OT: U-20 WC in Columbia

by Guest Thu Jul 28, 2011 3:57 pm

Starts tomorrow.

I think France has the most talented team on paper. Just some outrageous young players including Fofana, Griezmann, Kakuta, Tafer, Nego, Mavinga, Carole, etc. I really can't see anyone keeping up with them given how physically imposing and technical they are. Fofana is the one Madrid is following...

by Guest Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:15 pm

Eh not really interested too much, Madrid has hardly any players in it, no players from Stade de Reims and none from Fiorentina. Might catch the finals lmao

by Guest Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:18 pm

Why Reims?

by theaguia Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:19 pm

i hope carole performs, i hope he becomes good enough to replace capdevilla once his contract is up

Ahh it's the French team I follow, my aunt owns a hotel out that way so it followed on from there. Not that I have ever met her, but my mum and her keep in close contact Smile

A youth tournament I actually watch. Definitely would be partaking in this thread...

by Mr Nick09 Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:05 pm

who are you cheering for?

by Guest Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:09 pm

I'm assuming you're not talking to me Afro

by Doc Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:18 pm

Well, since The frenchman would obviously be cheering Argentina, I usually cheer Brasil or one of the African nations in under 20's but definitely Brasil.

You don't need to ask me who I'm cheering for!!!!!

Sportczy, I acknowledge that the U19 had more name players than the U20, but I still expect them to be better than the French!!!!

Canales is still not ready, they are hoping he is ready for 2nd game. Pacheco (the goalie) is the other from Madrid on the team.

by Doc Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:25 pm

Shame this thread didn't show up the last time my country qualified (2009), we actually didn't do too bad for a Caribbean nation...

We won the Euro U-19 last year and they're all U-20 now lol.

Doesn't Matter. Now is the Spanish era, your's was a decade ago!!!!!!

by futbol_bill Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:37 pm

Sportczy, do you know the rankings for this tournamment? I assume looking at the groups it will be

France / Columbia
Portugal / Uruguay
Spain / Australia
Croatia / Nigeria
Brasil
England / Argentina/ Mexico

by Doc Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:37 pm

But Argentina has been dominating the under 20's for a while now. Think you 2 could fight for 2nd place or something...

by Mr Nick09 Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:38 pm

Are they bringing Iturbe?

by Doc Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:40 pm

Yup, he's there...

Sportczy, I just looked up the last U19 (and now remember). We were favourites for that final, but simply ran out of gas in the final. It was our worst game of tournament. So, I don't think you have an edge, close but I still think we are better (even tho I don't know most of players).

by Ganso Thu Jul 28, 2011 9:07 pm

you guys are so obsessed with writing Columbia,its colombia lol

and there is no reason for other teams to compete when coutinho is playing :coffee:

we have the most talented u20 in the world imo,too bad neymar,lucas etc wont play

by Guest Thu Jul 28, 2011 9:18 pm

We don't play all our U-20 stars either Ganso. The difference is that France is just dominant on defense and defensive midfield... pretty good on offense. Brazil has mostly offensive guys.

Varane should be on there. Carrasso would be the other.
If it were U-21, you'd have M'Vila and Sakho.

by futbol_bill Thu Jul 28, 2011 9:56 pm

Well now we have
Sportsczy for France
Doc for Argentina
Ganso for Columbia
and me for Spain.

Any others??

by Doc Thu Jul 28, 2011 10:09 pm

Doc for Brasil. Definitely not for Argentina, just pointed out a fact...

by Ganso Thu Jul 28, 2011 10:52 pm

im Brazilian not Colombian lol

@sportcrazy,yeah our cbs are meh,but both of our FBs who were just sold to porto are really good,they played a big part of Santos' libertadores title.

That just typical from us,having the best fbs but meh cbs Rolling Eyes

by Doc Thu Jul 28, 2011 11:06 pm

Aldair was really good though. Probably just the exception to the rule
