3 people killed..

It's only a few months away how are they not nearly finished yet

[Novo]

it was 94% done apparently

[Drew.]

Yeah I think it was almost done, a crane has fallen on it they've said

[King Gizzard]

Doesn't look that done in that pic regardless of the collapse

This shouldn't delay anything right?

Also I'm saddened by hearing this

[BBfanUSA]

Russia is the lowest ranked European team that qualified so more than likely they'll be put into Pot 3.

[Novo]

imagine if the GOAT world cup moment ever actually happened and Russia knocked USA out, and something iconic happens like Putin runs onto the pitch and celebrates with the team

**** that is to good to be true actually

[BBfanUSA]

The Draw is this week, Dec 6th to be exact but the allocation for the pots will be today.

[Shaun]

who're the top seeds gonna be then?

*guesses*

Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Spain, Uruguay, Colombia, Italy and...er... i don't know

Switzerland and Belgium are in the top 10 rankings but I really can't see why they'd be top seeds.

[BBfanUSA]

The pots, aw man, A Group with Iran, US, Russia in it would've been hilarious.

[Drew.]

The draw sounds too confusing.. Only European teams can have two sides in a group so we could potentially get Spain, Chile and Japan

[BBfanUSA]

Everyone's probably hoping Please be put in Switzerland's Group.

A guy elsewhere said that the Round of 16 will be just the South American and Euro teams. I beg to differ, I can easily see the US, Japan get in and Mexico and South Korea too.

[Drew.]

An african side will hopefully make it out the groups

Ivory Coast > USA

[BBfanUSA]

And Ivory Coast and Nigera and Ghana. To think that not a single CONCACAF or AFC can make (Although I do admit they're going to need a bit of help with the draw) it is a bit silly.

Also there will be a pot x, To ensure there's only 2 Euro teams per group they will be drawing one from pot 4 I think and then a Pot X from the seeded South America teams and they'll be put in the same group I think. The rest will be put into pot 1 if they're not drawn, basically the 9th Euro team will be the 8th team in the 2nd pot (With Africa/Unseeded S.American)

Fairest thing to do in my opinion.

Messi will never surpass Pele or Maradona in terms of greatness until he wins the World cup.

This is the best chance he'll get, on his home continent.

Totally agree with that.

[BBfanUSA]

Also this is my first draw that I'm really watching and trying to understand. *HEAD EXPLODES*

[Chuck]

and the draw is ridiculous by the way, have no idea how it works but I should fear nobody.

[King Gizzard]

Alot of luck and the help of your teammates in world cups though, and it's one off games in the latter stages so it's very much a lottery, i think Messi > both of them in terms of overall games and play

[King Gizzard]

[Brother Leon]

It's not even winning it, he needs to at least have a good one first

[Shaun]

the ball

[BBfanUSA]

IDC about the ball design but i heard Adidas worked with non endorsement players to make sure the ball was a players' ball. Kinda nice
