    Can't wait for the Copa Mundial. I loved watching 4 years ago in Germany. The Americans have a legitimate chance to do some damage if they can make it out of the group. They surely won't take it all, but a big win on a big stage would be fantastic.

    I think the US will definitely make it out of the group, no reason they shouldn't. I would love to see them win the group though since if they come in second, they get Germany in the round of 16.

    Algeria and Slovenia won't be easy... if the US plays like it did during Confederations Cup then they'll progress... but Algeria & Slovenia may cause them problems.

    Fifa rankings
    18th = US
    27th = Slovenia
    32nd = Algeria


    on paper you should progress... but as we all know it's never that easy! ;)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Oh no, definitely won't be easy but I also think the US got a favorable draw. Could have been in a much more difficult group and while it is not given, I think they will advance.

    Agreed. Hence me skipping the Belfast show so I can catch the Aussies in action, in that possibly critical 3rd group game, back home in London.
