Doesn't even need to be FIFA, if the English FA told the premier league clubs they did not need to release players for the competition and refused to move the season around pretty much 75% of the top players in the world would be omitted from the WC.

UEFA clubs are going to get paid a fortune to release their players for a winter world cup and they'll all happily do it because no-one in football has any principles or balls.

Its being negotiated

quote:

It is believed on-going negotiations over 'player release' payments for the 2018 World Cup in Russia and then the Qatar tournament four years later may provide a mechanism to settle the issue.

Fifa provided clubs with around £45m ($70m) after last summer's World Cup in Brazil. Three-quarters of the players at the tournament were registered with European teams.

Individual payments are calculated through the number of players selected from a particular club to represent their national side together with the number of days each player was at the tournament.

In light of the decision to switch the date for Qatar 2022, the payment levels for the next two World Cups could now rise substantially.

Hahaha the contracts fox signed for the world cup are absolutely worthless now. :lol: if you think any americans will watch this at the height of real football season. especially since fox has a massive nfl contract and isn't about to preempt that for soccer.

maybe fox will tell fifa to piss off and bankrupt them by not paying.

It's so that when Qatar's team of expat Brazilians wins the final with a 93rd minute penalty and the whole crowd stands up and cheers, the defining moment of United Passions 2: Between a Rock and a Qatar'd Place has already been written.

The crowd will be full of Nepalese slave laborers and absolutely no fans, who will be in prison for buying tickets. Football's crowning moment.
