The seeding seems a little weird. 4th seeds seem almost as strong as the 2nd seeds.

only the 1st pot of south africa, brazil, italy, germany, england, holland, spain and argentina is seeded

The other 3 pots are all based on where the country qualified from as FIFA want to keep sides from the same continents apart!!
FIFA just seem to make there own rules up as they go, the first pot is off world rankings but France are higher than the English but England are in pot 1, im not complaining but how the hell did they come up with that?

Is It something to do with France not winning there group?
England had a far better qualification process

Think we actually got seeded as the 5th side so easily made it in with the big boys

You would think the world cup is pretty much between the seeded sides (not south africa obviously)
