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.

A lot of the players you guys are naming are over the hill. With Haaland there’s really no question, he’s at his peak and is dominating at the highest level of football.

He is finishing chances that are created for him by teammates. He's not the bus driver. Like I said, that's why Iceland is not at the World Cup. The best player isn't necessarily the best goal scorer. You can be a great goal scorer who doesn't score much if surrounded by players who cannot give you good chances to score. Lewandowski and Haaland are great examples of this comparing their club vs international resumes.

Very true, however I think the sample size for haaland is still yet to come and lewandowski has 70+ goals in 130 appearances. For comparison Messi has 94 in 170 appearances, that’s 50 more appearances, so that’s roughly the same.

What I’m saying btw is that I don’t think lewandowski is a good example cause he scored alot at the international level.

Lewandowski is just as over the hill as Messi is

My point is, Lewandowski scores a lot more often at the club level. His goal numbers at Bayern were otherwordly. So does Haaland obviously. Messi and Ronaldo were also a goal per game at the club level in their primes; but never at the International. I believe a large reason for this is the lack of quality around them in the midfield at forward. All four of these players are accustomed to playing with World class talent at their clubs but not their National teams. Meanwhile, Mbappe is surrounded by tons of talent on team France. He can easily score a goal per game for France.

Yeah I see what you’re saying about mbappe. If you put Ronaldo or Messi or lewandowski in his position they too probably have better international stats, that makes sense.

What are your thoughts on the US and our #9? Do you think we have the chance to develop a player like mbappe, Ronaldo, or Messi in the near future? Even Dempsey asked turner today in his interview about finding a #9 and then apologized, but I do feel like our team provides a lot more chances than normal teams, we are just missing that mbappe up top. :/

Perisic equalizes for Croatia. High class player who can still do it.
