How the fk does Estonia get a playoff finishing bottom of the group? Its nonsense.
 
We should be capable of coming through that particular route to the finals but it will need Page to get a better tune out of the squad than he has done so.

I fear - from reading Twitter - after the draw that many are thinking "Its only Finland" but I do also think they are more than a match for us and they will face us with no fear!

We shouldn't forget that in eighteen games since qualifying for the World Cup we have won just four and lost eight. Those four wins have been Latvia (twice), Gibraltar and Croatia. I'm not feeling where our optimism of qualifying will come from personally.

I would also add that the eight defeats includes a home and away defeat to Poland in the Nations League.

It;'s the UEFA way these days. Five Premier League teams likely to qualify for the Champions league next time around.

The 5th placed team could be upwards of 20 points away from being a Champion! It's not unfeasible they could be nearer the relegation zone than the top of the league
