Which team is everyone optimistic about in this World Cup?

Brazil and Argentina in South America.

Brazil. There are a lot of people who say this.

I am most optimistic about the Argentine team in this World Cup!

First of all, let's talk about the reasons why I am optimistic about the Argentine team: solid midfield and backfield + around Messi, diligent running frontcourt + unity, high morale and mature tactics. With Messi as the core, give full play to Messi's organizational and offensive threat; can also run fully to make up for Messi's lack of running.

Specifically: 1. Argentine has always had no shortage of people in the frontcourt, and the decision to determine how far it can go in the World Cup has always been whether the backfield and defense are stable. Although Argentina's midfield is not well-known now, they are all very practical giants.

Goalkeeper Martin is a solid gate in the club, and often has a supernatural play.

In terms of central defenders, Romero + Martinez + Otamendi - Romero is the best central defender in Serie A in 2021, and he has also performed well after moving to Tottenham; Martinez was the main centre-back for Manchester United, and in the few United games I've watched this season, he's been very good against Liverpool, good against Arsenal, not so good at Manchester City, but overall he's still very good; Otamendi used to be brave and good at tackling, but he was more frizzy and reckless, and now he should be more mature as a veteran, I haven't seen his current game in Benfica, but I checked his stats and ratings, and his performance is very good. Left-backs Acuña and Tagliafico, the main players of Sevilla and Lyon respectively, have a strong attack and a good defense, and they have performed well this season. Right-back Molina, the main player of Atletico Madrid, doesn't know much about it, so I won't say much, so as not to mislead.

The midfielders are: De Paul and Paredes in the middle, balanced in attack and defense, able to run, especially De Paul, who is typically more powerful than famous (although not less well-known); Lossel, who can play the right side and can play the middle, has excellent disc control; and Gomez and others are also strong players.

2. Frontcourt: Lautaro, Messi, Di Maria, Correa, Dybala. Although this session is not as famous as before, it can be played around Messi, Lautaro has strong impact, hard running, scoring efficiency is also good, Di Maria's big heart, but the effect may be better than before.

3. Coaching, technical tactics and morale, I am not an expert in this area, so I won't talk about it, but he is undefeated in more than a dozen consecutive games, the coach is pragmatic and stable tactics (mainly 433 and 4231), and the players are unprecedentedly united around Messi, and the momentum is flourishing.

Finally, the opponents also have their own problems, such as injuries to the French team (Pogba and N'Golo Kante) and infighting, which also increase Argentine's chances of winning the title.
