And some players who hoped for their last World cup have to accept that they haven't been called up like Hummels.
World Cup Squads 2022
- Thread starter Ramos
- Start date
We must catch first spot in group. If not, our path in knockout phase will be brutal.Thanks mate!I think we chosed the wrong tactic, were too open in the final and referee feked us up a bit too. Also Subašić was playing injured and didnt move for 2 of French goals which he maybe could have saved. But a huge success nevertheless which was celebrated here to no end. You dont end up in WC final every day.
This team is better and has more depth than the one in 2018 so here's hoping we'll have another good tournament.
I hate playing against Portugal
We're mixing with Germany, Spain group.We must catch first spot in group. If not, our path in knockout phase will be brutal.
I hate playing against Portugal
We might end up playing against Serbia too.I am looking little further than you
Spain, Portugal, France, Brasil is our path this world cup. Easy peasyWe might end up playing against Serbia too.
.In the past only 4 players were part of 5 different world cup squads (Carbajal, Matthäus, Marquez and Buffon).
This tournament alone 5 players could be going to their 5th world cup: Messi, Ronaldo, Guardado, Ochoa and Sergio Ramos.

Ours is announced today. Apparantly no Cillessen, which I personally love. Can't stand the cnut.
If we want to win the thing we must beat the best.Spain, Portugal, France, Brasil is our path this world cup. Easy peasy
I still remember your penalty shootout vs Argentina. Guy managed to dodge all penalty shots. Lvg fecked then with not saving substitution like he did with Krul vs Costa Rica.

I think I watched the reveal video of this. Where they went to every city each player is from. It’s made me want Uruguay to win it even more now
Yeah, that reveal video was solid. Great way of revealing the squad.
Posting it here for anyone who haven't seen it yet.
That's great. Makes you want to visit. Weird how football teaches you stuff. I know little to nothing about Uruguay but once i saw Salto i knew it was for Suarez and Cavani.

I think Cillessen stopped his first penalty about 10 years into his career.
Damn. I have no affiliation to Uruguay but even that makes me want to put on their shirt and run through a brick wall for them.
Only 3 CBs? i suppose Pereira could play there, surprised Santos didn't call Inacio.
Mendy? Isn't he in prison?

So Pellistri is good enough to make the Uruguay NT for the World Cup but can't displace Elanga enough to get a few minutes against shite like Omonia and Sheriff.Uruguay Squad

Spain’s is the worst out the traditionally successful countries. Some major omissions.
Who do you miss in particular?
What's the squad.
ETH needs to get his act together quickly.
Gravenbach and Renato Sanches chose to be bench players at superclubs and now they’re missing the World Cup
Dutch defence looks quite good, doesn't look a good squad otherwise.
I don't know what I was expecting but Spain's squad looks underwhelming on paper.
Think I'll revise my World Cup predictor for my work competition and have Denmark as surprise finalists. Might be going too big on them but thinking to have then topping the group over France, beating England in the QF and from seeing that Spain squad I'll have them beating Spain in the SF now.

Spain Final Squad
Great to see Frimpong make it over Rensch. He deserves it.
Or maybe he just goes by what he sees in training every day. And maybe he noted Pellistri didn't register a single goal or assist at Alaves last season. In short - maybe Pellistri isn't necessarily the bees knees at PL level even if he's in the Uruguay squad.
(Or maybe you were being sarcastic?)
Hmm. Naw. I don't see this team making it to the final.
Mostly fine with 2 very weird exceptions. Flekken should've been in instead of Pasveer or Noppert and taking Noa Lang over Danjuma is utterly ridiculous.
Also unsure about Taylor over Gravenbergh. Taylor had some good appearances this season, but he's definitely not better than Gravenbergh. Seems a bit like Louis being miffed that he adviced young players to not go to a big club too quickly and Gravenbergh said okay boomer, and signed with Bayern.
That is an underwhelming squad particularly up front. Enrique is by far the best coach in the tournament though so he might just surprise us. No Thiago is good news for Liverpool.
Maybe.
Struijk should have opted for Belgium. Would have been at the WC now. He had no chance with those Dutch CB's.
Yeah, I'll be cheering for them this World Cup. Partly because of the video, but it's also likely the last World Cup for Cavani, Suarez, Godín, Muslera, Cáceres, and possibly Coates and Vecino.
I’m Welsh but on paper England have possibly the best squad. Fortunately they also have one of the worst managers.
Maybe.
Ah.
You know, it's genuinely hard to tell around here (not you specifically, but generally).I know. Will put white text next time.Ah.
Quite a lame attempt at humour, and might be deemed slightly racist depending on sensitivity? Can we find some stereotypes to make fun of your country too
