Some of the best sides we've ever seen have come from the South Americas no-one can argue with that.
With Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil all with multiple titles.
However when you look at the South American qualification group and realise ( as i have done) this is what you get.
Apologies I couldn't fit in all 10 nations.
10 nations from South America of which 6 shall qualify automatically and 7th place currently Paraguay shall get a play off against some Asian, African or Oceania nation making it likely that 7of10 South Americans shall qualify .
I mean that's really fair right?
Other parts of the world have good teams too , when I looked at the African qualification schedule I'm like wtf?
9 groups A--I of 6 nations , that's 54 nations but only 9 shall qualify and I think that will also be a record for number of African nations taking part.
This is farcical, and I remember a time when Europe was in the firing range for having too many nations represented.
Now it appears ( though plans gave chopped and changed) UEFAs nations will have 55 competing for 16 places.
This is unacceptable and the world cup shall be spread over Canada, USA and Mexico, so make sure if you're going to have travel plans sorted because if you're France say, you could start in Eastern Canada, move to the south of the US and then Mexico before reaching the ¼finals , ridiculous idea. One country , two adjoining neighbours at max should host the tournament and this means 3 automatic host entries? No I instantly don't like it.
South America, to have 60% of their nations guaranteed qualification is way out of date, 70% if 7th placed of 10 wins a play off, when the rest have over 40 nations competing. Something must be done , I'm going to write to my MP about this corruption , who's that again? Nicola Sturgeon ? Mibbee not. AAAARRRGGHH!!
