The USA's group is tough, no doubt, but it isn't the Group of Death - that hounour goes to Netherlands, Argentina, Serbia & Montenegro and Ivory Coast. Not a bad team there.

I still think the USA could get through. Getting a result against the Czech Republic (who are getting on a bit) or Italy isn't totally out of the question.

World Cup teams don't train together for 4 years, at least not regularly, either. The best players from any given country are generally in England, playing English Premiere League ball (arguably the best of the best soccer).

If the very best NBA players trained together for 4 years...
