Add 160 (forgot the 2022 WC in 4th week of November cos FIFA needed to hold it in a retarded spot). Minus 20 for the time lapse and it's 1590ish days away. Fuck that a long time. No wonder I got so excited when this last one finally came around.

[Spurtacular]

FIFA thinking about going to 48 teams for 2022. The feelers have been put out there.

but will they qualify tbh?

[Spurtacular]

but will they qualify tbh?

Probably; but too early to tell. This is the greenest this US team has been in about a quarter century or more.

[Spurtacular]

Watched first fifteen mins of US-Brazil along with highlights. Basically a U-23 / U-20 combo team. Garbage.

Buddy, WC is 4 years away. Europe will have heroes rise and fall before for Euros 2020. USA has a decent foundation/coaching and players & fan base more motivated than their talent level. You'll likely qualify. Americans can always steal players with promise of 2024 World Cup...

I ain't stressin' homie. Think you're reading too much into it.

[Spurtacular]

US has a good young foundation, perhaps. But it's still scrubs 'til further notice.

Hopefully I'm not jinxing, but the side looks stronger than in the last qualifiers under grandpa Bauza and mad men Sampabobi.

CONMEBOL tends to be tough. Wouldn't mind catching some of that action.

Happily, the CONCACAF format has been changed to make it easier for US in the event they don't get a result or two. The downside is this helps Mexico too.

I agree, they’re gonna win the WC and Messi will finally break the curse

If Argentina wins, they're a strong side. Cos Prime Messi might've carried whomever. But older Messi has lost a step.

[Spurtacular]

Defender keep making super dumb fouls in the box.

Seriously, how low is the soccer IQ on some of these players.

Arg wins playing like shit

[DAF86]

Argentina with a huge win in La Paz. We never win there. This gives more credit to my prediction that these will be some smooth sailing qualifiers.

[ElNono]

Played like shit again, missed 4 goals... hater's team sucks too, tbh

Nah son. Against Ecuador you were right, not today. This was probably the best Argentina Match I've seen them play on La Paz.

[Canyonero]

Paredes is such an overrated scrub :lol

Palacios otoh :worthy:

Dude just doesn't know how to play as a defensive midfielder. Sexo Penes should play there, imho.

Too bad Ascacibar broke his leg and Kranevitter killed his career smh

[ElNono]

Palacios was good, tbh...

[DAF86]

Argentina with its best game of the Scaloni era yet. Something solid is being built, tbh.

[i'm_still_beta]

This Peru team is stacked

[Bynumite]

FAP getting ready to make another one of his brilliant Argentina WC predictions, that he will claim it's trolling in case of failure :lol

You know what the funny thing is? I think I have predicted every single WC champion since I've been on ST, tbh. Spain and Germany for sure, and on this last WC I don't remember if I said France or Brazil.

[Spurtacular]

Disclaimer: I'm not excited, just curious. The title is probably pretty ridiculous in the end.

Again, not convinced of much; but liking the positive developments.
