Did somebody follow the Nations League in Europe? There were some interesting games of teams of the World Cup. Many of the suffered surprising defeats, looks like they are not in form yet, good that the World Cup only starts in November and there still is some time for imporvements Wink

Croatia vs Austria 0-3: Austria is not qualified. Croatia had to suffer their first defeat against them.
France vs Denmark 1-2: Those two are in the same World Cup group and France is one of the favorites, but they had to suffer a defeat against Denmark
Belgium vs Netherlands 1-4: Belgium is rank 2 of the FIFA ranking, quite a high defeat for them
Spain vs Portugal 1-1: Always an interesting duel. Ronaldo only played the last 30minutes
Czech Rep vs Switzerland 2-1: The Czech Rep is not qualified, but Switzerland is.

Do you believe that France will enter the final of this tournament? because if you say for england and make it as favourite, i think it's still very possible and worth it because england still has a very good performance so far than some other countries like you mentioned. So what do you see in France this time that you also make it a favorite in this tournament?

I'm not even sure England will go through to the second stage though...

Group B is made up of England, USA, Iran, and either Wales or Ukraine depending on their upcoming match. I think Ukraine will win and go through the group as well, and maybe US qualifies, possibly leaving England behind.

We'll have to wait and see. Only a few months left.

When i look at the teams, i see England as the favorite among the options. Germany and Spain no longer have their former performance. Portugal is not yet a team at the level to be champions. CR7 is an excellent football player. They have him. But still not enough to be a champion. By the way, my favorite will always be France in tournaments like this. i enjoy watching them.

The problem with France is that they always look stronger on paper, but that strength doesn't always get transferred to the field when they are playing. Anyway, they are the defending champions and will be one of the favorites this time as well. On top of that, they have the best players available in their squad, such as Karim Benzema, Kylian Mbappé, Antoine Griezmann, Presnel Kimpembe, Raphaël Varane, Paul Pogba, Ousmane Dembélé and Olivier Giroud. It will be very difficult to find a more star studded side, even among the CONMEBOL teams. But my sixth sense tells me that this time it is going to be one of the South American teams.

France are indeed worthy to be considered as candidates, but I'm disappointed they lost last night's match against Denmark, actually France took the lead with Benzema's goal in the 51st minute. But in the end Denmark was able to get a goal back and also managed to win the match and with last night's result, I see Austria and Denmark have something that might surprise later. Anyway, I have to watch out for them and reconsider when I have to bet with them, because I also remember them at the Euro yesterday Denmark which made it to the semi-finals it looks like they still have that ability this event too.

Despite England good performance i doubt they could make it to the next round as well, just as predicted by OP and i think Ukraine needed the qualifications to the next stage than any other country as for now, we all know football is unpredictable to an extent as anything new is prone to happen, if we consider Germany to England performance we could see that the margin is much high and i doubt England would be able to scale through it group when faced with the almighty United State which is another challenge again.

Hm almighty USA? We are still talking about football (soccer), right? Wink

England shouldn't have big problems with their group, I think they are a whole class higher than them. They will easily beat 2 out of their 3 opponents (USA, Iran and Wales or Ukraine) which will be enough for qualification to the next round. I think they will come out on top of their group.
The USA can be happy if they do win a single game and don't come out last in their group.

Good job well done for Ukraine as they managed to shock critics yesterday. Tbh I was thinking they will be beaten mercilessly but then, football can be quite surprising and unpredictable. A 3-1 win was a good way to assert their position in the world cup if you ask me.

What will happen to Portugal after the Ronaldo era? Some of the other key players will be retiring soon (Rui Patrício, Pepe, José Fonte, João Moutinho.etc). It will be very difficult for Portugal to replace all these players and fill the vacuum. I have heard a lot about players such as Nuno Mendes and Gonçalo Ramos, but not sure whether they will be able to handle the pressure at top level. Anyway, for now let's wait and watch for their performance in Qatar 2022. Portugal is in a relatively easy group, along with Ghana, Uruguay and Korea. Qualifying for the next phase should be a cakewalk.

The fact that Pepe still plays and gets into the national team, by the way, is a more amazing achievement than, for example, the fact that Ibrahimovic is still playing. In the attack, it is more likely that the time depends on you when you have to strain and make a breakthrough, and in defense you are always led and even if there are no forces, but the enemy is attacking, you must give all your best at 200% and not take a break. And I must also say that despite the fact that a whole generation is leaving Portugal, young players are very promising and quite possibly will be a worthy replacement and will continue to fight for titles.

Ibrahimovic playing at 40 is just insane. I would say Lewandowski, who kicked him out, at 33 is already at the older bracket, and this is probably going to be his last world cup with Poland.

My guess is that a younger squad will get the cup this time. Still not sure which one, excited to see the start of the world cup, there has been so many covid delays!

I think Ibrahimovic can afford to play at 40 and this means that maybe even Cristiano who says this will be his last World Cup can afford to play at least another Euro if not even another World Cup,that would not surprise me at all considering the physical form of Cristiano Ronaldo.

As for the winners I think it will be difficult to predict but I think Argentina deserve to win this having one of the most talented teams if we compare individual players of each team,this is just my opinion though.

