Here are the four pots based on the FIFA World Rankings of October 2017, with Russia being the lowest ranked team in the tournament. Mainly due to them not participating in the WC Qualifiers and the low amount of points you earn from winning friendlies. I don't think Pot 3 and Pot 4 have much of a chance against any of the Pot 1(-Russia/Poland) and majority of the Pot 2 teams really, with maybe the exception of Denmark and Iceland. But, there will guaranteed be some unexpecting results nontheless. Hopefully we will see some very interesting groups.
The draw will be held on December 1.

@Ramaboy This is only a simulator though and it could be a lot worse for England when the real draw happen. They still got time to improve but I doubt we can expect them to go all the way. :(

I really hope the Albiceleste (Argentina) will win the cup!

@WorldCupHL I do believe they got enough quality at least. They just need to sort their problem out before world cup and work better as a team. Also, if I was Sampaoli, I would proplably drop some player who haven't been consistent enough like Di Maria.

Portugal to win the World Cup is favorite apparently, doesnt shock me at all in here... fanboying has won it over reflection in this forum...

Germany, Spain or Brazil for me, I don’t see France winning it. Deschamps has so many players that he keeps switching formations and squads without getting a clear Starting XI nor a specific style with intent between starters... what could be France main force « potential « would probably turn into main weakness... Deschamps should make squad decisions ASAP.

Other than Germany, I can't really think of a NATL team that doesn't do that until a few months before a major competition. Hell, last WC Diego Costa wasn't even Spanish until like 8 months before.

@tiki This post was made a long time ago, not long after the Euro, thats why Portugal is so high ranked. :P I mean, technically, Russia, England and Italy is higher rated than Spain. So, for me, there is something wrong with that poll. Actually, we got a more recent one wich is much more credible. Why don't you comment on that one instead of digging this obsolete one. :P
@Sunflash I swear, Diego Costa switch to Spain was never a good move, for anyone involved. :(

Messi = 0 goals in World Cup knockout rounds and yet said said that football needs to pay its debt for him so that he wins World Cup...

Well that's just blatant flaming. You could at least have the common curtsy to try and disguise it.

Madrididiots is a very tiny pourcentage of Madrid fans but are mostly Penaldians, they usually fuck logic, dont watch football or play it, and think a tap in + a celebration is worth being considered GOAT. Im glad to announce you you are fully part of these valuable football fans, i think you already know it :) recognize some of your reasoning up there ?
