The Official 2022 FIFA World Cup Thread









YOUNG AMERICANS
The USMNT was by far the youngest team to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, garnering valuable experience going through the rigors of World Cup qualifying. Through 14 qualifiers, the USA Starting XI came in at an average of 23.82, almost two years younger than the next closest team, Ghana at 25.67. Together, the other 31 participating teams averaged a Starting XI age of 27.5 through qualifying, nearly four full years older than the U.S. Sources say this is one of the youngest, but most talented teams the U.S. has ever fielded. While they may not win the world cup this year, they may garner the experience needed to make a serious run on home soil in the year 2026 when the World Cup comes back to North America.

i think this world cup went about as expected for the US, anything past the Ro16 was gravy. considering how they looked before the tourney, i wasn't entirely sure they'd even get out of the group.

honestly, i think the last time the US really "failed" at a world cup was losing to ghana in 2010. i guess you could argue blowing the win against portugal in 2014, but if you had been offered a draw before that match started, you would've taken it.

2010 against Ghana...is that the one where Reyna got dispossessed deep (and broke his knee or something) and they got a easy goal rather early on?

Yeah, that one was bad.

Who is the best player in the world at this point? I think it’s gotta be Erling, Mbappe or Lewondowski right?

Not sure Messi and Ronaldo are anymore due to age

Son Hueng-Min is probably the most underrated to me. He’s such a great forward. Superb speed, ball skills and great shooting ability.

I wish the US had a forward like him

Haaland for sure at the moment, in terms of individual impact.

Imagine France with a healthy Benzema and Kante. They're very deep throughout the lineup.

I was just having that debate with another person. Best right now. Benzema is not even playing in the World Cup. Haaland / Mbappe / Neymar / Messi all having incredible years at club level.

Mbappe has 12 goals and 2 assisted in 13 games with PSG. Neymar is 11/9 and Messi is 7/10. Haaland is on a tear in the premier and benzema @ real.

Haaland is a scoring machine, but that doesn't matter unless you have talent behind you (hence why Iceland isn't playing in the World Cup).

Mbappe is probably the best with Messi not far behind. They can both score goals or create for others.

Ronaldo is a good penalty taker and still a big threat in the air. But he's not in the conversation for best in the world anymore.

When Messi was Mbappe’s age 12 years ago, he was already scoring 30+ goals in the liga with 10+ assists every year and winning every trophy with Barcelona. When he was 24 he score 50 league goals with 16 assists. (domestic stats not including champions league)

I think Mbappe is doing it at the world level (kinda like Pele did it) with much more talent around him. He may surpass Messi one day.

Just too many great players right now to just point at one and say he’s the best right now.

I can argue that Messi at 35 is the best because he is still doing what he is doing without being prime Messi.

Are you that insecure that you have to get so pissy because someone corrected you?

I would have to go with Mbappe. Doesn't even look like he is trying. Just second nature to him.
