Ayatollah Hermione 17219 Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 At the moment, we have 42 teams (lol) who have qualified with 6 more to come in the playoffs. What is pretty apparent by looking at these pots is that, while everyone knows the expansion is a ridiculous idea, it’s also eliminated the Group of Death entirely. I suppose to be replaced by more jeopardy in the knockouts. Anyway, 104 games will be played, up from 64. Mostly played in blistering US heat, in half empty stadiums because the tickets are a fortune and at a dodgy time for us to watch it What a time to be alive. Get your smart money on the USA making the semis now that Infantino is best friends with Trump. Haiti ffs 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 39120 Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Not the worst draw for the Republic. Beat the Czechs and we're at home to (most likely) Denmark. NI are fucked though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 62968 Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Howay, they didn't not try cos they knew they could just play some additional games and maybe get through that way. That makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes no sense. I didn’t say that I’m saying that it absolutely removed a lot of the jeopardy of the group though. Means they didn’t have to play a knackered Isak for starters. Especially now that they’re with a plum draw in the playoffs. Out of the four in there, I’d pick them to get through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
