Do you actually think that? (I know you arent saying it wasnt a really good world cup, and you are just talking about the quality, it wasnt the worst EVER though was it?)
I'd be jealous. Lower expectations from the press and fans, opportunities for other players, and deserved getting praise for a fantastic world cup. Its just a much more realistic and nicer setup (it seems) than the circus that's preceded it since, really the 90s.
A bit of envy/jealousy isnt...
