.....things are looking up for the US, we seem to have gotten all our injuries out of the way well before the Cup started.

I think with the poor pitches and the crazy ball this World Cup is wide open and a team like the US could go a lot deeper in the Cup than had it been played without those equalizing factors. There is also the possibility that skill on the ball with such poor conditions will show up more evidently because of those conditions.

France isn't going to do much, they really shouldn't have even made the trip to SA.
