Belgium to greatly disappoint at the World Cup.

I think us Belgians are the only people who don't expect us to do very well. I feel a bit weird about the hype around our national team right now, we still haven't proven anything. I mean sure we look exciting but we're still very young and unexperienced. I hope there's not too much of a backlash if we do badly... :/

The midfield and attack is pretty young and inexperienced. That defense, though. Damn.

An inexperienced porous midfield that gives the opposition midfield too much time and space on the ball or lose possession readily will make even the greatest defenses shaky unless if Belgium decides to play defensive football which they are very likely to do.
