Not gonna lie as this tournament keeps expanding it gets less and less watchable. I rather watch my club teams play in their respective tournaments
Stopped watching several years ago. Didn't watch WC. The quality of NT football is really poor too. 11 players that have barely played together try to gel, so they focus on getting their defensive shape at least (not all, but most, teams like Spain are outliers). The cost of watching football keeps getting up, so I will only pay to watch Juve and stay away from the rest. I would rather put that money on something else. And most NTs is like watching a Serie B eleven that happens to have signed Haaland or some WC player, it's just strange. It can be fun, but I'd rather watch something else. This is also plays a part in my interest in football decreasing year by year. UEFA and FIFA loundering and greenwashing, NT football not really entertaining because it is no longer exotic since they play all the time. And Juve trying to win the award of most dreadful interpretation of football. I envy all of you who can keep the passion going.

Agree. With the game count these players play and then having to squeeze national team duty into it all at the same time with all those tournaments it’s watered down the product greatly all around and it’s not interesting nor does it crown the actual worlds best at the end. If a team was truly the best they would win euros and wc but rarely has that happened

Whats happening at the grassroots level that has stopped Italy from producing more than like 3 great players at a time for the last couple of decades. Especially if you look at the attackers, absolutely dog shit for 20 years
Teams ( including Juve ) rather save some money and sign some shit player from South America or Eastern Europe instead of building youth.

Usually it's not on the top teams to develop these guys unless they're blessed with an Insane academy like Barcelona.

We're supposed to scoop them up in their mid 20s but they're all dogshit
