Not really any easy games, but if we can jag one or two of the highlighted teams in our group we may be a chance. None of the pot 3 teams really strike me as "easy", neither do any strike me as unbeatable.
I hope we either get a good draw with chance of progressing, or get absolutely screwed and get Brazil, Spain and Denmark/Senegal just so we can watch some quality teams (not ours)
Are you saying Portugal are an easy team from that pot?

Cause i would say they are probably 3rd favourite to win the world cup given the squad they have and how they have been playing for the last 2-3 years.


I can see a few teams that we could compete with from pot 3.
Maybe Peru, Mexico and England wouldn't be too bad from pot 2.
In Pot 1, Russia would be nice, but Poland and Argentina aren't in amazing form at this stage. Poland drew against Kazakhstan and got spanked by Denmark after they had qualified. Other than Messi, Argentina can't score goals. If you had to pick a giant to face i'd pick them right now.
