when will football fans realise that football is played all over the world and their is a league in virtually every single country in the world.
Due to the different weather conditions not all the leagues have games at the same time, Norway in Europe play during the summer. as do a lot of other leagues too.
As such there is a difference between the levels of performance , and match fitness of different teams throughout the world and no ideal time for everyone to play.
As such FIFA have the international calendar which has dates throughout the year, some of which may be bad for England and other dates which are great for England but are at times when it is the start of other leagues or when players are on holiday as the league is shut down.
We could just let nations themselves decide when to play matches like the Africa Nations Cup which is outside this window and we all know the havok that cause with players leaving for weeks during the league. So that clearly doesn't work which is why the FIFA International windows work very well
For all those who says this is a stupid time for a game come up with a better solution ?
