Message: [QUOTE="Forza Azzurri, post: 5593056, member: 1452"] Yeah, I don't think the draw is as easy as people make it out to be. It could clearly have been much worse but it also could have been much better. Getting Australia out of Pot 2 was a home run but Paraguay was, arguably, the second best team in Pot 3 and getting a Euro playoff qualifier instead of one of the minnows was not a good outcome either. None of the three games will be easy. You will see a very different Paraguay when the game actually means something. Turkey, if they emerge from the playoff, made the quarters in the last Euros and has a lot of talent. On home soil, we should, and frankly need to, advance but it is definitely not a cakewalk.
