No one seems to care about this group

It is quite straightforward actually, even though we play in South America I doubt Ecuador and Honduras can pull an upset.

[LJJ]

This is simply the weakest, least interesting group of the tournament. France has some talent in the squad but they struggled to qualify and their lack of consistency is killing for a tournament like this. I think they will probably be out quickly after the group stage.

i dont know about you guys but i cant wait even for honduras-ecuador

world cup baby!

[ballinhun8]

What?? Come on now.

Group C is easily the most boring group when you consider Falcao isn't gonna play. AMD besides Belgium, group H isn't something to note about.


Vamos Catrachos!

No way.
In Group H, Belgium and Russia will both be very interesting to watch, not to mention South Korea may cause troubles.
Group C is up for grabs, none of the teams is really out of contention.

This Group E here instead is the most predictable.
Upsets can always happen of course but at the start, the actual threats to FRA and SUI are weak.

Official: Ribery out of the World Cup.

[LJJ]

Yup. Ribery and Grenier out, Cabella and Schneiderlin to replace them.

[alenleomessi]

Grenier also out. Cabella and Schneiderlin most likely their replacements..

Ribery was in shit form but still easily their best player alongside Pogba. The group is horseshit right now, its looking good for Bosnia i would say.

[knickballer]

Boring group but I think Switzerland wins the group. They've been very consistent over the past 2 years(although they had a weak QC group) and lots of nice young talent. This group will probably be considered their "golden generation".

Shaqiri is damn good as well but stop him and Swtizerland is going to have trouble creating chances. My guess for "breakout" player although he shouldn't be considered one

[RagaZ]

If Ecuador can play like they did against England, i wouldnt be surprised if they pulled off a result against France.
