too many crap concacaf and asia africas in this world cup

They expand to 48 but europe only has 16 teams, should be more like half for them. Would rather see denmark italy ireland etc

I like a lot of teams

Hate the whole concept of expanding to 48. Should’ve never expanded the Cup and kept it at 32. Diluted the product and then raised the ticket prices. Complete money grabbing garbage.

Show some respect for the africa nations.

There really is a massive disparity in teams here.
Should Curacao really be in this instead of Italy?

Seems like we need to adjust the qualification process if we're at 48 teams to try and find the best teams to compete.

But why? The reason to expand is for money. So expand to include these smaller or “never been to Cup” countries that wouldn’t have a chance. Plus, it’s better to have creampuffs for the better countries. Countries like Italy and Poland had their chance and that market has been tapped.

Bottom line is that if you accept the expansion, then embrace the reason which is expanding the markets for money. It was not for competition.
