I don't agree that stars in the Belgium team are too old. De Bruyne is 31, Curtois is 30, Lukaku 29... All of them are around 30 years of age and that is the time when a football player should still play at their best. Especially for the star players like the ones I mentioned. OK, Mertens is a bit old with 35 but he is one of rare players that old in the team.
It is not only about their age, i agree that they are not too old, but their form as a team is not as good as it was, in my humble opinion many of Belgium's players were better around 8 years ago, and if they should have won a world cup, it may have been the ones held in 2014 and 2018, some of their players are not in form now, like Hazard and even Lukaku, de bruyne and courtois are still very good, but the general team are not as good as they were, that is why many people are not giving them a chance in this 2022 world cup.
Any predictions guys on who'll be the top scorer in this World Cup? Ronaldo, Mbappe, Pedro, Lukaku, Depay, Messi? Who would you bet to be the top scorer in this upcoming World Cup? I'm rooting for Neymar or Ronaldo but the latter isn't that bad too.
If Haaland and Norway had qualified i would have chosen him to be the top scorer, but now that he's absent i would go for Mbappe or Neymar, i think Neymar will win it because the attacking strength in Barazil is so much and they will score many goals and Neymar will be the one to get the most of them.
