Of course Portugal would get Spain. I'm just glad that they aren't in the group of death for like the third time in a row.
In general, the groups seem balanced overall. --- GameFlux: Unofficial GameFAQs board browser ... Copied to Clipboard!

England get a very manageable group coupled with an extremely favorable second round match if they make it through. I fully expect us to fuck this up

Just for fun, I averaged the current FIFA rankings for each group:
A - 45.00 B - 20.25 C - 17.75 D - 23.25 E - 18.25 F - 23.50 G - 25.75 H - 24.50 Based on this silly metric alone, it seems like Group C is the strongest (as France, Peru, and Denmark are all ranked in the top 12). Group A is the far n away joke. --- Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

I mean, I would expect that to always be the case, because the Host normally always has the worst Pot 1 seed by far.

Yeah Group A has the two lowest ranked teams in them, Egypt must be quite happy (not that they're guaranteed to finish second).
Portugal/Spain will be a fun match, but the two should advance Group C is technically the group of death in terms of rankings I can see all four progressing Go Iceland Go Costa Rica Mexico is unfortunate again, Sweden is a good team England/Belgium should progress I feel Poland will choke this group somehow. --- Congratulations to BKSheikah for winning the guru ...

Yeah I can see H going to Colombia/Senegal. Seems like the most Polish outcome.

Central American teams are pretty good at getting draws against stronger opponents so that is something that can happen.

The third and fourth pots were oddly mediocre this year...it doesn't feel like a lot of teams are in top form. --- Shine on, you crazy diamond. ... Copied to Clipboard!

MrSmartGuy posted...Uh, what? Iceland and Nigeria are almost assuredly the best teams in Pot 3 and 4, respectively..... They changed the pots this year so that it is by ranking and not geographical. This makes it so good non-Europe/South American teams don't get shafted. Of course this is a weaker group relative to 2014 where 23/24 top ranked teams (as of Oct. 2013) made the cup (20th ranked Ukraine missed out) while for 2018 we are missing Chile (9), Wales (14), Italy (15), Netherlands (20), Northern Ireland (23) and Slovakia (24) and regional powerhouse United States also failed to qualify leaving a much weaker CONCACAF group. --- Congratulations to BKSheikah for winning the guru ...
