Right, so as I'm a dork and I'm bored, I'll make a random draw.

First, there's the seedings. I'll go by the FIFA Rankings for this. So, the teams would be divided by the different seedings like this:

First seeds:
*Germany (hosts)
*Brazil
*Netherlands
*Czech Rep
*Argentina
*France
*Mexico
*USA

Second seeds:
*Spain
*England
*Portugal
*Italy
*Sweden
*Japan
*Croatia
*Costa Rica

Third seeds:
*Iran
*Poland
*Tunisia
*South Korea
*Saudi Arabia
*Paraguay
*Ecuador
*Switzerland

Fourth seeds:
*Ukraine
*Serbia & Montenegro
*Cote d'Ivoire
*Togo
*Ghana
*Trinidad & Tobago
*Australia
*Angola

Now distributing these randomly (using online random number generator) into the 8 groups. Restrictions: no more than 2 european nations in a group, no more than 1 nation from any other continent in a group.

Group A
Brazil
Italy
Tunisia
Australia

Group B
Netherlands
Spain
Paraguay
Ghana

Group C
France
England
Saudi Arabia
Trinidad & Tobago

Group D
Argentina
Croatia
Poland
Cote d'Ivoire

Group E
USA
Portugal
Ecuador
Ukraine

Group F
Czech Rep
Sweden
South Korea
Angola

Group G
Germany
Costa Rica
Iran
Serbia & Montenegro

Group H
Mexico
Japan
Switzerland
Togo

Interesting result, with some groups being clearly easier than others (E,H and G are much easier than A and B). We'd meet USA again, dunno if that'd be a very good thing..

If Portugal plays the US again they will win. US got lucky last WC they will be horrrible this time around have no faith in them...dont start Eddie...also the suprises this year I think will be Serbs, Ghana, Ivory Coast, and the Aussies.

Big Disapointments I can see: France, Germany, Argentina, and the Czechs

Um, since England won their group and beat the Argentines, I'm pretty sure they'll be back up into the top 8 in the (incredibly unbalanced) FIFA rankings. They'll be a top seed for sure.

the "groups of death" are always fun, but I'd rather not see England in any of them.