Well yes, without a doubt I would think that Argentina has a great generation of relief, I don't know very well how the relief generation is in Portugal, but I think that CR7 will be able to prepare them, 40 years old he is still a very young person, perhaps as you say, for the physical condition of CR7 it is admirable, his body is very worked, he has a very athletic preparation, in one of his matches, the commentators said that before being a footballer he was an athlete and this gives him a big plus in his career, in addition to the jumps he makes when heading the ball are unique, makes goalkeepers see that they are not so tall.

For me, I think England has a high probability of winning it as long as their defence dosent crumble like it did aganist Italy in the Euro final.

I'm not even sure England will be able to qualify to the next stage to be honest. It's on group B with United States, Iran, and depending on the next match, Wales or Ukraine.

My guess is that Ukraine will end up qualifying, and also going to the next stage. That would leave another direct spot which I think the US might get.

It will be definitely interesting to watch though, but I wouldn't say it's a given that England even goes to the second stage at this time...

Despite holding such a high ranking, England has won the world cup only once (and that too in 1966, when the tournament was held in the United Kingdom). Looking at their recent performances, I am not getting very hopeful. They played two friendlies this year (against Switzerland and Ivory Cost). Won both of the matches, but struggled against Switzerland. And during qualification stage, they conceded draws against relatively weak teams such as Poland and Hungary. Let's see how they form at the Nations League.

Can Félix handle the pressure and fill Ronaldo's position in Portugal team?

Yes, Felix can. He already has the best mentor It reminds me of a time when Ronaldo himself was a rising young talent and was training with the legendary Figo.

Hahaha, yea this is usually/historically true Grin

I wonder if this is still valid though. This was more like a thing in the 1970s-90s. Now football is so comercialized and the English Premier League is (arguebly) the strongest in Europe. Even if many players there are not English but from different countries, this also shapes and influences the English team. I think it's time that England finally wins some big international title.

Germany on the other hand has had mnay problems since their 2014 win. I don't see them overcome those in the next few years.

2014 Germany was at another level, Mario Götze played an excellent final, but overall the entire team was just so great.

I think Germany in this world cup will showcase some new players, and try something different. But I'm sure it will advance to the second stage at least.

They were the first team to qualify for Qatar 2022 (after the host of course), so that means they're prepared to win the tournament this time again.

LOL.. I would agree with this. England always plays like shit during world cup. And if you remember, back in 2014 they even failed to progress to the second stage. Back then it was a shocker, as they finished at the bottom of their group with just one point from three matches. To be fair, Italy also failed to qualify and were placed in the same group as England. Costa Rica and Uruguay were the two teams that qualified from Group D. Back then the only point for England came from a goalless draw against Costa Rica, as they lost matches against both Uruguay and Italy. Grin

2018 was better for them. They managed to reach the semi-finals in Russia.

I think that this world cup has nostalgic overtones, we are going to see possibly the best player of all time without being able to lift a world cup.

Portugal is the team to bet on in this Cup, it seems to me that their position in the table is due to the cold numbers that lead them to that place, which, just as you mentioned, given the data used, places England better, even better than Germany, never! not in the reality of the World Cup.

I think the percentages are about right. I just want to note that Brazil became world champions for the last time in 2002, having been the favorite to win every edition since then. So in theory it could pay off to place a bet against Brazil that they won't win the world championship. I expect more from France than from Brazil. For Belgium it is the last chance with this team.

France and Brazil have same chance to win this world cup, with best football player in their team i am believe its ideal to have final between Brance and Brazil. Brazilians or france player play for top football club in around the world and ofcourse they have been pass competitive league to improve their skills. interested to see what will be in qualification stage which is team will passed.

Although Brazil and France seems to be the best teams in terms of young quality players, but Belgium shouldn't be underrated. Although the county's football team is gradually exiting its golden era, but the team still have the potentials to win the world cup. A team that boast of quality players like Thibaut Courtois,Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku and a top class coach Roberto Martinez can come up with surprises.Kylian Mbappe, N’golo Kante, and Paul Pogba are some of the best names in football today, but football is still unpredictable because any team can turn the tide of the competition.

World Cup 2022 odds: England to face USA

For me it's surprising to see England side by side with France in second place, both ranking 15% winning chance, ahead of Argentina and Germany, which by the way ranks only 10% and 8%, respectively. I also think Brazil is always overestimated, since they are at the same level of argentinian soccer, but score 18%, almost the double of Argentina's winning chances.

I would swap Brazil and France, although for Brazil even 15% is a lot. In general, this rating is nonsense in terms of verifiability and rather reflects the amount of money that bettors are willing to bet on these teams. If we held 100 such tournaments at the same time, then we could check how accurate the bookmakers are, but now we are all just expressing our subjective opinion.

I would rule out Belgium. From what I have seen in the past, teams that are overdependent on a single player never does will in the world cup. This is applicable for teams such as Belgium and Portugal. And during the Euro Cup of 2021, despite winning all their group matches, Belgium lost the match against Italy in the Quarter-finals due to this reason. Italy had one of the best defensive formations and they were able to deal with Lukaku very effectively. The same will repeat with Belgium, if they play against teams like Argentina, who have stellar defense.
