    meh, 80% of South America teams did better than the defending champs, tbh...

    Injuries are to blame, IMO

    If SA had 13 spots this would be a South American final imo.

    Cos Bolivia and Ecuador would have came on strong?

    , their best teams outside of Chile got put to sleep.

    As it stands, half their ing continent qualifies, anyways. They're not picked on. Well, they were picked on at this World Cup.

    tbh you're right, still doesn't change the fact that Europe always outperforms the number of slots and dominates since '02.

    tbh tbh won't deny sons this hurts.
    Hopefully we get a new manager that plays the players worthy of the jersey and not just talented gots. Hopes and prayers tbh.

    Can we at least agree with the notion that African teams not named France have no room in world soccer, tbh?

    Sure semis might have 75% euros but remember those euros gonna have mostly african immigrants starting for them

    Africa is struggling and IMO its because euro teams are taking their best players and offering them citizenship to play for them

    In the US, the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup allows all kinds of riff raff into the tournament. Since MLS started, they've still always had a team win the cup. Only in 2008, did a non MLS team even make the final. But before that, it looks like it was a fun anyone can win tourney.
