Some of the Pot 1 teams are going to be incredibly lucky, though. Imagine getting Peru, Senegal and Saudi Arabia, or Switzerland, Tunisia and Australia.
yeah, it kind of annoys me as once a team gets seeded it automatically improves its chances of progressing, which boosts its ranking in future competitions and qualifiers. Once on the gravy train, it's difficult to fall off. I don't think its a very fair system. It may be slightly better if there was only 1 seeded pool, but only just.
