Uruguay are a bloddy shambles. Get rid of that 4-4-2 system. There is a reason why hardly anyone plays with it.

Costa Rica aren't as shit as many people are making out. They came 2nd in North American qualifying behind the US, England/Uruguay/Italy should beat them, but they're not a micky mouse team and I fancy them to get a few points in this group.

Probably - even if we lose tonight we'd only be a point off Uruguay so it would be in our hands. Though it's becoming increasingly obvious that we cannot write off Costa Rica.

Uruguay are absolutely awful defensively in the air and dealing with pace. As long as we keep it simple we'll definitely have a chance.

The keeper could make it look like he is interested at least

BBC: "Uruguay have never lost to Costa Rica in eight previous meetings (W6, D2). "
This should be a walkover. Should. ![]() What a great World Cup so far. Only 2 teams have failed to score in their games. |

No they are not, brilliant turnaround, Joel Campbell has been brilliant, surely the time has come for Suarez to come on and see if he can turn it round.

I don't think Muslera likes diving. Unusual for a footballer.

Goodness, that wasn't far away.
Uruguay are there for the taking by these Costa Ricans. |

Arsenal might just have found their striker for next season.
