Cant say this is getting the juices flowing at all. Dont even know where it is being held or what if any channels are showing it. Are KO times going to be UK friendly? It will be interesting to see what knock on effect this tournament has on the top Euro sides league and CL form (and player injuries) next season given they are not getting any summer break this year to take the FIFA wedge.

Rangers are considering a move for Christian Eriksen, 33, on a free transfer ahead of his imminent departure from Manchester United, according to former Old Trafford assistant manager Mick Brown. (Football Insider) Well, I can't see it, but he would obviously be the calm head in our creative/attacking midfield department. Likewise, he won't have to run that much, so pace is not important.

The managers will be dreading this pointless exercise, risking their "superstars" for more glamour trash, while their summer break is being cut short. Alas, most of these teams don't have to deal with CL qualifiers in early July ... That said, it might be an interesting thing to see how MLS and South American sides play these days. Ulsan HD will obviously smash them all, and we sign their right-winger - whoever it is!

No. It is a pathetic and almost pitiful attempt by FIFA to squeeze more money out of the game. A 48 team World Cup is another bad decision, IMO.

Agreed, all correct scores in the first round will be flukes. No idea of the intensity, the squads etc.

Any teams you are looking forward to seeing?

A lot of these teams are unknown quantities. And I don't know how seriously the European sides will take this tournament. I am looking forward to seeing some of the South American sides.
