Suarez and Ronaldo are struggling with injuries too. Can't see those 2 teams going anywhere if those 2 are hurt.

Costa is also a bit of a round peg in a square hole, hes not the typical Spanish player and hes only played for Spain twice, so in addition to his injury hes going to have to hit the ground running to gel with the rest of his team all while the entirety of Brazil roundly boos him.
As for Suarez, I think a diminished role for him will be good for Uruguay. They've relied on him too much and Edinson Cavani is more than good enough to shoulder some of the load and its really time for him to step up for Uruguay. Suarez should be Cavani's setup man similar to Suarez/Strurridge.
And Forlan isnt washed up yet either.
