Copa América 2019 Discussion Thread & Prediction Pool (registration closed)

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Yes it's interesting if there is a pool created for this tournament, maybe someone who is habitual to managing a pool is willing for this tournament. The Copa America is a tournament that is not easy to predict with an underdog team that might surprise and I think this will be an interesting a pool and I'm ready to wait.

In case you missed this,

By the way, if there are enough votes say may be minimum 10 then we can do it in superbru. We can decide an entry fee for the pool and find an escrow as well. Lets see the interest then?

Please comment with the expected entry fee and escrow you will like.

Sorry about that, I missed it.

Btw, I agree about Superbru as we did for EPL and CL, I will wait for more information about fees and also escrow and be ready to participate, this also adds votes to participants. Cheers!

Copa America is a very much awaited competition. And basically Copa America is still a lot of great players who are waiting for their appearance. And group B and C are certainly groups that are very difficult to predict who will qualify.

• Japan and Qatar, the two finalists of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup, are the guests teams.

Feels quite strange for me that Japan and Qatar are in this competition.
Why have they been considered for another continent's competition?
Has this been the tradition before?
What happens if Japan or Qatar win, will they be called the champions of South America?  

Anyone interested in watching the likes of Messi, Aguero, Neymar, Cavani, James Rodriguez, etc fighting for the most prestigious south american trophy?

Can't miss watching it though I am not yet sure who will win it  

Anyone considering a pool?

I am also Open for this, there is a 50-50 chance that i could also join if there was any and in that period i don't get so busy running some errands here and fail to follow up the tournament.

If Argentina and Brazil really involved in this tournament with young players then we won't see regular players such as Messi playing however these two teams always be the favourite although lately the champion of this tournament belongs to usual teams such as Chille

I doubt Messi will be missing. Any of the team can lead the trophy. They both are favorite like always. Uruguay and Chile must be counted too. I always have seen those two teams play huge in Copa America.

Brazil and Argentina are favorites as always

Do you think Argentina, with an inexperienced manager (this is actually his first job as a football manager...crazy), and a bunch of newcomers in the squad, are actually favorites? Honestly, I'll be surprise if they make it to the knockout stages, their recent performances have been awful, with and without Messi.

Honestly, I didn't even knew who is manager of Argentina before I saw your post. And it's strange that they appointed this guy without any experience. Still, despite their awful recent performance I think that they favorites together with Brazil on the paper. Bookmakers also have similar opinion - odds for Brazil win is 2.3 and 5.5 Argentina.

Anyone considering a pool?

Why not . Another chance to lose some money lol. I doubt that we can get many players to this pool, but if there will be at least 10 people interested, maybe it's worth to try to make it. We can use Superbru, I saw that Copa America predictions will be available on their website. Entry fee probably should be something like $10 or $20.

Of course, I'm in!

I like the nature of the competition and it is not going to be almost a year long competition like the UCL and EPL so it should be an interesting one.

Another chance to lose so money ? Lol! Don't be pessimistic

$20 seem fair, or we could leave it at a fixed amount of btc 0.002, perhaps.

That would be fair. We are in bitcointalk forum, we must have measured anything with bitcoin although people don't care much about it.

Chances for Brazil and Argentina to be the winner is low. I would say Uruguay will be the winner.

Will messi play in argentina? İf yes, my big favourite country is argentina. Messi is the best in my opinion.

Yes Messi is playing. Here

It's kind of strange that Messi can not perform well (fails to fill up expectation) with his national team but he is a dangerous player in his club.

Apart from the performance of Messi, being included in the team the Argentina will have physiological benefit that a best player is playing in their team. This can really boost the confidence of the team and it will surely make Argentina to be favorites for this year Copa América.

What was the benefit of "physiological benefit" over the past decent. Nothing. Yes, Messi is one of the best players but that is not going to bring any extra benefit unless the team is oerforming together.

Argentina has always been one of the favourites team together with Brazil to win this competition.Other teams have been a surprise when they have won it like Chile for example.What is good about this competition is that we rarely will see a 0-0 game and that means this competition produces good football to watch.

Messi is back for Argentina and his mere presence means they start as favourites to win the cup, also the squad selection of Argentina has been converted into a meme which is hilarious. Brazil has many talented players including the world’s most expensive player Neymar, hence it’s no surprise that they too are the favourites. What I would love to see is these two teams battling for the cup in the finals, it’ll be the perfect ending for this competition.

Thanks for the thread. I generally really really dislike the off season for club football in Europe, and I got to say the format for copa keeps getting weirder, but for as long as we can find entertainment in Latin American football, I'm all game.

Haven't got my hooks into any of the teams properly yet but oh Mexico look like a fiery option. Suarez is probably going to still star and so will GOAT you know who, but I'm really feeling good about some of the upstarts like Chile as swogerino says. Anyone know where they have good outrights yet?

The news that Messi playing this Copa America is being taken positively by everyone including the Argentina team. Going into the match with positive sentiments and pressuring other teams with the star player are few things which are being done to have physiological advantage. However i do agree that Messi has to perform well on the ground as well for Argentina to win the title.

Argentina won Copa America last at 1993 while Brazil at 2007. Chile was the champion on the last two season. Uruguay is the most winner of this trophy. Argentina and Brazil are all time favorite but their recent performance is way bad than others. Others team are not surprised because it's almost a common fact in Copa America for the last decent.

I have added you too.

It's a reasonable amount I have no problem

Even better.

There may also be many who predict that Argentina and Brazil are the favorites. But that is only a prediction of many people. For me, maybe Brazil and Chile might be the champion for Copa America. Actually it is very difficult to predict who will win in this competition because other teams are also impossible to play without the championship aim. So we will enjoy every match.

I would say Uruguay and Brazil have the chance alomg with Argentina. Argentina is already off form but Copa is something where small team becomes a big team even. So, I think Argentina can be a strong team even.

Urugay might also be considered a champion favorite too. Argentina has always been a runner up in every competition  Maybe in this competition Argentina remains the favorite runner up like before. Argentine players are good, but if you look at the back line they are really worrying.
