13 points clear from 6th place (no qualification), 12 points clear from 4th (direct) and 5th (playoff) with 4 games to go. Arg still has 5 games left to play.

I can see them playing a rotation of players to prep and get some experience on some of the bench players, or trying new formations for the final games prior to the WC

Im still shocked Portugal (losing to Serbia in Portugal in the 90th min) and Italy (tying with Northern Ireland WTF) need to go through the playoff system to make it now. Serbia and Swiss made it direct getting first place in their groups.

Thanks for the info. You guys have any younger players you’re excited to see get minutes? Messi is still the GOAT but he’s getting old in world class athlete years.

Would be crazy of Italy failed to qualify back to back World Cups.
