- Germany
- Netherlands
- Argentina
- Brazil
- Spain
- France
- Portugal
- England
- Belgium
- Denmark
- Croatia
In terms of tiers, I'd go:
Tier 1 - elite coaches who dominate, very good squads barring injuries
Tier 2 - Good coaches, very good squads (small gap to tier 1)
- Argentina
- Brazil
- Spain (elite coach, squad lacking a bit)
Tier 3 - elite squads, shit negative struggle ball coaches OR Good coaches but average squads
- France
- Portugal
- England
- Belgium
- Denmark
- Croatia
Here are the top 11 IMO and the real teams who will be tough regardless. Genuinely not sure of the African sides, I'll be glad to be wrong but they never do all that well.
Kind of surprised at how many are underrating Germany and Netherlands. They're the only 2 who are coached by very good coaches who dominate games, and have the squads to dominate. Flick would be an in demand coach at elite club level which is rare, and Van Gaal used to be that but is elite for International level. Easily the top 2 for me. Spain with Enrique have that as well, but they lack attackers. Argentina and Brazil play struggle ball kind of from what I can tell, but better than the European struggle ball sides.
