it would be a better idea when the top40 of the Fifa ranking would play there! then you really have al the best countries at the tournament, becease countries like china is there just to play 3 games, hoping they can score 1 goal en then they will go home....
think about ur statement, we should allow the top40 ranked in fifa list to go to worldcup. How do you think that list gets generated? On the performance of the teams in the big tournaments, therefore we would have the same 40 teams every year because the others would never play in a big tournamenet. Good idea sid. The way it is done at the moment is the best. China etc may go home after 3 games, as many said senegal might, but now senegal might go through, republic ireland might, and for these countries and them players it means a MASSIVE amount, as it does to me when england win.

U cant just say "only allow what we consider the best to play" because how do you think "the best" became the best? At one point they were crap as well.

wake up and smell the earl gray tea.
