Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

They could run qualifiers so only the top 16 teams play the tournament. So you’d likely get the 10 CONMBOL nations plus 6 of the better CONCACAF nations (MX, US, Costa Rica, Canada, Haiti and someone else)

I'd be a lot more interested in them letting Mexican clubs raise hell in the Libertadores again TBH.

Last time they let Haiti play Copa América they lost 7–1 against Brazil and 4–0 against Ecuador.

Haiti is one of the good small islands. Some of these islands would be get killed

Iirc they were kinda talking about it a few years ago (might even be as far back as a decade ago tbf). Especially when they use to send the invites out. But once the US sent their B/C team because they saving the A's for the Gold Cup (I think it might of been the year of the Gio Dos Santos worldie vs US in the final) the CONMBOL weren't best pleased and felt disrespected. And I've never really heard anything about combining it ever since.

Twas in 2008, I remember because US folks were defending prioritizing the gold cup because they thought it would be an advantage to be in South Africa a year before everyone.

I feel you but Libertadores has enough quality teams to not warrant an expansion.

If they did make an American cup, they need to make different tiers or something.

Nah, just let US and Mexico play.

Nah, just let US and Mexico play.

That’s pretty much a Copa America then, just with MX and US as constant fixtures. IIRC, CONMEBOL invites 2 other nations a year so they have at least 12 for the tournament.

Pretty much. I mean CONCACAF is basically Mexico and US. They should just let them participate in Americas competition through CONMEBOL. Mexico vs Brazil is always fukkery

word, why don’t they let the US and Mexico play in the Copa America with the Brazil’s and Colombia etc ?

 

[CBSkyline]

If Tahiti can compete in the Confederations Cup, than Guyana should be given a chance to play Venezuela and Brazil in Copa America, if only for the fukkery

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Is this Turkey/Italy game worth watching?

Also @THEREALBRAND when did you get taken out of the bushes? And why were banned anyway? Welcome back. Congrats on La Liga too.

Appreciate it. I got caught up in the diaspora wars with those xenophobic ADOS bigots on here. They were posting Far Right type stuff about immigrants, so I responded by trashing Americans. I definitely went too far and should have been banned, but it was worth it

HONDURAS beat Brazil in the 2001 copa America

they were a last minute invite as Argentina pullled out and they literally arrived the day of the game on Colombian Air Force planes
