knew he was a quality player.

Stoked for Greece Vs Costa Rica!

I don't want to jinx it but Argentina have a relatively easy path to the final. Brazil's is a bit tricky. I've got a feeling they aren't going to make it.

I'm going to have to go for a Germany/Netherlands final myself.

Prediction for the final four

Columbia
Germany
Mexico
Argentina

Just one man's opinion.

Brazil
Germany
Netherlands
USA---> HAHA

USA wins it all :laughing:

It'll be a cold day in Hell if the USA somehow manage to win the world cup.

We could do it. If we held our own against Portugal, Ghana, and Germany, we could put it together for our brackets.

That being said, if they continue to play this unmotivated, we're not going far. This is the time where having a German coach (imo) is a hindrance. Where is Bobby Knight when you need him?

I believe the USA has a fighting chance against Belgium. They have looked rather average playing against inferior opponents to the USA'S.

With regard to Klinsmann, he is one of the greatest players of his generation and knows what its like to win at club and for country. I hardly see that as a detriment to the team. I think he is quite capable as the man in charge. I do not believe the US has the ability to get by Argentina however.
