Nations League (48)
So this actually gives them a second chance to play the euros
Let's say Belgium ends third on their euro qualification group, if one of the finalists (like England) qualified directly they will play the Nations League finals instead , thus giving them another chance to play the Euro 2020
Basically for league A this are something like official friendlies, for league B an easier chance to qualify if they failed to normal route and for C and D it's almost their only actual chance.
The Netherlands will win.
I wonder what happens with the play-offs for league A when most of them have already qualified. After all they have the highest chance and there's only 12 of them. Play-offs will basically be whoever hasn't qualified yet but there's a big chance it's gonna be less than 4 teams, or worse for the organisation 0. Who's gonna take that final spot then?
Basically if 3 teams of league A failed to qualify then the best team of league B that failed will be screwed because they will have to play against those 3.
Let's say that for some reason only Iceland and Croatia (League A) don't qualify to the euros that doesn't mean the spot will be decided between them but that the best teams of league B that didn't made it will play with them (currently Bosnia and Ukraine) and that the next ones of their league (Russia and Austria) will take theis spots on the finals of league B
Thought that might be the case, but that it couldn't be because that wouldn't be fair. I think it's better if #5 and 6 of League B fill those spots, that way it would only increase or not influence the chances of any individual team if less than 4 teams from League A don't qualify. Don't make it decrease the chances of qualifying for the best performing teams of League B, otherwise spot 6 in League B gives you better prospects than #1 and 2.
so basically this Nations League is meaningless,but it still has meaning cause it gives preference to some teams entering into the Euros ?
If that’s what you want to take from all those posts, then please yourself.
Make up your mind, Holt. Which is it?
Doesn't every man and his dog qualify for the Euros these days?
It's getting harder and harder to not qualify.
World Cup will be the same soon enough Alex, with the expanded tournament.
Our generation of great Belgian devils will always be remembered as a very talented group which never won a prize. I think their best moments are gone. The nations league was a nice chance to win a prize, but they failed. Happy for Ronaldo to take a prize with Portugal. You see he really likes to play for his country, more than Messi with Argentina.
I will always think Ronaldo is the GOAT , Messi is amazing but Ronaldo pushes the whole team to do better
Thks 
Taavi Ronaldo is the best cause he pushes himself a lot and work a lot but fortunatelly Portugal is not only Ronaldo...
We have a lot of great players, of course not Ronaldos, i know, great coaches but unfortunatelly we are a small and poor country and this play agaist us everytime.
See you in the next Euro
