Less than 2 months until the opening match between Qatar and Ecuador on November 20. I can't wait!

Thoughts? Predictions? Don't care!?? Boycott???

- Will Argentina and Messi finally win a World Cup?

- Will MBappé strike again?

- Or will Germany slowly crawl towards the final victory like their tanks??

Official Song - Hayya Hayya Piano Cover. You can see the flag and best football player from each of the 32 participating countries. Maybe your country's flag is in here somewhere )

Interesting fact: the seeded teams that South Korea have played since 2002 have been winning the world cup in sequential order for 4 world cups.

2002
Poland (pot 2)
USA (pot 4)
Portugal (pot 2)

Italy (pot 1) - won in 2006
Spain (pot 1) - won in 2010
Germany (pot 1) - won in 2014

Turkey (pot 2)

2006
Togo (pot 2)
France (pot 1) - won in 2018
Switzerland (pot 3)

2010
Greece (pot 4)
Argentina (pot 1) - ???
Nigeria (pot 3)
Uruguay (pot 3)



Also, from when the tournament was increased to 32 participants in 1998, half of the winners came from Group C (1998, 2002, 2018). Argentina is in Group C this time. A lot of patterns going in favor of Argentina haha.

Just getting ahead of the USMNT not clearing the first group cause god forbid we have a head coach whose head isn't up their ass.

France and Brazil/Argentina are my bets to go far, not sure if any of them will win tho.

I just dont see Portugal performing with this coach, again, we still have probably one of our best selection pools ever but he is just terrible. This last match against Spain was just another example. That and the Ronaldo must play thing is our demise.

That has so much recency bias that is almost offensive to footbal history. Kaká and Riquelme specially should be nowhere near such list. And being brutal, neither should Mbappe or Haaland (at least for a few more years).

History of professional soccer: > 100 years
History of professional Starcraft: 20 years

The best current soccer players have been playing for: 10 years
The best current Starcraft players have been playing for: 15 years

So it's difficult not to have a bit of recency bias )

Plus who says it's only a comparison about skills? Kaka is handsome.

4 and a half weeks till the opening game. Somehow this is still unreal for me. There is like zero hype surrounding this world cup. Or is it just me?

Pretty standard state around here. People are talking about this one as any other.

The only thing is that without a proper break beforehand from club football, people still havent made the switch

Still a bit torn. Certainly not feeling the hype I usually do. Kept it a simple yes/no to avoid diluting it a bit much

Yes, but much less vigorously than normally.
