This might be BS.
Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete
This might be BS.
I won't watch a minute of Super League. Won't even gamble on it. Philadelphia Union are finally good and entertaining, I'll get by just watching and supporting MLS.

All jokes aside, prob gonna watch Barca and my domestic league. Canada just got a Tier 1 soccer league not too long ago, and my city' got a new club.

1 World Cup match will be worth 4 Super League matches. The 2018 World Cup raised $5bn in revenue from just 64 matches; the 2018 Champions League had 125 matches and raised a paltry $2.73bn.
This will stay true even if there is 0 star power in the World Cup, because only football fans watch club football whereas humans in general watch the World Cup. My father is a great example. Ask him to name a footballer, he'll say Maradona. Ask him to name another footballer, he can't. Ask him to name teams that play football, he'll say Argentina, Brazil, Germany and Italy. Ask him to name a European club, he can't answer that question.
That's what you're up against. The billions of people like my father whose cash advertisers want, for whom football is something that doesn't exist except for a couple of weeks every four years. For whom European club football is about as relevant as Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem or Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus.
Take World Cup participation away from the rebels and pure economics dictates that it will collapse overnight. Where do you think Cronaldo makes his real money, all those stupid Castrol ads or his weekly wages from the thieves? He wouldn't be on any Castrol ads if he couldn't be at the World Cup. It'd be Salomon Kalou or whoever else gets to play at the World Cup who appears in its advertising
Without the opportunity to play at the World Cup, rebel footballers will have the same global reach as professional League of Legends or Fortnite players. Your target market will be reduced to nerds with little disposable income borne from having enough free time to spend 38 weeks a year watching sport on TV, instead of going to a job or better yet spending money on the products being advertised.
Man, you went way too far with the bold part.
I sound dramatic but this is making me feel sick.
Imagine signing up to join a tournament that is chaired by A SITTING PRESIDENT of Real fukking Madrid
We already question their favourable treatment in Europe and now you wanna tell me that they will OFFICIALLY be running this bytch? Competition integrity already in the mud and a ball hasn't been kicked
Watch Real Madrid win like 7 of the first 10 titles
Rename it the Real Madrid Invitational and watch most of the hatred disappear.
