  1. Just to show how much depth UEFA has, a team that has qualified for the World Cup is in the fourth pot!

    I don't like UEFA's decision to go for groups of 5 or 6 teams plus play-offs. I think groups of 7 or 8 teams without play-offs made a lot more sense (with the top two teams advancing to the finals).

    Groups of 7 or 8 teams guarantee from 12 to 14 competitive games. On the other hand, this format will give some teams only 8 competitive games before they play in the finals.

    1. dont you think that would be boring though?
      play offs make everything more interesting + a knock out game brings the tension up more.

  2. Interesting to note that three of the teams in pot 1 were all in he same qualifying group for Euro 2008: England, Croatia, Russia.

  3. It's more impressive to look at where Slovenia were for the 2010 WCQ draw: fifth pot.
