Wish Sweeden was in Wales group or Denmark's group. They're good enough for a WC. Group A is absurdly tough for that to happen though.

Quite a few groups in there not worth watching.

Plus side of the draw, Gareth Bale has a chance to actually play in a World Cup!

Poland and Ukraine both have a good chance of qualifying. That could be fun for the Russians.

ffs, whenever we get a piss easy group we always end up overconfident and doing terrible.

My guess is we'll scrape through in second.

Croatia probably can't believe their luck.

I hope the Government have set aside some money so we can rebuild Hadrian's Wall before the game against Scotland at Wembley.

Disagree its the tightest group imo

Croatia imo probably won't finish top

Iceland are currently top of their group despite having Netherlands, Turkey and Czech Republic in it.

Turkey are always a wild card and even if they won't qualify due to their consistency, they can on their day beat big nations

Ukraine another nation who are a wild card and on their day can take a big nation. Atm only 3 points behind spain in their euro group. Added incentive of going to Russia

Finland - They won't qualify but at the same time they aren't a Malta, Andorra and etc. They won't go to a game thinking we will never win lets just try to hang on. They can win a few games and probably think there aren't any teams here that we need to be scared about

Wow, how far have Turkey slipped in the rankings

48th but to be honest their rankings have always been 30+. I remember that they reached 8th once but that was after the 02 WC. They tend to do well in tournaments but trouble is they never qualify. :LOL:
