That makes it even stranger then that you consider Finland the second best team at the moment when they are 1-1. Yes they lost to who you think is the best team, but only just beating turkey?


You are correct. I think I have misjudged Finland place on week 1. As they did not have a "convincent" win over Turkey and Hungary beat Denmark with a good performance I have "corrected" it.

I think I need to explain myself... my week 1 ranking was pretty much based on the final phase of WC 23 with the addition of traditional NT (USA and UK). If you analyze the last 2 cycles you can understand why some teams are there. Hungary was the runner-up on the last 2 WC. Finland is the defending champion. Spain was the WC 22 champion. UK and USA are traditional teams that we can not underestimate but both had slightly worse campaigns recently. Denmark showed some class recently and have a competitive manager. Italy, Germany, France are always battling in WC. Brazil has improved a lot during the last 5 cycles and managed to be on quarter finals last season and have beaten Italy and Germany recently.

2nd - Finland
3rd - Spain
4th - UK
5th - Denmark
6th - USA
7th - Italy
8th - Germany
9th - France

Teams like Australia, Switzerland and Poland may enter that group...

Congratulations to Finland! After a slow start in the qualify the finnish team eliminated the strong team of Hungary, WC runner-up in the last two editions. Group C was really tough!

The WC 24 qualifiers are already decided. From the 16 NTs 12 have played in the WC 23. Norway, Slovenia, Slovakia and the 2 times runner up Hungary were eliminated during the qualify. Russia, Mexico, France and USA are the "new faces" this time. Now we have to wait the group draw to predict how things will be in this WC.

Good luck to all!

My prediction was quite good: 9 of those 10 teams qualified. My number 1 pick was eliminated in a group with other 2 great teams: Denmark and Finland. We will see great battles in this WC.
