Generally it’s regional qualifying though. Not everyone qualifying randomly together

I was hoping someone would do a sort of regional or continental cup. Like let’s take regions like Scandinavia for instance where each team can only draft say 7 players max from each country and try to make the best squad out of it as it competes with other regions. I know this can get politically murky, like North and South Korea or even worse right now with Russia Ukraine. But I think someone could find a sensitive way to pull it off.

Imagine Fifa doing something like this every 20 years, stop club football for a season and just make a big world cup tournaments with every nation in the world in it, sounds awsome

Amazing video. But I am suspecting that FM has overrated a lot of players 😂

Ah man, simulated the Finnish football experience perfectly. 6 teams go through with a good chance to be with them but finishing 7th

My biggest takeaway from this video is that FM forgot to program the bozo gene into the Norwegian national team

Belgium struggling to beat a team is on form for them in tournaments

USA getting grouped in a group that seems easy with the likes of Scotland, Iceland, DRCongo and Canada on the third round is realistic.

Headcoach of the 15 years old and assistent coach to the 16 years old. Anyway. if u ever feel like u dont know what save to start next, it would be fun to see you start one in the swedish 2nd div. and take IFK skövde all the way to europa leauge. Fm 24 is actually the first year IFK Skövde made their way in to fm. and as of now we are leading the leauge and are set to be promoted if we keep it up the rest of the season.

Very fitting that the two greatest World cup nations are in the final of the biggest World cup tournament

So how does it work? Do you play it alongside the domestic leagues over a season or can you start without leagues and just play the tournament? Edit: I started a game with Scotland with just the Scottish league on (which starts July 2023) and the first three rounds are already over (and Scotland are out...shocker). Seems it starts March 2022. So how do I get to start then? Or is there a way to schedule it to start with a new game?

Do a Round Robin tournament of all these teams. Because why not.

Norways run topping the 2 first groupstages and making it out of to very hard groups after that, to then knock out booth Belgium and Spain in the knockouts is both shocking and sad to see when the real team can’t even qualify.
