@sixineurope @ALeibovici אנחנו כישראלים מאמינים שהמשטר הוא פסיכופת ופנאט והכל אבל תכלס? הם אסלאמיסטים אבל גם סופר פרגמטיים. האיום שלהם על העולם הוא לא הגרעין, זה רק תוסף. האיום שלהם הוא דרך טרור ודרך פרוקסי
עברית

@sixineurope @ALeibovici צודק, אבל זה מעולם לא היה החשש.
יש קריקטורה של שמאל במערב - שמנסה תכלס להגיד שהמערב (שמבחינתם הוא כמובן האימפריאליסט הרשע) לא יפיל מדינה גרעינית. הם צודקים - אבל הם טועים בזה שזה טוב.
איראן גרעינית = משטר בטוח

יום יבוא וילד ממג'דל שאמס יוביל אותנו למונדיאל.
Asaf Ackerman™@AckermanAsaf
אחרי שהעפיל למונדיאל בגיל 40, אדין דזקו בהתרגשות גדולה סיפר: "העפלה הזו למונדיאל מוקדשת לחברים שלי, בגיל 6 הייתי בכל יום אחרי הצהריים יוצא לרחוב לשחק איתם כדורגל, יום אחד אמא שלי כעסה ולא איפשרה לי לצאת, ואז נפלה פצצה ברחוב וכל החברים שלי מתו, זה עבורם". ❤️🇧🇦

@Krzws1 @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata first of all, those games are extra, not universally played by each team. in some ways it's a punishment for not being able to qualify without playoffs. also, 5->7 means 4 extra games (2 against each extra team)
also- 5 teams is also not good, for the reason i said before
English

@Botzer_Ophir @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata You have same thing already with 5 teams in group that one team doesn't play in the final day. And those are not too big, it's literally just 2 more games. Same games that are already played in play-offs
English

We believe FIFA should re-evaluate their practice of putting the hosts automatically to Pot 1.
Especially if there is more than 1 host.
They already have the advantage of not needing to go through qualifiers + the home field advantage at the tournament.
Assigning them to Pot 1 creates unbalanced groups + the knock-on effect on the unbalanced KO bracket.

@ALeibovici @sixineurope הבנת נכון לדעתי. יש שתי אפשרויות תכלס
א - הטיל חס ושלום נחת, כלל חומר הנפץ (שמקיף את החומר הגרעיני) מתפוצץ, דוחף את החומר הגרעיני לתוך עצמו, יש פיצוץ גרעיני
ב - טיל חץ מיירט אותו, רק חלק מחומר הנפץ, אם בכלל, מתפוצץ, החומר הגרעיני לא נדחף מספיק, אין פיצוץ
עברית

@Botzer_Ophir @sixineurope נכון. אבל ממה שהבנתי האטומים צריכים ״דחיפה״ מכל הכיוונים בו זמנית. כלומר, כל חומר הנפץ שעוטף את הליבה מכל הכיוונים צריך להתפוצץ במקביל כדי לייצר דחיסה מקסימלית שתיצור את אפקט השרשרת.
עוד פעם, אני רחוק מלהבין בתחום. כותב רק על בסיס מה שקראתי.
עברית

@Krzws1 @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata 1. too big
2. extra team = a team which doesn't get to play in the final day
English

@MartMartinec @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata it means one team won't play in the final day - something we would want to avoid
English

@Botzer_Ophir @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata 8 groups with 5 teams. 32 guaranteed spots, rest with some pre-qualification.
Easy .
Change my mind.
English

@Botzer_Ophir @eddiemikus @fmeetsdata UEFA needs to tread very carefully with what message they choose to send out from yesterday.
If they aren't careful, it could backfire in the future.
English

@Da_Real_Kevon @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata why? I'm not disagreeing i just won't to know what's the logic behind this
English

@Botzer_Ophir @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata I’d take one direct qualification spot from concacaf and give it to uefa and one direct spot from Asia and give it to Africa
17
10 +1 ICplayoffs
7 + 2 ICplayoffs
6. +1 ICplayoffs
5. +1 ICplayoffs
1. +1 ICplayoffs
English

@eddiemikus @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata if they realize they can skip qualifiers completly, or at least a big chunk of it, they would take unl seriously
English

@Botzer_Ophir @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata I feel like the reason they are taking it into account is that the big teams won’t take it seriously otherwise—which is weird since these team are already most likely to qualify traditionally (see the fact that we had go down to Sweden to get a team to qualify through NL).
English

@BenScherp @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata a possibility honestly
but i think that the nl should actually matter the most to the big teams - england, france, spain, etc. they bring the most money
English

@Botzer_Ophir @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata Preliminary round could be the Nations League. 8 groups of 4 based on NL classification.
Group winners go through, 2nd place plays at home against 3rd place from another group in qualification playoffs.
All games matter, both in NL and WCQ, and you get the most competitive field.
English

@cw_131007 @Ilovecandies92 @fmeetsdata why? if team a got an easier group it wouldn't be fair to judge based on points
English

@cw_131007 @Ilovecandies92 @fmeetsdata but it takes into account matches against much different teams.
English

@Botzer_Ophir @Ilovecandies92 @fmeetsdata There is - points earned in qualification like in 2022 would've been better for these play-offs.
English

@cw_131007 @Ilovecandies92 @fmeetsdata Honestly I agree with that
I already said I don't like "ranking of Nth placed teams", and I do think that the FIFA ranking is more fair
English

@Botzer_Ophir @Ilovecandies92 @fmeetsdata Yes, they changed it from points earned in the qualifying to FIFA rankings because Portugal and Italy were drawn together in 2022's play-offs.
English

@Botzer_Ophir @Ilovecandies92 @fmeetsdata They should've kept the 2022 seeding method for these play-offs instead of changing it to favour all of the big teams who didn't qualify bar Turkey because they were all away in these play-offs which is another issue because all of the finals should be held on neutral ground.
English

@eddiemikus @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata I would obviously prefer not taking into account the UNL at all, but given the constraint of taking it into account, this would probably be the best and simplest way to implement it
English

@eddiemikus @cw_131007 @fmeetsdata Generally speaking, giving the UNL winners/finalists/whatever a direct WC qualification.
It targets ONLY the best teams (which is what brings money) while not interfering with pots and others. And the UNL teams obviously won't be in the qualifiers
English

@Botzer_Ophir @fmeetsdata Can't have teams for same confederation in a group except for UEFA. Having 3 teams from CONCACAF as hosts has diminished the quality from that federation that qualified
English

@cw_131007 @AceRothstein197 @fmeetsdata If we take the best 32 teams, that's the draw we get.
Yes - we have clear favourites, but the pot 3 and 4 teams certainly can put up a fight

English

@cw_131007 @AceRothstein197 @fmeetsdata it's possible to achieve this by eliminating more weak teams before the GS
if we want my system, with 4 teams per group, we need 32 teams (4*8).
