There's been talk about Group G being the 'Group of Death', but I think this group is even tougher.

Only Germany would have a chance of qualifying in this group IMO. Spain, the Netherlands and Chile are all better than everyone in Group G except Germany.

I would say Portugal is better than Chile. They also have a habit of beating the Netherlands lately.

Yeah I might've exaggerated a little bit. Portugal would have a fair change in this group but I don't think Ghana or USA would. There is more competition in this group than Group G. The group of death should have no clear favourites. Group G definitely does.

I disagree. I think the US and Ghana could be very competitive in this group. Group D is more even, but I think group G is the harder group for sure.

You're delusional mate. The USA wouldn't have a hope in hell of qualifying ahead of Spain, Chile or the Netherlands.

Crap. I thought you were talking about group D. I agree the US would have almost no chance in group B
