Today FIFA unveiled the pools which will be used when they draw the groups on the 4th December in Cape Town. There are still six spots to be decided with the European and Central/South American playoffs still needing to complete the second leg, and in Africa we await the extraordinary sudden death playoff between Eygpt and Algeria after their finished completely tied in their group: surely a first for World Cup Qualifying history.
The exact make-up of the pools can change depending on who wins in the playoffs; If Ireland get past France and Portugal beat Bosnia then they will swap pools. Likewise if Uruguay get knocked out by Costa Rica, the scenario would be that the USA or Mexico would swap places with the Costa Ricans.
Dream Group:
Spain
Switzerland
Paraguay
New Zealand
Group of Death

Holland
Ivory Coast
Mexico
