World Cup 02: Probably some of the rudest teams ever at this one

danger zone

Reserve Team
I feel that the WC is far too overblown. 32 teams is way too much. There really is no place for farts like Senegal,China, Ecuador no matter if they qualified. There should only be sixteen to 24 teams max. No way should Korea and Japan be seeded, hosts or not, while England get the bum deal in return. The quality of football suffers with all these sides. That is why the last world cup was so bad. Even if the world cups of 82, 86 and 90 were good it was never the same after 78. Football doesn't need five African teams. Lets face it South Africa Cameroon etc will never be a force. Just like the Asians and American sides. It is a joke that Holland are not there at the expense of some joke of an African team. Just 16 it should be. Then you would get the best. I mean remember this; Brazil ,Turkey, Costa Rica and China. The worst group ever.

Then FIFA must change the name just america an europe cup; dont be silly mate, if u want a true competition let little countries grow, because if they dont participate in WC thell never grow and watching the same teams winning all the time 4 ever it will turn to be boring dont u think?

And if little contries grow, the WC is going to be a very intresting and entertainig competition.

I know what you mean, I do. But th World Cup doesn't need more substandard sides. I know it's fun to see how they will fare though. But it just comes down to money and greed with all the extra sides with FIFA wanting more cash. Hell in ten years there will be fifty teams. I feel the WC should be elite. I dont want to watch crap like China vs Costa Rica. Just like Japan vs Jamaica from 98. All the groups should have an Argentina vs England. With sixteen tems there would be. More quality, less teams.

It is funny that in 68 years of World Cups that only seven teams have won it right? So I guess we are used to the same old teams. Because they always prove to be the best.

Dumbest thing I ever heard on this forum! (as dumb as Van Wikj :p ). How can you compare any country to a fart? Senegal? That team can surpirise some people during WC.
Can u read?
It's called W-O-R-L-D Cup-countries from all over the world! Not just Europe and South America. Footbal doesn't need five African teams? That sounds racist. Maybe some people like to watch African teams? People from all over the world should enjoy it.

Plus, if u don't want to watch fart teams-who tells u to watch World Cup? U can watch 1902837th episode of Cambio Dolore, or whatever it is called.

My opinion.Brian Glanville agrees:
'Should a World Cup be, as surley was first intended, for the best in the world, or for the world and his wife?:the Jamaicas and their likes? Since Havelange's coup it was too plain the way a great competition was going: or had gone."
True words.
