Really? You seriously think Belgium, Turkey, B & H, and Wales play entertaining football and have more of a 0% chance of winning the World Cup? Belgium hasn't qualified for a tournament since 2002.
Slovenia, Greece, Serbia, Denmark and Switzerland couldn't make it out of relatively easy groups in 2010. Slovenia failed against USA, Greece failed against Korea, Serbia failed against Ghana and Australia, Denmark failed against Japan and Switzerland failed against both Chile AND Honduras after beating Spain! All garbage teams right?
Europe doesn't play attractive football either. The next time Switzerland plays an entertaining game will be the first.
