Thing is, Uruguay didn't breeze through qualifying. They didn't look great in the Confederations Cup. Players who had brilliant tournaments four years ago such as Lugano and Forlan are over. AND Suarez is injured.

Too much faith placed in them.

They were narrowly beaten by Brazil in the confed and were fairly comfortable in qualifying despite getting the last spot. Maybe a little too much expected but we should be seeing better than this **** Suarez or no Suarez.

Yeah Uruguay peaked for the Copa America in 2011. Since then forlan and lugano have declined massively and the loss of Suarez has left the squad threadbare.

Didn't expect Costa Rica to be so competitive. They'll give England a fright if they play like this.

Costa Rica where unlucky not to win the North American qualification some dodgy decisions went against them v USA in America

Uruguay look knackered.
I see PaddyPower have taken down betting on group D. Or is that normal?

It would be just terrific if Uruguay could get a corner i injury time and send everyone forward for my -1 bet i just took.

Edit: or that. That works too.

Godin is decent enough but overall that Uruguay defence isn't great. Caceres and Lugano aren't international level.

Their Forwards are damned good but there is weakness in that team.

They have nothing in Central Midfield that will trouble England or Italy.

This is coke and hookers time

Going to go with this one, whole year.

1000 on Costa Rica or draw @2.75/1

2750 winnings - 1000 bet = 1750 winnings.

Going to keep 500 aside for in play and back this bet if Uruguay go up 1-0.

I'm guessing it should be about 5/1 if Uruguay go up 1 -0.

I have got this far, going to go for it, but trying to secure myself at least around 2k.

Yup, nothing to suggest that Uraguay will make it out of this group. They'll be hard pushed to get anything against Italy and England.
