The tournament is criticized for burdening players and congesting the football calendar, particularly in the American summer heat. There is concern regarding the financial motivations behind it and the inequity among participating clubs. Some fans appreciate the global representation, highlighting Brazilian teams and calling for more inclusivity in future events. However, there are strong arguments against the additional matches and the potential negative impacts on players' health and performance. The historical and cultural implications of the tournament's structure are also questioned, emphasizing the need for a modern perspective.
The idea of the world's top clubs playing against each other is dull due to the mismatch in resources between Europe and the rest.
The old Club World Cup was too deferential to the Uefa-Conmebol binary of significance...commercial entertainment business in the 21st century.
