Uruguay, USA, Ghana, South Korea

[murphy's law]

Uruguay, USA, Ghana, South Korea. Stupid draw means one of these will be in semis! Oh England, damn you Donovan.

Uruguay for me, Diego gives them the x factor.

wonder if king gus will be a pundit tomorrow?

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

Really could be any of those 4. I'd favour South Korea the least, but the other 3 are more than capable for getting there. Will come down to who's defence is most solid

 

[HseagullsH]

From what we've seen, Uruguay are definately the strongest of the four.

I predict a Uruguay v USA quarters with Uruguay getting to the semi-finals but it could be any of them.

 

[SNOOBS]

I went large on Uruguay to get knocked out in the semis (£3.50 at 7/2)

Can I just pipe in to say that I love Gus Poyet?

Uruguay, USA, Ghana, South Korea... one of these will be in semis!

Uruguay have won the World Cup twice. USA have been beaten semi-finalists.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

uruguay are very good

forlan is SO underrated, can't believe how amazed all the pundits/commentators are at how good he is, just because he was rubbish at man u AGES ago

forlan is SO underrated

only by those pundits that think football doesnt exist outside the Premiership. it was cringing how in one game the itv commentator repeatedly mentioned how much improved he was, apperently not having seen the Athletico v Fulham game nor bothered to research his recent form (better than 1 goal in 2). Motty would nver have made such mistakes.

Likewise the ITV opinion tonight that was baffled why Torres and Fabregas only played part of the game.

 

[perth seagull]

The Gus Bus is going all the way to the semi finals I think. Then they will likely play Brazil.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I'm hoping an African team get to the semi's, and given the mess the rest of them have made of it I'm hoping Ghana prove successful

 

[El Presidente]

Perhaps if our 'World Class' multi millionaire superstars had spent less time trying to keep the ball next to the corner flag and tried to score a second goal against the MIGHT of Slovenia we might have topped the group.

 

[empire]

didnt think that much of brazil yesterday

Amen

I've really enjoyed watching Uruguay and hope they keep going, their suck it up and counter at pace strategy against Mexico weas executede perfectly.
However, the USA are no slouches and keep going to the death as we saw in their last 2 games (both of which they should have won, and don't forget but for a good Rob Green save would have beaten us too).
Not sure about South Korea and Ghana are totally over rated. They only got through because they drew with the Socceroos against 10 men after 24 minutes.....
