Deuce Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Ecuador is a drastically different team away from home. I'd prefer they not qualify just because I think they'd be a lame duck in Brazil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 f***ing shame if Uruguay missed out, like. Probably not the way they've been playing over the last 12 months or so. Agree in general though, a World Cup in SA needs Uruguay there. A WC held in Brazil of all places needs the Uruguay-Argentina-Brazil trifecta, preferably with a rigged draw and bribed referees so we get knockout games between them. There's just so much stuff in play between these lot. The only thing barely entertaining about Venezuela is Chavez and he kicked the bucket already.

Flip Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Venezuela in a world cup is . Ecuador is not too shabby tbf Deuce, even away from home they've only had couple bad results in the last years or so. They have Valencia, Caicedo and Benitez who are all good players and I think they'll make it along with Argentina, Chile, Colombia and hopefully Uruguay/Peru (through playoffs). I'd love Peru for the simple fact of not being a big footballing nation as well as having Farfan, Pizzaro and Guerrero up top. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Falcao has scored for Colombia (v Peru) and Aguero for Argentina (v Ecuador). If it stays both are probably sure things for the World Cup, well Argentina is already but Colombia will join them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 The current top 5 qualifying would do me now It's the 5 of the 6 best teams in SA and the ones I believe can do the most damage in a World Cup. Ecuador on paper isn't the best team, but they do have some good players and collectively they're a good team. They can definitely go past the group stages in the World Cup with Caicedo, Chucho and Valencia providing they can keep it tight at the back. At the moment I'd love to see Peru beat Uruguay next to keep this really really interesting as long as Venezuela lose to Chile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are winner will play Paraguay's Olimpia in the final, they won 2-0 at home in their first leg yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
