Look, only 1/4th of the countries that play competitive international football are from UEFA, how big can they be?

To be fair, Finland doesn’t exist.

Playoffs for the last four spots are coming up in two weeks. I'm pumped as hell and counting down.

Path A:

Prediction: Romania

Path B:

Prediction: Ireland

Path C:

Prediction: I hope Haaland will score tons of goals and bring Norway to its first tournament in 20 years but realistically, Serbia

Path D:

Prediction: Kosovo, who own

Because of covid-19 the games in Norway and Slovakia and probably a lot of other places will be played behind closed doors.

The thing is, though, where the hell are they going to postpone it to?

Next summer is already booked solid with World Cup 2024 qualifiers, the Nations League, the World Club Cup and a thousand other competitions.

Nations League will be cancelled for a summer would be my guess.

WTF is going to happen with the various quarantine mandates, especially regarding Denmark? It could cause a bunch of problems for the Danish players in the PL (plus the Swedish and Icelandic players) who have to go there to play their matches. In addition, it's could gently caress poo poo up in the nations league because England has instituted a mandatory quarantine for people who visit Denmark, but Iceland plays their first match there and then they go to London so will they have to field two completely different squads?

United didn't release Lindelof for the Denmark match, he's instead flying straight to Sweden.
