Due to big surprises pots are changed, and these should be the official ones.
Pot 1 (Top seeds) Austria (host) Switzerland (host) Greece (defending champion) Netherlands Pot 2 (second seeds) Croatia Italy Czech Republic Sweden Pot 3 (third seeds) Romania Germany Portugal Spain Pot 4 (bottom seeds) Poland France Turkey Russia Pot 3 is the luckiest one |

Sweden is very lucky, as is Romania.
For Greece, ideally, i would like this draw: Greece Sweden Romania Poland (or maybe France, cause sometimes it helps to have a traditional power in the group) Worst scenario: Greece Italy Germany/Spain/Portugal (take your pick) France |

I'd like this group:
Netherlands Italy Spain France Since we always underachieve and go home early, at least I'd like to lose against a team, not a band! |

No, leave England out - we have suffered enough embarassment as it is without having to return from Austria & Switzerland with 0 points.

Yes, I agree. Kick us out now... How else would those less fortunate teams ever manage to win? A bit of charity never hurt anyone... |

Italy Spain or Germany France That would prevent too many heartaches for the Dutch, Spanish (or Germans) and French - get 'em knocked out quickly... |

It's not with this mentality that we would win something. Humble and aware of own skills, but not arrogance |

I wouldn't call that arrogance... it's just some personal (and useless) incitement for a team... |

Coefficients are made by total points earned in both qualifications fo Germany 06 and Austria/Switzerland 08 divided by the matches played. First pot was for the most already decided with hosts Austria/Switzerland and Champions of Greece. For a top team being in pot 1 isn't that great because it's almost certain that they will get a tough group, indeed last night Germany and Netherlands ( the only 2 teams which could have been in pot 1 ) tried to play bad and not get points. Netherlands lost but still they have the best coefficient so they will remain in pot 1, while Germany will be in pot 3. |

England is officially interested for World Cup 2018, i guess it would be fair for them to host it. |

^ yeah ~ why fifa seems to hate england so much? i just kinda sense it sometimes T.T
i mean ~ it's not their fault to have the best league in europe ~ or maybe around the world too!! on the other hand ~ they're actually supposed to be given an extra pass like joining through all competitions without any qualifications at all ~ lol [guess others might start shooting me about this issue ~ peace yo =P] 2018 is such a long time to come ~ i mightn't just have the chance to see england winning euro cup or world cup T____T |

I think you're wrong with the order of the pots, the pot 4 is the best, and France is in it.
The order is Pot 4, Pot 3, Pot 2 and Pot 1. |

I agree, the rules need to be changed. What's the point in drawing a pathetic "FIFA Ranking" table each month when it's completely useless? They could've used the ranking table to create the pots. |

I don't think so. The coefficient uses the qualifiying results from the previous world cup qualifiers too, doesn't it?
