Nobody seems to give a shit about the CWC. How will FIFA cope?

the what?

by rigging it for riggi

Clever camera angles.
Give the locals a "1 ticket = 1 hot dog + one FREE soda upon presentation of a valid ID and ICE approval" discounts.

if an american team wins everyone will care.

the match starts in about 11 hours. just wait for the thread to pop up.

They will pretend it was a major success and a revolution anyway. And I actually believe some of them will think it to actually be the case, that’s how far up their own asses they are
Infantino won‘t suffer any repercussions. Depending on how hard it fails, it will be quietly dropped without a word in one to three iterations
For the time being, they will sell it as a huge success and use tons of little camera and marketing tricks to make it look that way

>>149171840
I really fucking pray that a non European team wins this one!

>>149171840
Considering the flow of Saudi money > DAZN > FIFA

I'm sure the people at FIFA are more than happy, it's a vehicle for corruption, not sporting merit

In Qatar we had the emergency Indian fans to fill the stands, I'm not sure that will workout in the US.

There is a a reason they wanted to kill Intercontinental and it's prestige by saying it was not a real tourney and it wasn't recognized by them. Truth is the only interesting part about this tourney is the money that clubs will receive in prizes

>>149172242
>more prize money than the UCL
>for a summer friendly competition
Where does all the money come from?

>>149172253
It's a roudabout bribe from the Saudi's to get the 2034 World Cup.

They "invested" 1bn into Dazn, who instantly paid that to FIFA for the broadcasting rights.

>>149172217
This. Boca Juniors sold out for their game s but at least 50% spics are """fans""" of boca so is not like they are all from Argentina.

>>149172242
>>149172253
It has been already reported that the ticket sales were low and that they're already lowering the prices of tickets.
It was a nightmare to sell the TV rights to broadcasters since FIFA was asking for a lot of money and no one wanted to spend that much, so I have no doubt that FIFA ended up lowering the price by a lot.

I'm 100% certain that this first iteration of this competition will be far different from the 2nd, because I bet FIFA will lose money with this.

>>149172295
Hi, fren. I’m a Boca fan, fren

>>149172302
>he thinks FIFA are fronting the cash
kek

>>149171840
funnily enough you're so far up your ass that you will believe it's been a failure even if everyone else but Europeans enjoy it. and all the European clubs are interested too because of the money

>>149172744
Most of the thirdies of the world only care because European teams participate, and that participation is totallu dependent on the money being there. If the Saudi's keep on pumping money into this, even if they already got what they wanted (World Cup hosting duties), is very much up in the air

>>149171431 (OP)
>flag
gee i wonder why you don't care

>>149172792
but the entire world except europe loves this competition so they money would be there

>>149171431 (OP)
FIFA, in all their infinite greed, will come up with more hype trickery. The winner of this Club World Cup will face the winner of next year's World Cup for the ULTIMATE UNIVERSAL CUP OF ALL TIME (tm). Players that are in both teams will get to pick a side.

>>149172880
Except that it isn't, the only reason broadcasting rights got sold in the first place is because th Saudi's just happened to invest 1bn into Dazn right before Dazn paid 1bn to Fifa kek

>>149172904
they took 10pc ownership too, it wasn't free

>>149172744
Yeah, ticket sales sure are showing the hype, buddy. Huge event, revolution of football. Can’t wait!
>>149172147
Good luck with that

>>149172933
Corruption never is

>>149172972

everybody was shitting on Qatar 2022 too, let's see how this actually goes

>>149173001
You haven't brough any argument to the table apart from an unsubstantiated "but the entire world except europe loves this competition so they money would be there"

>>149173020
*yawn*

what's that now?

