FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread

[Smack That Ace]

If follow developments, this is very unfortunate condition, the conflict that occurs causes everything to be unable to be managed easily and football, which is the sport most loved by everyone, is also affected by the impact of the conflict that occurs.
Whatever it is, I think most people, especially the countries taking part in the World Cup, will definitely agree with it and indeed FIFA must immediately resolve it to be able to create more comfortable situation as time progresses towards the World Cup competition starting in 2026.
We see what will come out of FIFA decision in the future, what is clear is that if it has good intentions for the 2026 World Cup competition, I sure there won't be many people who will be able to dispute it or debate the results of FIFA decision.
Indeed, this is very difficult condition, there will be one party who will suffer loss and indeed there will be majority who will gain so, FIFA must be able to be fair in resolving it, but on the other hand, I think FIFA will get pressure.

I think it is more about getting consistent rules, that's the hard part. If you ban Russia from the games because they attacked another nation, then not banning Israel would be very tough, because they did attack another nation too, what would be their defense to keep Russia out but keep Israel in?

I am sure that many people will argue, after all there were some differences, but in the end it's still a tough and sensitive one, and not at all agreed by everyone. While some might be pro-Israel, some are pro-Palestine, whereas in Europe most are pro-Ukraine and can't find that many pro-Russian nations to be fair. This is why I think getting a consistent rule would make things easier, and would allow them to draw a line which would make things clearer.

It really should not be a tough decision. Russia had political problems with Ukraine. Russia also actually reached out to the United States and said that they had certain problems going on and certain disagreements with Ukraine being a member of NATO. If I’m not wrong, Ukraine also expanded five times while Russia was saying no. After that they attacked. But on the other hand, Israel has been committing war crimes since the last almost 75 years. Just because some people wanted to retaliate and show Israel that their actions would have consequences doesn’t allow Israel to go and commit genocide. And if FIFA is saying that Russia cannot play in the World Cup, how can they say that Israel can play? Somehow killing innocent babies and defenseless civilians is ok for FIFA?

The problem with Saudi Arabia is all they have is money and they cannot use the potential they have. In fact, one reason for the Saudi Arabia teams to buy superstar players and spend too much money for these players is that they want to be a more powerful country and be a better host for the World Cup in the next years. This can help this country to earn to more money and on the other hand this can help Saudi Arabia to have more and better players in the country and attract more attention.

I agree with you. But I think another reason Saudi Arabia spends a lot of money to recruit veteran superstars is because they want to promote the Saudi Arabian League aka SPL throughout the world and at the same time promote football to all Saudi citizens so that they like football. I think their investment is working. Nowadays, at least people know Al Nasr and Al Hilal and almost everyone knows SPL because there are several superstars like Ronaldo and Neymar. It seems like they really have the ambition to become one of the best football countries in Asia and even the world.

Saudi Arabia make huge investment by signing many top european players to make their competition become more popular and as the way for promoting capital become host of World Cup 2034.
Since signed top players last three years ago, Saudi Pro League competition have been popular right now and many players leaving their career with top European team after receiving most excited payment salary and some players reached the most expensive players since joining with Saudi Pro League team.

But top European players joined Saudi Pro League competition can't help more with Saudi Arabia national team performance in World Cup better, in World Cup 2022 failed in phase group although their performance make us surprised after success defeating Argentina on the first match.

[Lidger]

Qatar, which has strong finances, should be able to form a good national team squad with the investment they have made. Currently they have done the right thing by promoting football in their country. Qatar is not a football country but they can try to introduce football to the young people there. They can invest to build a world-class football academy. They can also do what Saudi Arabia did by bringing in world-class veteran players. Or they can also build connections with several football clubs in Europe by sending their potential players. Qatar should be able to do anything with the money they have.

Qatar qualification so far has been full of controversy and even during the match against India we could see a controversy about the goal created, so that many parties claimed that Qatar qualification was not purely because of their ability but rather the help of the referee who has often sided with them so far in the Asian qualifiers, but even so, of course, we have to admit that Qatar, which does not have a football culture, is now starting to turn into a country that focuses on football as their main sport, Qatar has formed a league that is indeed fulfilled and requires the presence of European players in the club, so that it will make local talents able to improve their performance and also of course it will be beneficial for the Qatar national team.

We cannot deny that the ability and financial strength that Qatar currently has makes it very easy for them to provide modern facilities and infrastructure to support their football development, so I think in the next few years we may see Qatar and Saudi Arabia become football powers that will indeed be able to compete with countries such as Brazil and Argentina. 

