This is a great idea. This is actually turning the current club world cup into a much more competitive and serious format. Having the title and trophy of best club in the world should mean something. A group stage would mean that Real Madrid wouldn't have to be automatically awarded a semi final place. The idea of a competitive international club format is also a way of getting more money out of the club world cup potential that it really should be. More money for clubs around the world. It's not like the top 6 teams don't have an enlarged and rotated squad to compete in multiple competitions.

@@neilg6675 the world cup has been great The problem was the fear mongering before hand which made fans afraid to travel Only the first few games struggled for attendance and a few more in group stage . The rest have been full maybe bar 1 or 2 more in group stage. Plenty of goals, Theres been 163 goals. Expected to be around 168 when the tournament is concluded which is only 11 less than the highest ever. Football has been fine. A few under dogs and 2 of the 3 favourites have reached the final. The group stage were the most exciting ever with groups being left undecided until the last match day with shocks People who went have enjoyed it. It's been easy to get around and well organised. Fans have praised it as one of the best. Fan behaviour at an all time high as is health and safety Accommodation for some has been an issue. Overpriced but the experience has been positive Issue is the slave labour to build the stadiums. Should never have gone there but it's been organised well, but considering the money spent, it's to be expected.
@neilg6675 Жыл бұрын
@Mainly Everything the attendances have improved in the last few games, though in part due to fans being given tickets, Senegal fa gave their fans 15000 tickets for the England game. The referees have been a joke, var was pretty good in Russia and that convinced the world it was ready, no one would use var off the back of this wc. Fans chucked out of hotels, road signs for stadiums to no where, that's without mentioning all the human rights issues. I've watched more 0-0 draws than I've seen in my life, a few very high scoring games have given a false impression for goals scored.

But the point stays the same. Even clubs from outside Europe are playing a ridiculous amount of games. Most leagues have 20 teams so 38 games per season as usual. All of them have cup games and some have 2 cups so all the same, and every continent have a ucl equivalent which for the most part follow the same format, this isn't about being from Europe or Asia or Africa or whatever this is about overworking players beyond what's reasonable. The only argument that can be used against Europe is the introduction of the nations league which let's be honest is being treated as a friendly competition and nothing more.

To be fair, In the past, I saw Boca Juniors demolish Milan (2003), Vasco Da Gama demolish Manchester United (2000), São Paulo beat the crap of Barcelona and Milan (92 and 93), sometimes the South America side, suffered but managed to beat the European side, like Corinthians beating Chelsea in 2012, São Paulo beating Liverpool in 2005, Internacional beating Ronaldinho's Barcelona in 2006 , and European side winning by referee mistakes (Palmeiras x Manchester in 99), or suffering but winning in the end (Vasco x Real Madrid in 98). In 2022, Chelsea struggled to beat Palmeiras, only winning in the prorogation after 1 x 1 in the match. 20 years old kids maybe has the illusion that Europe football were always all bells and whistles, but it's only recently (maybe last 20 years) that the balance was ruined between Europe and South America, probably because the European side wasn't allowed to have as many foreigners in the teams as they can today, so off course, the money the European clubs generate make easier for them to get all the best players from around the world, leaving the other leagues with only the leftovers. A new 32 team Club World Cup is a good way to keep clubs from all around the world in touch. I believe that a Flamengo or Palmeiras can surprise the European side and do a surprisingly good competition. We'll see until then. PS: The European side doesn't have an excuse to dismiss the new Club World Cup as they do with the actual iteration of the tournament, since there'll be 12 European Clubs, it's not much different than the Quarters of Final of a Champions League. I doubt a Real Madrid doesn't want to beat Barcelona, Bayern, Manchester City, Liverpool, PSG in the Club World Cup and be proclaimed the best club in the world, for example. Plus, I bet the Argentinean/Brazilian teams will surprise a lot of people and beat some of the European teams.

The answer to managing how many games players play with football expanding, is to allow clubs to have larger squads. The Champions League only permits what, 23 full pros and if they're injured the club has to fall back on their academy players despite generally having a squad of 30 odd senior pros. Larger squads could also go part of the way to reducing player power and their super-agents getting them extortionate contracts. They shouldn't be paid 2 million per week and getting hundreds of millions as a sign on bonus. If they're passionate about the game and want to establish themselves high up in the legends list, it should be for pride and success, not obscene amounts of money. They'll still get far more money than the average person which I don't mind too much but it's gone way to far.

The same applies for the group stages with 16 out of 24 progressing, where the 8 losers are almost certainly going to be the weak countries that wouldn't normally qualify. When just 16 teams played in the Euros, every group felt like a group of death.

Football becoming the number one sport in the US in the near future is fanciful. NFL is easily the biggest sport and it's cultural impact is so far ahead it won't be matched for a long time. NFl preseason game rate higher than the NBA finals. It's bigger than every other sports in the US combined. Second is college football, then basketball. With the (lack of) attention span of most Americans and they way football is structured the best hope would be the 4th most popular sport in the next 10 years or so. Which isn't bad at all.

Look, I'm an American, and I think 50% of my fellow citizens are some of the dumbest creatures to ever roam the Earth just like you undoubtedly do too, but I don't think the American "attention span" is the reason soccer isn't big over here. Heck, for crying out loud, we wouldn't love baseball if that was the case. It's simply just a cultural thing. Football became one of our pastimes before soccer did.

@@matthewponton5632I have lived in the US for nearly 20 years. And fair enough. You make a lot of sense. Only thing I would add is even though baseball is relatively slow. It's still has a lot breaks and timeouts which is more inline what what Americans expect and are programmed for regarding sport.

@@Cedisdead well the Super League can go ahead it was approved at the highest court as in UEFA and FIFA cant hold the monopoly. However if teams join the super league they will no longer be able to part take with UEFA and FIFA as in the clubs. The Portuguese La Liga and Seria A seem to be the only ones for it as it would expand their revenues closer to the Premier League. So then they would be able to compete for players on transfer and wages against the PL clubs and PSG.

Think about the bigger picture Clubs from undeveloped continents can attract lucrative sponsorship deals via this tournament and can also sell their players for huge sums of money when they perform on such a big stage Uefa Champions League and Copa Libertadores are not the only club competitions which need attention if FIFA wants to develop football to the highest level on all continents The Club World Cup would be play with the same format as the original one thus 7 games maximum,and you think 7 games in a period of 1 month in every 4 years will hurt players? Common man They are paid huge sums of money weekly but they play 3 games at most in the week ,compare that to the average worker This is great initiative by FIFA

Question: How many games can a team play in one season? Meaning how many do they play? PL= 38 games. FA Cup= how many total games if you win it all? 7 games League Cup= how many total games if you win it all? 7 games CL= bracket play= 6 games min. to win it all 13 games including the bracket. So, I have it at 65 games if your team wins them all and goes all the way. The NHL plays an 82 games season....sorry but no way is soccer harder on you than hockey. Plus HNL plays playoffs. 16 games more too win it all. Teams that are on top don't want anymore games, but too bad.

Simon saying soccer dominates college sports in the US shows how little he knows. In many College football (American) towns, the games are played in front of 40 to 70 thousand ppl.. high school football games in Texas played in front of 20 thousand people.. those numbers are bigger than many Prem sides, and it's the lowest run of the sport. Soccer won't overtake Football in our lifetimes in North America, especially with USA dominating North America.
