Factoring diversity, strength, everything basically...Imo.
Minimum numbers
UEFA 12
CONEMBOL 4
CAF 3
AFC 3
CONCACAF 2
OFC 0.5
5.5 spots left decided by world cup performance.
I think that the seats should be decided at the end of the world cup everytime. There should be some sort of point relation that dictates the number of seats. For Instance, Asia having its four countries finish last on their group should only get the minimum three. Etc. Europe getting outperformed by opposing confeds percentage wise in terms of second round finish etc.

real talk.
the distribution is about right, but europe can't even send 13 decent teams, do you really want san marino in the WC?
It should really be a 24 teams tournament, with:
uefa: 10
conmebol: 6
concacaf: 2
caf: 2
afc: 2
ofc: 2
Ofc 2?
they dont even have a single decen team in ofc![]()
ofc 2 .. wtf son?
if you want a 24 teams tournament then I'd roll with:
uefa 12
conmebol 6
caf 2
afc + ofc 2
concacaf 2
if you want to go with the politically correct distribution you'd go with
uefa 10
conmebol 5
caf 4
afc + ofc 3
conacaf 2
uefa 10 (Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, England, Portugal, Turkey, Austria, Netherlands/Croatia)
conmebol 5 (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Colombia)
concacaf 3 (Mexico, USMNT, Costa Rica)
caf 3 (Algeria, Ivory Coast, ???)
afc + ofc 3 (Korea Republic, Japan, ???)
OP said diversity, tbh, I always thought it's kinda ty that ofc only qualifies through the backdoor if at all...
If we're going to be frank, all of ofc/afc are , tbh...
All 32 spots to Argentina so Messi has a chance.
He'll still find a way to the bed
The second best country in the ofc have players that work full time jobs with a population of 20k people![]()
Same with trinidad & tobago and that kind of teams... basically a bunch of plumbers and carpenters that get together to play some games...
You got that nerve to say this when argentina could barely win against Iran.![]()
Argies wanting 6 spots so their chances of qualifying increases
farmers from Bolivia, Equador, Paraguay, Peru and Venezuela don't deserve to go to the World Cup. 5 spots is perfect, not 6.
i know afc wants australia out of its groups in any tournaments...bunch of small midgets running around like monkeys learning to kick a ball trying to qualify to make up the numbers...
australia if they were serious in all the tournaments they participate in the region should be winning every trophy, instead they make the finals and just play down to the compe ion losing the game...
Mexican dude now decides who's worthy of playing a World Cup![]()
Ecuador is going to the WC now with 5 spots and wouldn't get in with 6?
Paraguay might get in too.
The fact is, right now, 8 of the 10 CONMEBOL teams are "second round of the WC" tier. Only Bolivia and Venezuela are below that. And yet they can still beat any team on any given night. Specially Bolivia with the biggest home court advantage in the World.
Wow..8 of 10..bro, thats delusional. Uru couldnt even beat australia in the playoffs.
What? When?fwiw Australia might be a second round of WC tier too. Last WC the only SA team to not make the second round was Ecuador, and they almost did it. They are even better now. And Paraguay and Peru are on that level too.
This is why I propsed confeds playing for WC spots in the world cup. They all should have minimum number seats. World cup results dictates the total number of seats per confed...
Is Paraguay any good? My boys beat them yesterday with their B team
Same all-time performance in a WC than Mexico
it was a W, but reinforces what I'm saying... all those teams don't go out there to compete and put on a show, they go hang 10 players from the crossbar and leave one guy up... it's terrible football, tbh...
I'll be fine with 5 spots, tbh... if it's a 24 team tournament... if it's 32, give me the Vinotinto or Paraguay over Bosnia or Mozambique...
son the same bosnia that gave argentina a run for their money on their FIRST world cup game in nation history?
bosnia would be favorites against all SA teams except argentina/brazil/chile. as would many other euro B-teams like switzerland/denmark/croatia/turkey/russia/belgium or poland.
SA teams need to learn how to play organized ball if they hope to win anything. SA got its last ring with a mother ing stacked 2002 brazil team, since then SA teams haven't done lately. If you count semifinalists since 2002 you get 9-3 for europe, one those 3 being bra7il (crooked bracket tbh), with a single podium finish because of maradona 0.2
y'all s need to show something for all this talk tbh or else you'll start looking like my lakers![]()
