Seriously: Who’s Still Interested in This World Ranking List?
Everyone who wants an easy World Cup group?
Although this is a lie. If you are upset, you will draw the lot and get the opponents from Pot 2. What is the difference between France playing against Germany or Germany playing against France? Pot 3 and 4 then fall into a World Cup and so it is possible for the group heads and teams to be out of pot 2 if you behave as stupid as our boys in 2018, Spaniards in 2014 or Italians in 2010.
And this is wrong. Europe would probably be split into pots 1 and 2, but for example all teams would end up in South America 3, etc. Groups for the World Cup are called differently than those for EM, so it is very important to have a group leader. For example, at this time it may be possible to form a group from France, Germany, USA and Colombia if USA or CONCACAF is placed in pot 4.
The only thing you know for sure is that the top 7 nations + hosts each make up a group head.
For example, in 2014 it came in Group D with Uruguay, Italy and England and since the Urus were brains, you couldn’t tell me whether England or Italy were so low in the world rankings
