Seeing the teams reminded me we're in one of the woat eras for international football quality wise. All the historically top sides are just decent to good

Not one team stands out as different level

Not even France?

Not even France?

I’d say Brazil, Argentina and France are the only ones that really look good. But I think having this WC in middle of season should lead to higher quality as the players are still in mid season form.

They the best of a bad bunch

Just seeing canada brings a tear to my eye

Our first WC in 36 years and we gotta wait 8 months for it to start.

Being in pot 4 is not so bad, most of the pot 3 teams aren’t all that good. Poland, Morocco, and Senegal are the only ones that worry me.

We gotta clear house with the NFF.

2023 and 2025 AFCON are coming up. We need to win at least one of those and then qualify for 2026 WC.

Hopefully I’ll get to watch my Super Eagles live and direct.

That 06 World Cup was STACKED with legends of the game.

This is a shyt Mexico team and we still ended up higher then USA's "Golden" generation

That US golden generation is a bunch of 19-22 kids. There isn't a true leader on that field and if there is it's Weston McKennie who was out injured. No honest USMNT fan feels like this team is that great at this stage and lead by an average MLS coach. With that said I can't even remember the last time Mexico beat the USA.
