Originally posted by mlac View PostSenegal have a worse defense than japan ffs.
Poland are decent, efficient enough anyway and obviously have some good players like Milik and of course Lewandowski. I think they could beat Colombia.
I don't think any team in that group is that good, it's hard to call. It just wouldn't surprise me if Colombia struggled to make it out, i said that even before today. That's why losing your opening game in a group like this especially is bad.
I fancied Senegal to make it out because they can score and their defence has been fairly solid in the run up to the world cup anyway, for what it's worth. I don't think Japan or Colombia are that strong, so i fancied Senegal to get some goals against them. But Japan have put themselves in a decent position today.

Originally posted by TheBigLug View PostMaybe, but that's worse for Colombia in a way. Senegal have some decent attacking options. I can see them conceding but i think can score goals too. Even if you focus on their defence, If Japan and Poland can beat Senegal, and Poland beat Colombia which is very possible, then Colombia can't get out of the group, even if they beat Senegal too.

Originally posted by mlac View Postyeah its the best group by far, any team winning the group wouldn't be a surprise. Japan the weakest team, arguably have the best defense with yoshida, nagamoto and sakai...
Saying that, i think they have some decent players. Kagawa of course. Inui who just signed for Betis, he looked good today. Okazaki of course, he has a very good scoring record for Japan.

Originally posted by TheBigLug View PostYeah, I always like Japan's work ethic anyway. They might lack quality throughout the team but they work hard for each other.
