Poland and Russia are manageable seeds to face. Russia could be fiddly being the hosts but there isn't that much to fear in them. Belgium wouldn't be too bad either. They have the players bit not necessarily the team. Also it would be good to put the record straight with Iceland. From pot 4 we wouldn't want Serbia.
If you aren't interested OK that;s up to you but please don't reply just to say so.

Russia are lowest ranked team in the last 32, followed by Saudi Arabia. Theoretically they could both be in the same group, but unlikely. Due to the limitation of countries from the same conference not being allowed in the same group, with the exception of a maximum of two UEFA countries in any group there is a strong chance of us getting Argentina or Brazil.
Given how poor we were at the last World Cup I hope we end up in the “ Group of Death” that way not too embarrassing if we fail to reach knock out stage but tails are up if we do.
Worst case draw Brazil Egypt Serbia
Best case draw Russia Iran Panama
My prediction
Argentina Denmark Japan

As Egyptian: - Best case scenario: Russia - Peru - Egypt - Panama Portugal and Poland from pot 1 are OK , Switzerland and England from pot 2 are OK , Australia and Saudi Arabia from pot 4 are OK
- Worst case scenario: Germany - Spain - Egypt - Japan I prefer to avoid Brazil and France from pot 1 - Croatia and Uruguay from pot 2 - Korea and Serbia from pot 4
Personally I wish to be with England in the same group, It will be a nice game. I wish to meet Stoke fans there.

50 years of every whiter than white useless pratt in charge of England , this time its Southgate, I wonder which vegetable he will be likened to. Radish gets my vote.
It's time we (England) turned up and played the week in week out football that we are capable of that we see in the prem. That said we would still only be good enough for the quarters imo.
We shouldn't fear anyone however but I'd hate to get Russia. (so it's guaranteed)

Southgate has taken 2 promising England under 21 teams to major tournaments and got knocked out in the 1st round of both - so he is going to have to break his duck somehow. How he got that job after his previous managerial feck-up is beyond me, how he then managed to land the senior job is beyond belief
We now have the worst manager we have ever had(and there has been some shite ones) taking the most mediocre squad of England players of all time to the world cup, does it really matter who we get - does anybody even give a rats feck anymore, can we really get behind a team that includes Sturridge, Sterling, Lingard, Hart, Oxlade & co.
The whole tournament will be a dive fest, full of cheating bastards who would sell there own grannies to win, while setting an appalling example to every upcoming youngster, we will have to listen to commentators waxing lyrical about Spain having 700 consecutive passes without losing the ball, but also never getting out of their own half.
Moronic pissed England fans will be kissing the badge while singing 2 world wars and one world cup and then with a tear in their eye belt out the German national anthem(god save the queen) - it's beyond tedious
