They honestly should just combine AFC and Oceania into one qualification zone.

Some of the teams through to the Euro 2024 play-offs are incredibly weak - like Estonia who didn't win a single match in qualifying - due to their performance in the Nations League (although the logic Uefa are employing completely escapes me).

We have an absurd situation in qualifying group J where five of the six teams could end up qualifying for the finals, despite it being one of the weakest. Just seems like Uefa cynically want to give undue weight to the Nations League to increase the value of the games they can make money from.

I think next time, only the Group Winners of the Nations League Groups should get play-off spots. The spots shouldn't transfer down to the runners ups

So 12 Group Winners of the Nations League (not including D Groups) get Playoff Spots, then if those teams qualify automatically through qualifying, those spots go first to the D Group Winners, and then to the best third placed teams in the Qualifying Groups.

The current system didnt work. Wales finished last in their Nations League group; with 5 losses and 1 draw. From that they earned a Play-Off Place. But at least they did finish third in their qualifying group...

Estonia finished last in their qualifying group but get a Playoff place
