I still think Pot 4 will be a bit more dangerous than Pot 3 thanks to Ecuador, Wales and Peru, though I guess you can be lucky and avoid all three...

America is 1 continent not 2 , they are 10 countries in southern part +20-30 in north , they can make groups just like others ,

hé no, they divided the continent to ensure the qualif of USA , they play vs islands without any experience in football , that's why they qualify,they are always in 

they know  they have no  chance vs south american teams , this system of cheating is shameful

Knowing our luck Poland will draw Canada now and promptly lose their first WC match to a CONCACAF team

 

is 4-0-0 vs CONCACAF teams (7-0 vs  in 1974, 3-1 vs in 1978, 3-1 vs in 2002 and 2-1 vs in 2006).

I mean, hey, whatever you want!

Except that CONCACAF and CONMEBOL existed since 1948 and since 1958 when the qualifications started by continent there were different qualifiers for north and south america. (just like volleyball and norcaeca and csv)

I never really got that argument anyway.  North and South America are one continent, but Europe is not just a peninsula of the Eurasian continent?  You can even throw Africa in there since the Sinai Isthmus is the same as the Panamanian Isthmus.  And let's not even get into cultural differences.  Besides, Europe gets more quotas than Europe anyway.

Not even an argument...... it was never an issue, there were always separate qualification tournaments, with 24,32 and even next time with 48

As we also often see in Olympic qualification, the number of federations is vastly different and it happens that it would be similar if you divided the world in 4 zones instead of having some with 10 teams and some with 50...Europe (and South America, which will get to qualify at least 60% of their teams next times) get more teams but remember what was happening when, with the old FIFA ranking until 2018, the coefficient of a zone was determined by intercontinental games, results were so one sided in favor of UEFA and CONMEBOL against the rest that they had to introduce a completely made up minimum that in practice was giving N. American, Asian and African teams 3,4, sometimes 6 times the number of points that they earned "on the field"

What about UK , they participate under 1 flag in the olympic games and 4 in WC to increase their chance of qualification 

 

they are not the maker of laws , they are the law 

[bestmen 2,926]

it's official ,the federation of football  has filed complaint against the referee , after the scadal he comited 

and claims to replay the match 

 

i know that FIFA will reject , the law of money wins ,not the justice 

[bestmen 2,926]

this is what said Michel platini about this disaster  : the referee was shameful , it's possible to replay the match like we did vs Belgium in 1981
