I agree with UEFA.

They can hold their own "World Cup".

Well that's brilliant, I thought they'd all jump for the 40 pieces of silver offered.

Americanised football (and it will be) is something that genuine football fans never want to see . . and probably couldn't afford to see anyway.

Greed. Super league. World cup. Why don't they just own their own currency instead of leeching off, or even preying on the established.

Concacaf has come out against it as well (Basically Canada/USA/Mexico and associated countries).
