Who do you want in your World Cup Group. The draw is coming up on Friday. England are seeded, as far as I know.

The group I'd like:

England, Sweden, Ukraine, Australia,

That'd wouldn't be a bad group but it won't be easy either. We probably would beat the Australians and Ukrainians, not sure about the Swedes, they're always tough.

That group would be amazing, we'd cruise through. Problem is though, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have a decent team in there so we don't get complacent.

[skojvivi]

So Sweden isn't decent?

Well, I would like to see Poland, Saudi Arabia and Tunisia.

Ukraine wont be know push overs either would like group where we can get through obviously but i fell we will get a big team in out group!

So i say: England Iran Saudi Arabia Holland/Italy

[karvha]

I'd like to see.

England, Australia, USA and Trinidad & Tobago

[Beatle]

It doesn't bother me who we get.

If England want to win the World Cup then you've got to beat whoever is put out infront of you.

None of these are possible as the rules state that, with the exception of Europe, no two countries from the same continent/qualifying region can be in the same group (Iran&SA in 1st case, USA&Trin&Tob in 2nd)

I don´t care about the groups so much,
more about the chick, who will make the draw. :thumb:

[Rufer]

by the way:

here are the pots for the draw:








comment:
In pot 3 are nine teams, because Europe is allowed to have max. 2 teams in one group.
In 2002 it was the same, there were 11 European teams in one pot.
They will draw them randomly and the last team from pot 3 will work as a pot 4 team.
This is complicated, but FIFA has to do it,
because of the max. teams per continent constraint.
