IMO, Croatia isn't an underdog. They qualified to the WC by playing the playoffs, in one of their recent friendlies they lost against Peru (an inferior team), they only have two or three top players, the rest are just average...overall, it's very hard to put Croatia among the underdogs when they're clearly inferior to such underdogs.

About Belgium, i'm having a déjà vu when people mention Belgium, same thing happened in the WC 2014 and Euro 2016 and both times they were a complete dissapointment.

I would disagree with you on Croatia. They have a history of causing upsets, within the world cup and outside it. But I agree that their recent form has been terrible. Hopefully they will be able to find success in Russia and my hope is that they will be able to reach at least the quarter-final stage.

Brazil is every time favorite because they have good record in World Cup Matches but we can watch some good underdogs as well because now time is changing very quickly and many teams can give shock to these bigs

There are quite a few underdogs, who can give big shock to the favorites. Belgium is one of such underdogs. Others that come to my mind right now are Colombia, Uruguay, and Croatia.

Lol fifa didn't even start and a referee already got a lifetime ban , he was a ref for a match in saudi arabia and al faisal club offered the ref bribe to influence the outcome of the ban. It's surely a pretty dumb move by ref as he could have easily earned money as a ref for fifa

Source : https://1.ftb.al/drydGUHTXM

That is sad on his part. Honestly if least care about this ref story and many others won’t spend much of their time on thinking about his condition. Greed is what forces people to take such idiotic steps and I am rather glad that he is not going to be a part of FIFA. He got what he deserved. This World Cup is not some joke and the best of the best refs should be hired for conducting a fair match with fair results.

Belgium now contains many world-class players and as an underdog I think Belgium will be able to give big surprises to favorite teams.

The form of England players is really sad going into world cup be it Harry Kane, Rasford, and team. I feel sad for Martial is missing out and Sanchez looks out of form. I think this World Cup is going to be really sad. Most of the players are out of form, Italy is not playing. I hope when the World Cup starts everyone hits top gear otherwise all we will have is draws and 1 goal wins.

England will be one of the weakest teams in this year's world cup. and it would be possible for them not to get away from the group phase. if we see the squad that England brings the world of divpiasa, it looks very sad and it took a hard push for England to get away

The English players are all overrated and i believe that this squad though it has a lot of poetential, i think they are nt ready to make any impact in this year's World Cup. Maybe in the next World Cup in Qatar, they would be able to do something there.

Fifa world Cup 2018 offers a lot of opinions, maybe a country like france, spain and brazil become the strong candidate champion fifa world cup this year. What is certain is that this year's fifa world cup is the biggest gambling event, with the growing online gambling progressively increasing the more easy to access gambling game. I am sure there will be a huge turnover of money at the soccer party. The casinos and gambling houses have to put up a lot of money and they will definitely get a huge amount of deals. But be careful of gambling houses that do not have a reputation. Choose a gambling house that has a good track record and you will be comfortable to transact in large quantities.

huge money will be involved in world cup because people will very excited to bets for every matches for their favourite teams since group phase and it's normal if they will looking for trustable house betting to placing their bets however football fans are deserve to selebrate their hobbies with watching world cup matches until final match and the teams with good reputation in this competition such as you mentioned above will always be the favourite teams to bets but do not forget there was several teams who can considered as dark horse teams will playing surprising

Lots of people are undoubtedly going to make a lot of money out of this World Cup but what scares me the most is that, Bribery from betting companies may influence the games a lot in the tournament this year.

There has never been an incidence of match fixing in the FIFA world cup. No one is going to put money over his home nation's victory (at least no one with proper mental balance). But then, illegal betting can be an issue.

Are the other leagues such as the EPL and La Liga allowing their players who will be participating the world cup for their countries time off now since most of those leagues are concluded as I just watched Bayern Munich clinch their leagues title today with raising the trophy for Bundesliga. Cool

A lot of players (especially from the poorer nations) are going to put their club above the national team and may skip the national squad training sessions. You can't really blame them. Money matters a lot, for everyone.

Football is no doubt one of the most favorite game and is being watched and played the most in the entire world especially when you talk about Europe. In my opinion, it all depends on the player whether he is running after money or he is looking to save the reputation of his own country. Money does matter a lot but when it comes to that of nation, you need to think even beyond that.

No doubt football is one of the most attractive game that is present on the planet Earth but this thing will be only understood by the people who play football and the people who aren’t aware of this thing even a little bit would be thinking that I am joking.

Yeah! Many big players in football were caught in history who played it for earning money and made a match fixing and led their country to shame.

Most people who understand the game very well have not been succesful football players in their life. And i believe that no manager will give an ultimatum to the players when they surely know that the season is not over yet.

In paper, it sounds great. Ideally everyone should put their country above anything else. But once you retire from the game, then you may regret your decision. You may face a cash crunch, and at that time you might think that you should have chosen the club over the country, and gained some money.

England have made official the list of 23 players:

Gk: Jordan Pickford (Everton), Jack Butland (Stoke), Nick Pope (Burnley)

Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Kieran Trippier (Spurs), Danny Rose (Spurs), Harry Maguire (Leicester), Phil Jones (Man Utd), John Stones, Kyle Walker (both Man City), Gary Cahill (Chelsea)

Midfielders: Jordan Henderson, (Liverpool), Eric Dier (Spurs), Dele Alli (Spurs), Jesse Lingard (Man Utd), Ashley Young (Man Utd), Fabian Delph (Man City), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Chelsea),

Forwards: Raheem Sterling (Man City), Jamie Vardy (Leicester), Harry Kane (Spurs), Marcus Rashford (Man Utd), Danny Welbeck (Arsenal).

What do you guys think? I think the midfield is not that impressive, really shows much they lack top players in that position (and also in the defense). I'm surprised John Stones is on the list, he didn't play that much in Man City this season, did he? and Smalling deserved to be there, he's been way more consistent that Cahill and Stones throughout the whole season. Overall, I'd be very surprised if they make it past the Round of 16.

To my mind, the strangest thing is 3 LBs and 3 RBs: Walker, Trippier, Arnold, Rose, Yound and Delph. I'm afraid it's too many slots for these positions and picking players like Albrighton or Shelvey would be better due to opening much more options in the midfield. Remember recent astonishment after seeing that Alex Sandro wasn't included into Brazilian squad? I don't want to compare if he is worse or better than Filipe Luis, but I think this is a nice example, which shows Tite has much more rational approach to forming the list than Southgate

Yeah, that's a lot of fullbacks, maybe Southgate is planning to play with 3 CB at the back (one of them being Walker, he's to that position in Man City) + two fullbacks? that would explain why they need so many defenders. Based on this squad, I think there's a chance that England is going to play with a 3-5-2 formation in the WC. We'll find out in their next friendly vs Nigeria...tough opponent, though.

And I agree with Shelvey, if feels like the squad needs more creative players. And he's the kind of players who loves to play long balls, and with fast players like Vardy, Sterling, Rashford, and Welbeck, they could've taken advantage of Shelvey's playstyle. Kinda odd that Southgate wanted Ruben Loftus-Cheek instead of a more experienced player like Shelvey.
