Seedings are based on UEFA coefficients not those whacky FIFA rankings

And England are comfortably 3rd in those (just behind Germany and Spain and well ahead of Belgium in 4th) so Holland's absence has no impact on them whatsoever.
Wales will be in Pot 4 with the other lowest seeds (like N Ireland and Iceland)