Every country has money and political influence. If it was the case that referees could have qualified in the main stage of the World Cup, then there are many rich Asian countries who would have qualified in the main stage of the World Cup through money. There is no chance to feel so bad about the players that Qatar has because even though they were defeated in the World Cup matches, they performed well and were defeated there. If you put people who don't know the game on the field and if you put them on the field and dream of them playing in the main stage of the World Cup, then it would be wrong for us to dream that. Qatar may not be as strong as all the other teams but Qatar is trying to make their football stronger and they will succeed in doing so.

Becoming one of the best countries in the world on football is a big dream that might not come through because their local players cannot secure the world cup for them, and also European competition is more advanced and superior to theirs. It is no doubt that they are improving in football but not to be among the best.

The reason why SPL is signing veteran players from European competition is that they want their country to also be known through football because football is what everyone world wide love than any other sports. This was why they had to bribe Fifa for them to host the world cup in other to expose Saudi Arabia to the world.

Saudi Arabia makes football an investment aimed at attracting interest and uniting fans in the region, another interest is of course to make the quality of their football better. To become the best in the world, I think all countries will compete to make it happen, including Saudi. With the financial strength they have, I think Saudi can achieve their own targets in football, everything takes a process and time. Through the Saudi Pro League, the talents of local Saudi players will be honed, and it is possible that their talents will attract the interest of European clubs.

As we know, Newcastle has now been acquired by PIF, which also oversees Al Hilal, Al Nassr, Al Ahli and Al Ittihad. In the future, with its financial strength, PIF could acquire more European clubs, or at least they will have one club in the top five European leagues. This way Saudi can place their local players in each of these clubs, apart from encouraging them to develop in the Saudi Pro League. Saudi appointment as host of the 2034 edition of the World Cup signals their seriousness in football, this is regardless of how they lobby FIFA.

Football in this world has changed a lot we remember years ago we saw player playing for their teams because they loved to but they now play for money. That's the main reason why the Saudis, Qatari teams, and governments spend more money. Because now they can develop their country by using football, Just like what they do in Saudi Arabia.
I'm sure in the next years we will see a better form of Saudi Arabia because of the money they invested now in football for the World Cup.

Player development takes time. It's not a plug and play system where you just excel at it with minimal efforts. Compared to other countries, Saudi Arabia only recently came to the light and that is why they have been working over time to bring the best footballing talents to play in their leagues so some of their home-based players will learn first hand from  top talents. It's going to take a while for sure but in the next decade, I expect them to compete actively in major tourneys. It's a process and will take time to nurture.

Late last year, FIFA announced the Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 FIFA World Cup which means that the Middle East country have a little over 10 years to prepare for football's biggest competition. Currently, Saudi Arabia is not considered as a strong football nation but we all saw how they had a good performance in the last edition of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Saudi Arabia was the only team in that tournament to beat eventual winners Argentina so I think they have a good chance of building a strong team that'll be competitive enough to face the rest of the world when they host the tournament in 10 years time. Currently, Saudi Arabian football chiefs are doing exceptionally well to improve the quality of football in the country as they've influenced the signing of some of the best players to the Saudi Pro League in other to improve the quality of football in the country.
With the recent improvement in the quality of football in Saudi league, I strongly believe that they'll be able to build a Saudi national team will deliver great performances when they host the FIFA World Cup.

In my opinion, all of this requires a long process to make Saudi Arabia one of the top teams in the world. They have successfully promoted their domestic leagues and they have invested heavily in football. But in fact, as far as I know, Saudi Arabia is not a country that has a football culture so it will be very difficult to see results in the 2026 world cup. I think if they are consistent in recruiting top European players and developing their young players then they will be able to surprise the world in the 2030 world cup or 2034.

~snip~

To be fair world stuff, basically political stuff, is a very hard one to judge without being in it, and harder to judge when you are in it. Who are the Fifa rule makers or decision makers to ban a team, or unban a team? Like if you ban a team, are you taking their own situation into consideration, how are you so quick to judge, let's take for example Russia, when you ban Russia, why are the players taking the blame for what Putin did.

But also, if you look other side, if you unban Russia, then which Ukrainian did you ask for it first? They are still dying for that matter, so how can you unban them.

This isn't really Fifas job to judge wars all around the world, they are not responsible for making decisions at all, that wouldn't be fine. Nations could get together as a whole, all of them have federations, and make it democratic and vote accordingly.

