Unfortunately, I think he’s playing on the wrong side. But they don’t have much choice other than to play some of them out of position

Looks like groups B, F, J and possibly group I will come down to their final match

U.S. vs 3rd place in either B/E/F/I or J - who do you want?

Posted by Smokin Joe Dumas on 6/21/26 at 11:07 am

These are the scenarios I’m seeing.

B - probably Bosnia-Herzegovina or Qatar
E - more than likely Ecuador, but could be Ivory Coast (very unlikely)
F - Japan or Sweden (I’m thinking Sweden)
I - Probably Senegal
J - Jordan or Algeria

Groups I and J have only played 1 match, so I’m just guessing and going by current form. Also, can’t see Senegal placing lower than 3rd or Norway or France falling lower than 2nd.

I don’t want face Ecuador, Japan, Ivory Coast, Sweden or Senegal in my opinion.. But I haven’t really paid attention to the rest. Based on what I read I’m thinking Jordan or Algeria.

What do you guys know that I don’t?

Noooo it was 2 posts that had questions in them. The rest were letting the op know that some of the players he listed were now committed elsewhere

Have all these guys committed?

Why haven’t the ones who committed (other than Luis and Madar and the new kid) signed yet?

I don’t really. I was just mad that others agreed with the ones that attacked me instead of answering my question. Instead, they just said it was answered somewhere in the thread - after it was more than 90 pages long.

Although you make good points, I will say that it’s not “cherry picking” - at least not by me. It’s just the only ones I could find. They were done right after the first couple of days. Well before Spain played.

Would have liked to see graphs of some of the more lopsided matches though (not necessarily scores)
