Wales should have been in Pot 3 as I recall but were put in Pot 4 due to the delay in completing the play-off games just in case Scotland qualified. So this has skewed Group B a bit.

Mad that officially at least Wales are in the toughest group. Not entirely sure I agree there.
Qatar are the second worst ranked team in the tournament yet were pot 1. You’d be laughing if you were Dutch.
We are in a group with an average FIFA ranking of 14.75, the best by quite a margin. Most of the other groups have an average ranking in the 20's but I'm quite happy where we are. Definitely wouldn't want to be in Group E with Spain and Germany !
I'd rather our group where I think we have a chance of getting something from every game, than a group with an out and out favourite and a 2nd seed we know little about.
