I think they are in a very difficult group, but definitely The USA has a chance of getting in the last 8 or 4 if they can overcome the first round, but hopefully for the they don't have to face Brazil early in the next round like they did in 1994. But who knows The USA can be the big surprise of this world cup.

Our top players can play with the best in the world, the place the US is lacking is the depth that countries like England, Italy and the Netherlands posess. If the US can stay healthy we can go a long way in this World Cup.

Italian team are aging a bit, so USA have a chance of a draw, but no more. Ghana will beat them though.

They will make it to the semifinals, and here is why.  Italy has both Totti and Vieri coming off injury, they will not be in playing shape yet.  The Czech Republic relies too much on Nedved, who is not playing well right now.  He is also a headcase who will do something to hurt his team at some point.  The US wins the group, and Italy finishes second.  Then the US will beat Ukraine because the US is simply better, and then eliminate an overrated French side in the quarterfinals.  Netherlands will beat the US in the semis.

Watch for Italy to do it. Italy is notoriously slow out of the gate but if they make the final no matter the opponent, they will win. They have improved their offence while still maintaining a strong defensive approach. Of course, it goes without saying that finishing 2nd in their group is and should not be their objective! :o)\nCan USA win? i don't think so..Clearly you know there is something wrong with the FIFA ranking system when they are ranked ahead of such countries as Italy. The US is a good team but not that good and in a tough group.

I am so proud of the team especially for making it out of a group whom everyone thought was the group of death. The US coach wrote them off. It shows how you should not underestimate anyone in football. Their game with the US was not as strong as what they showed against the Czechs but that could be because they were aware of the importance of the game and were probably tense. I hope they bring that game back against the Brazilians. And they can make an impression. If they can hold the Brazilians, that will be wonderful, and if they are amazing enough to beat the Brazilians......

No doubt about. It is a matter of time for USA soccer to explode in the big stage. It is bound to happen.

Again, yes. But not this year. They are not as strong a team as they were compared to past years. England and Netherlands are strong too. So this world cup will be one of the more exciting ones

Anything is possible, and a lot depends on the draw.\n\nHowever, it is unlikely because the USA are a long way from being in the top 8 international teams, and will probably struggle to qualify from their group.

I think it will be tough for USA to improve on 2002 because they have a decent shot of advancing, but I don't feel that they will win the group, thus would most likely end up playing Brazil, and I hate to say it but I just don't see Landon and the rest of the crew beating Brazil.  So while this wouldn't be an improvement over the last world cup, there really would be no shame bowing out to Brazil in any round.

If they do make it beyond the group stage, that alone will be a testiment to how U.S. soccer is improving. Many people are complaining about what a tough group the U.S. is in, and they are right about that - but this is a chance to show what they can do. With that said, will they make it? I'd give it a 30% chance.

The U.S. team has already reached the depth to compete at the highest level.  With their great young stars, getting experience overseas they are a team that will shine in this years World Cup.  Their performance in the 2002 World Cup was a great start to what looks to be a successful couple of years for the U.S. national team.

USA has a great chance at being number #1 or #2 in the group.Johnson will give every team a hard time with his speed.Also Donovan is playing very unselfishly latly.Even is the MLS game this weekend he had 2 assists.That is what we need from him in the World Cup.Sorry tho if they get number 2 in the group,they will lose to brazil in Dortmund the 27 of june.You never know they might be #1 in their group and then they would get through the 1st round!