>>149173043
>what's that now?
The world's reaction to this tournament

>>149173049
europe isn't the world, try harder

>>149173064
Then surely broadcasters around the world are frothing at the mouth to try and secure the rights for their extremely excited viewers

>>149173088
dazn sublicensed the rights to 60 broadcasters worldwide. this is already a massive success and you are already on the wrong side on history. bud

>>149173064
Imagine how hyped you‘d be if a Pakistani club were to make it to the prestigious CWC, Sajid!
European clubs will not give a shit beyond wanting the price money. No matter how money they slap onto it, it will always lack prestige and be a nuisance as a season break tournament. Bayern is taking various talents and loan players with them. The number of people who want to see a big European club’s B team play against some non-yuro club is low. Making the tournament comparatively available was a smart (and very much necessary) move, though. A shame good access is wasted on this trash while all the real competitions require multiple pay-TV offers
I am all for intercontinental competition, and I wouldn’t mind what is now the Intercontinental Cup being a bigger thing. But the CWC idea with the four year cycle is retarded af from start to finish, and plenty of people won’t care more about it than the ICC

>>149173160
youre not white are you

>>149173250
Of course he isn’t
That also explains why he’s so dumb

>>149173219
>European clubs will not give a shit beyond wanting the price money
which means that a they'll be there like they are this summer and b they'll try to go as far as possible to get that prize money

>it will always lack prestige
you wish

>big European club’s B team
bro, are you retarded? you honestly believe big teams aren't going to try to go as far as possible to get that prize? did the yuro teams play b teams in previous version of the cwc too?

>Intercontinental Cup
that was shit, not a real tournament

>>149171781
That’s an if you can see from the space station

"no"

>>149173354
yeah exactly they all love it. they love it so much they want to take it behind a middle school and get it pregnant

>>149173315
Setting impressive cope records here, wow

let's be real. the only problem with this tournament is that the greedy European clubs hoard all the top players. South American-European games would be fire if not for that. money, especially Euro money has ruined the game

>>149173518
not coping at all, the reason greedy Euros hate this tournament so much is that they know it will give South Americans some of the pie. Euros would just prefer they remain colonies and sell all their best players to them. it is capitalism at its most evil

why can't yuros care about this cup? how can i cope? i want to kms

>>149173587
if Inter Miami draws a huge crowd tonight, you can at least post about how big the tournament is to make them seethe

The opening game is played by turboshitters like in the World Cup with Qatar and Ecuador

Does anyone have the Sirs OP for qatar’s match threads?

>>149171431 (OP)
But you will watch with us, right bro?

I'll watch it cause the matches are played while I'm bored at work, but only the games for euro clubs. I don't give a fuck about sandnigger fc vs burgerchompers

Not FIFA’s fault UEFAlona was getting rekt by fucking Eintracht at the Europa League

massive money laundering operation by FIFA/Saudis/DAZN.

The TRUE and HONEST Christine Christian Christopher Ricardo Chandler cup's trophy would have been a BENT DUCK, the dumb ball-inside-yellow-rings-thing they're giving away now is PLAGYARIZING Sonichu. I'm calling my lawyers NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!

>>149174723
You make it sound like Eintracht Frankfurt is some sort of joke club that didn't win the EL that year and now plays CL

people said the same in 1930 about the World Cup (in fact England said it until the 1960s, which is why historical cumulative stats from 1930 to 2025 aren't relevant when judging England on a historical level, but that's another topic for another thread)

C what?

>>149176119
think it means chris chan

>>149173582
go back to south america

>>149176078
England took part in 1950 already, meaning you missed the first three editions. That's not enough to excuse the poor results overall. 1930 and 1950 happen to be the most clown-esque tournaments since they had fewer than the envisioned 16 participants, meaning some teams only had two group games. In 1930, all of the British Isles as well as Spain, Germany, Italy and the historically strong nations of Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Austria didn't attend. In 1950, all of Europe was in ruins after WW2, multiple teams refused to show up again, Germany was banned, and the Italian team had a literal plane crash kill most of their squad
But to get to your comparison: we live in a very different time compared to 1930. The situation isn't comparable, and the World Cup quickly proved a success despite the world being much harder to travel back then. It filled a gap, as it was the first global football event after the very differently organized Olympics. The CWC is something entirely different, it has none of the perks of the World Cup

The Saudis gave a £1 billion donation to the competition

I wasn't even going to watch it until some local channel from my cunt announced it was going to be broadcasted

>>149172972
>muh corruption
It's not government money, so yes, the one with the most money wins, what's so bad about it.

He is also paying a lot of american zoomer influencers to promote it btw
