I think the World Cup should allow in one side made up of talent that has not made it due to their sides non qualification ,they could play under the UNICEF team banner players like Bale , Robben, Buffon ,Patterson .
Selection would be by FIFA rankings , based on non qualified sides.
I think that is a terrible idea.
The Harlem Globetrotters.
So it's basically a free entry for the highest ranked team not to qualify. Can't see that being too popular.Quote:

Yes, after everone has qualified, you take FIFA's top 30 players from around the world (not attending ) a chance to showcase, it would have giving players like George Best in the past, a chance to shine on the world's stage , bearing in mind many stars would already there with there through qualification of country.
Would make a mockery of the whole thing
Could McDonald's enter a team? Maybe Starbucks too? ..
A bit like having the finals in Qatar.Quote:

My brother was at this game, look at 'um all in their suits & ties :hehe:
I got 2 match day programmes from it as well.
Better still, select the top 20 ranked players in the world (or as close as allowing for all positions to be filled) and have some sort of Eggheads/Chase competition where countries have to try and beat the best in the world.
YepQuote:
