i can't see a big difference between france/england mexico/usa uruguay/slovenia and

algeria/south africa

France/England, maybe.  Of course, France should have been seeded instead of England (if they had used current rankings).  On their day I think France are a side with more potential than England.

Mexico/USA, yes, are at a similar level.  Mexico has more outstanding individual talent, to be fair.

Uruguay is a far better side than Slovenia.  Slovenia is probably the weakest European team to make it (maybe Greece is weaker).  Uruguay is a strong team with some outstanding individuals.

South Africa are playing at home.  Algeria is the worst African team to qualify.  Any team playing at home gets a big boost in what is expected of them, and I am far happier for the USA to be playing Algeria than South Africa, I can tell you that.

yes i'm sure the USA arre glad they have algeria instead of south sfrica,but as an england fan neither of those teams would worry me

for the record thugh i'd say

england and either usa/slovenia to qualify

france and either uruguay/mexico to qualify