If look at the conflict that occurred and several incidents there, it would be very unethical to forget everything and cancel the ban, but whether things like this will continue to have an influence in football.
I will not side with any of them but what is clear is that everyone has the right to be able to participate because the conflicts that occur and political problems do not originate from other things, wouldn't it be shame if football was impacted by political problems.

Yes, of course this is not FIFA job but is part of the UN job, it just that we are discussing them here with football and the World Cup competition and in football it is clear that all decisions are FIFA job to determine.
FIFA is the largest football federation and has full control over every major World Cup competition, they must take the best steps to maintain the comfort and success of holding this competition.
What is clear is that I fully hope that FIFA can take the truly best solution and decision regarding this problem.

[Strongkored]

In my opinion, all of this requires a long process to make Saudi Arabia one of the top teams in the world. They have successfully promoted their domestic leagues and they have invested heavily in football. But in fact, as far as I know, Saudi Arabia is not a country that has a football culture so it will be very difficult to see results in the 2026 world cup. I think if they are consistent in recruiting top European players and developing their young players then they will be able to surprise the world in the 2030 world cup or 2034.

Recruiting more European players to play in their league will only make their league more popular, and I doubt it will have a positive impact on their national teams in the world cup either in 2026 or when they host it, as with more for foreign players, it will be difficult for local players to get the opportunity to play in regular competitions, they will still have clubs but will not be the coach's first choice and will often be on the bench, which means their skills will not be tested. In fact, the league in Saudi Arabia should start thinking about limiting foreign players who can play in each club so that their local players can compete well, because the way these players have better skills by getting a place to play regularly unless their players can get places in other leagues like Europe but there are not many Arab players, even South Korean or Japanese players play more in European leagues, that's why both countries are better in the world cup than Saudi Arabia.
Not being a country with a football culture is no reason, as long as they continue to develop football in their country they will be able to compete better, but if they only focus on making their league famous then their national team will remain ordinary in the next world cup.

[LUCKMCFLY]

We cannot deny that the ability and financial strength that Qatar currently has makes it very easy for them to provide modern facilities and infrastructure to support their football development, so I think in the next few years we may see Qatar and Saudi Arabia become football powers that will indeed be able to compete with countries such as Brazil and Argentina. 

I share that thought, just by looking at the Saudi league it is something new and that can give us an idea that the investment of money gives its results, for now they are taking the most monumental soccer stars, making them big salary offers, you have to be crazy like not to accept them, then this makes those players take their technique and the Saudi players take advantage of them and learn them, gain experience and make the difference in a World Cup, it is really very intelligent what they do, I saw the game between Argentina and Canada, the opening game, it seemed to me that Canada is a very very good team, of course it had its faults that the Argentines took advantage of and won, but I really thought that it is a very well positioned team and what they lack is more experience of playing in different styles of soccer, then if Saudi soccer takes advantage of it, it is a very good team This approach will achieve many good things in the near future.

Recruiting European top players will not makes their football developing well and the affect from this method is only to makes their football league which in this case is Saudi Pro League will be more popular but indeed because countries in the Middle East are mostly rich countries which with the power of money they can do everything and currently people may to see that Saudi Arabia clubs with their money can bought several famous players to playing at Saudi Pro League

I have read the news that Saudi Arabia is officially will being an the host of world cup 2034 and i think this showing that they have full commitment to develop their football and i am sure Saudi Arabia will have long term project but hopefully they will not make the same mistakes as Qatar because although Qatar was successful as the host of the World Cup 2022 but their performance was a mess up at the time however about Saudi Arabia currently this team trained by Roberto Mancini and on Asian Cup Saudi Arabia performance is dissapointing but Mancini still optimistic he can bringing this team to qualified to World Cup 2026

They got 10 years to get ready for this great event. I'm sure just like what we saw in the past in Qatar when they were hosting the World Cup, Saudi Arabia will also spend too much money and try to build fantastic stadiums to get ready for the 2034 World Cup.
But the good thing is 2026 we are going to see the World Cup hosted in multiple countries including America where they have enough sports facilities to not spend a huge amount of money for it.

The 2034 World Cup is still far off, giving Saudi Arabia plenty of time to get ready. If we look at what Qatar has done, pouring huge amounts of money into creating amazing stadiums and infrastructure, it is highly probable that Saudi Arabia will follow suit. The World Cup in 2034 will be the result of these preparations: it looms large on the horizon.

