Certain countries shouldn't have to qualify. Germany being one of them. Brazil too. And the US. Germany and Brazil because they are the best and the US because we have all the money and we won't watch it on TV unless our team is in.

Sweden is in the group of death.

Then again, arguably Germany is too....but I don't think Portugal is as strong as they were in their last Wc showing.



Group D is prehaps the best group for Sweden to play in.

Somehow the Swedish team always have problems meeting teams they should win against, Like Greece and say Poland. We usually step it up a notch when we get a team which we have maybe a 50% chance of beating like France or England..

Now France right now is not looking good at all, they had massive problems in the play offs and have not been any good at all since Sedine Sidane left, neither does England with Capello gone, that's the thing with the English team it always lacks the confidence and the stones to carry on through because if they don't win the cup and cure cancer they are going to get murdered by their press. '

Our problem is more an issue of a ego, one huge ego which plays in Italy.. Bench Zlatan and everyone plays fine, the younger players step up more because he's not there to stomp on them if they fail and the regulars take more responsibility, don't let Zlatan play from the start take him in if he's needed.

I think the hardest team to play is the Ukraine, they have the home turf which can either be a blessing or a curse depending on the team..

But I honestly believe that Sweden has a good chance of winning the group.. and then we meet Germany and get crushed.

Predictions European cup 2012:

Group A: Russia - this group is a snooze fest..

Group B: Germany, whom will win every match with 4 or more goals.

Group C: Spain, because Italy is going to shit the bed as usual and play their boring shitty defensive lazy Italian football and loose horribly which I will enjoy.

Group D: Sweden- we have a fair chance.. if not us then England.

Idiotic.

The only nation who does not have to qualify is the host nation.

The US is so far down on the ranking that it should have to qualify even if there were countries that did not have to. You're frankly unimportant to the sport and everyone could care less if you stopped playing.

Incorrect.

The Host nation and the nation who won the last WC get automatic births. All others are earned.

That is correct, I do believe the winner of the European Cup also wins a qualification to the World Cup.

You're half right. No one would care if we stopped playing. Everyone would care though if we stopped watching because we have all the money.

You're half right. No one would care if you stopped playing. And no one outside the US would care if you stopped watching, because barely any of you do as it stands right now

You're very wrong, no one would care and what money? the US is wholly uninterested in Football because you're worthless at it.. You spend your money on Handegg and American cricket..

Um dude, US Owners now run some of the most powerful teams in Europe.

Arsenal, Liverpool and Man U are all American owned now.
