Imagine the scenes if 2 teams like that were playing eachother in the knock outs. Remember Uruguay v Ghana and how much it meant to both teams? A boring pedestrian paced game between England and Belgium is what we will get instead. A fascinating tactical battle it will be called. Then Kane pen. Boring

Seedings should be worked out on average possession, passing accuracy and general non-Englishness.

Shouldn't be any pots. Should be totally random.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nobody wants a group of Canada, Iran, Japan and Qatar though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And you wouldn't want England, Germany, Brazil and Portugal no?

Should be totally fair, not biased in favour of teams that don't deserve it.

Why are Poland in Pot 3 yet playoff qualifiers Portugal get Pot 1? Both should be in 3
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They do deserve it. They are better teams according to the metrics FIFA uses to rank teams, end of.

Qatar aside but the host has to be in Pot 1 and they are always in Group A.

This has happened in all UEFA and FIFA competitions for decades the fact it shocks people is hilarious.

Seedings shud b base on how many Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds songs the coach can name in 5 minits

Seedings should be based on how many pens you got in the previous tournament. Then England would be sorted

certainly not the tv stations

Hope Qatar and Saudi Arabia or on opposite sides of the draw. That's the dream final right there.

And the TV stations don't want it because the viewers and fans don't want it.

From 1970, only 8 different teams have reach the wc finale, is boring

Only 12 dufferent teams since furst one in 1930

Germany would be favourites.

just a few thoughts

The qualifying should count for something

10 teams finished the group stages winners in Europe alone.
Portugal was a wild card
Poland the same
Wales/Ukraine/Scotland will be the same

Canada wins the group above Mexico and USA
but goes to lower pot

Itly havent made the last 2 world cups, bet they are pot 1 for next European qualifiers.

get back to random draw like FA cup, or play whoever comes out regardless where they come from deal with playing hard games if that the draw.

roll on the FIFA draw.

Dangerous thinking there. If you could kindly join me in the other room then you shall be taken care of, whilst we roll out the World Super League.

I raised the point earlier, if Portugal had been drawn in Ukraine's qualifying path, would they be in pot 4 for tomorrow's draw? Why is the draw even being made before it has been decided who has qualified? The seeding is based on rankings of qualified teams. Putin being a cant should not make you 4th seeds when you would have been higher if he hadn't been a cant. Priorities all wrong. Imagine if England were put down to 4th seeds just because Prince Andrew pumped kids. Essentially the same thing but actually related to the nation itself and not completely unrelated like Scotland/Wales/Ukraine are having to deal with.

I am kinda happy* Italy not qualfie as can avoid this big stinkin krupped mess

It's ok you can support USA and Scotland

did Scotland qualify?

I don't know. But we'd be pot 4 because Putin has a small peniiis

oh wow yer

Forza Scotland

think USA will win it tho

"I expect the winners to come from Pot 1."

Well that makes sense OP, they are generally the best teams so there is a high chance. 🤦‍♂️

Whut previus wurld cup winners not in pot1?

Uruguay
Germany
England
