Isn't Uzbek in the pot with Iraq and uae?
I thought ksa was with Qatar, Aussie? Sorry if I am mistaken

Edit - just saw Iraq ranked above them,
thanks for letting me know!

what a nightmare of a pot this would be:
Iran
Australia
Saudi
Jordan
China
N Korea

I'll stop giving myself heart attacks and start paying attention to ratings.

Do you think Korea will be Pot A when all said and done? Any other teams you think may shift pots by then as well?

I honestly think we need a hard group to fight in. I think that's what this generation of players is missing, they're not battle hardened. They sorta had it all handed to them 🤣. Imo that's why CONCACAF and AFCON teams go further than us, they fight in a vipers pit every cycle and come out battle hardened but we get easy qualification now for 2 cycles

afcon teams had a horrific 2018 world cup 0 teams in the last 16

the harder the group the more points the top teams will drop so i still expect us to make it nonetheless

Wc pot b is must. With general max is r32 to even get there need to be in pot b.
if we go to wc with general in pot c no way tm go to r32.
