    Fifa risks war with Europe's clubs over international friendlies


    • Fifa could increase number of international dates from 12 to 17
    • Europe's leading clubs angry with 'ridiculous' expansion


    Fifa faces fresh conflict with Europe's leading clubs over plans to introduce five more international friendly dates into the already crowded football calendar.


    The world governing body is understood to have held internal discussions on the insertion of five extra friendly matches into seasons when World Cups and European Championships do not take place. It would raise the total number of international dates from 12 to 17.

    Rest of story:

    What the fuck? Absolutely fucking ridiculous.

    If I wanted to watch everyone from the same nation pass the ball round the back four before playing through balls all the time to score I'd watch the local Pub Team.

    Fine, just do it against weaker nations, theres a chance Bendtner might score again... sometime.. in the future..

    Nah i hope this doesnt come to anything, even if there isent Euro or World cup there is always something in the rest of the world. Not sure the players would be that fond of it either, sure its nice to play for your national team but all friendlies end up doing is mess with your seeding for the next qualification

    Henry is a legend and I watch the New York Red Bulls just for him.

    And doesn't Robin get injured enough on international duty.

    Dont see a problem with it. If you don't like it play players who need gametime.

    It's not as simple as that. Players are pretty much forced to play even when they are not fit by countries. The current club schedule is already draining enough for players without them having to play 5 useless friendlies extra that just destroy them.

    Well if there was a way to successfully to protest this you have to get the national team managers involved and maybe for these extra friendlies and play there C or D team. Give the players that matter time off and give some new guys a chance. Then things would work out and it might not be that bad afterall.
