Looking at that, pot 3 is going to make the difference. Lots of teams I’d rather not face, but a few I’d be confident against.

We won’t get lucky enough to draw Qatar in pot 1 but on the flip side we can’t face Canada in pot 4.

Based on the odds, not great for the US.

Brazil/Argentina, Poland, Wales would be a group of death nightmare.

The really nice part is not having to face the other teams in pot #2

That’s a pretty favorable draw for the US isn’t it?

18 of the top FIFA teams if Wales wins.

Not really. England is ranked 6, Iran 21 and Wales 18. USA is 15 in comparison. 
 

No gimmies.

I'll give a fairly bold prediction... England don't get out of that group.

I like the draw.

 

England - I love this one.  Great to be in the special underdog position vs. England rather than say Brazil, Netherlands, or Spain.  I think this is a really tough game for England as they go in underestimating the US and as a HUGE favorite.

Iran - Yeah, this one sucks a bit but we do have a revenge factor going here.

Wales/Scotland - These guys are good teams for us in my opinion.  We will be the better, more fit, more athletic team against either of them.

Ukraine - This one could be a nightmare for anyone though the opposite could occur as well.  Hard to say really.

City eeked it out at home today against Atletico on the scoresheet but looked the better team, as expected. Gabriel Jesus will be unavailable for the next game due to yellow card accumulation.

Chelsea - Real Madrid tomorrow. I have no idea what to expect.

Chelsea sheeted the bed over the weekend.  No doubt all the extra crap is an issue.  Anything can happen.

I wonder if the "us against the world" well is starting to dry up. We've got a bunch of guys on the back line set to leave in the summer and I wonder if they've started to pack it in. Hopefully they can find some juice for a CL game.

Certainly that is the risk

Looks like Erik ten Hag will be the next manager at Man Utd. 

Probably the best option we could hope for and now let the purge begin.