The distinction though, is starkly different from the 2026 World Cup. In 2026, the event will be hosted across multiple nations, with some like the United States already well equipped with sports facilities. As such, they do not need to invest heavily in new infrastructure; this allows them the capacity to direct more attention towards organizing and executing prosperous events.

I couldn't agree more. Like I said yesterday, the fact that the folks at Saudi Arabia are constantly attracting and bringing the top talents to the league is a really big deal because if these talents have a good influence on their players, it would make a great deal for their national team. Btw, I didn't know Saudi has been picked for the 2034 world cup — I did a quick Google search to confirm. I believe by the time it gets to 2034, Saudi would be ranked nicely in world football. Probably not among the best teams but somewhere in between will do since it's still a young football nation.

[Weawant]

The problem with Saudi Arabia is all they have is money and they cannot use the potential they have. In fact, one reason for the Saudi Arabia teams to buy superstar players and spend too much money for these players is that they want to be a more powerful country and be a better host for the World Cup in the next years. This can help this country to earn to more money and on the other hand this can help Saudi Arabia to have more and better players in the country and attract more attention.

Does the Saudi Arabia sides see the fact that money is the most they have got an issues, I believe they are even beginning to capitalize on the fact that money is the most they have got ,to restructuring their football, buying super stars from English teams and even European teams so as to strengthen their teams and then gradually get their player to learn from these big names and that way they will be gradually building their leagues to the point they may not be needing those top players they brought in any more, probably they most have gotten holed of the athletic business and understood and participate d more in it on daily basis.

The Saudi side is actually growing a very formidable league that will soon turn out to be the envy of the others and ofcourse in the coming years ahead, the chance that they will be able to have built a very standard league that can contest the European leagues is something that will be supersing. The Arab sides will definitely get attention of they request to boat the world cup because by then they must ha e built good reputation around football which will include both infrastructure and the league strength, they will be considered because they have increased their Chances and odds by putting things together long before it will be needed. 

[joniboini]

I believe by the time it gets to 2034, Saudi would be ranked nicely in world football. Probably not among the best teams but somewhere in between will do since it's still a young football nation.

What makes you so confident that their football league will grow splendidly in the upcoming years? Is there any research on their football development progress? I found one research focusing more on its cultural impact, which claims football has helped Saudi Arabia become more moderate in recent years but nothing about their national football development goal[1]. Other reports suggest that they still have a lot of things to do to make the league appealing to viewers and international players[2]. Another report suggests a more positive outlook, highlighting the increase in youth players' participation in the league[3]. Some biases affect the analysis so it's hard to say for sure unless we can more data and reports (plus identify which media has heavy biases).

Late last year, FIFA announced the Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 FIFA World Cup which means that the Middle East country have a little over 10 years to prepare for football's biggest competition. Currently, Saudi Arabia is not considered as a strong football nation but we all saw how they had a good performance in the last edition of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Saudi Arabia was the only team in that tournament to beat eventual winners Argentina so I think they have a good chance of building a strong team that'll be competitive enough to face the rest of the world when they host the tournament in 10 years time. Currently, Saudi Arabian football chiefs are doing exceptionally well to improve the quality of football in the country as they've influenced the signing of some of the best players to the Saudi Pro League in other to improve the quality of football in the country.
With the recent improvement in the quality of football in Saudi league, I strongly believe that they'll be able to build a Saudi national team will deliver great performances when they host the FIFA World Cup.

They got 10 years to get ready for this great event. I'm sure just like what we saw in the past in Qatar when they were hosting the World Cup, Saudi Arabia will also spend too much money and try to build fantastic stadiums to get ready for the 2034 World Cup.
But the good thing is 2026 we are going to see the World Cup hosted in multiple countries including America where they have enough sports facilities to not spend a huge amount of money for it.

Yes, there is still plenty of time to start preparing everything, and the preparations that must be made are to start repairing several main stadiums even though I sure Saudi has many very luxurious stadiums and also some very good service venues.
Maybe this will record new history as the host of the most luxurious and best World Cup after Qatar, Saudi has enormous financial support to support the 2034 World Cup competition running very smoothly and comfortably.
But the most important thing is that Saudi will get ticket to be able to compete in this most prestigious event and Saudi will definitely be very happy to be able to take part, even if in the end they will also be the same as Qatar, where they fall faster.

Yes, in the 2026 World Cup we will see the competition being held in 3 different countries, maybe this could affect the performance of each team because they have to move between each match, but who knows what the concept of the match will be but I sure FIFA will organize it well.
