Format is rubbish!
Has created a vastly unfair draw

only because some of the better teams underperformed in the group stages.
Wales and Iceland may not have even made it if it was only 16 teams

The games have been good to watch definately. It's hard getting 16 teams out of 24 so perhaps they have to bring in seedings or similar

Or maybe just have 16 teams. I mean, UEFA only has 55 members.
Compare that to 211 members of FIFA vying for 32 WC spots.

Can see both points. I didn't mind the 16 team concept but as many would say the Euro's are nearly if not as tough as the WC due to UEFA being by far the strongest conference. If you ignore the stupid FIFA ranking system reckon you would find 35-40 out of the best 50 countries in the world would be from the UEFA confederation. So by that I can see why they went to 24 and the idea was that all games at group stage would be meaningful by having 3rd placed finishes qualify.
Just needs to be a better draw. Removing the rule that the home side must be in pot A would be good also
