The major problem with increasing the amount of bad teams in the World Cup is you’re gonna get some insnanely tilted matchups in the group stage. This means that let’s say if an Elite team plays an extremely poor team a player can win the golden boot in pretty much one game. Many groups will be decided by how many goals are scored on the clear weaker team in each group. It’s not fun to watch, I don’t want to see a team like India get pounded by multiple teams in the group stage. I don’t think it will grow the game, what grows the game starts at the ground root level and developing talent properly and creating affordable leagues so every child can play football.
I want to see the best countries play each other throughout the entirety of the tournament. If a country wants to make the World Cup the current qualification methods are more than fair and makes international football interesting the two years preceding the World Cup. Qatar is gonna be a complete #### show.
I’m not even a fan of regional qualifying, but I guess you can’t change it. It’s stupid that Saudi Arabia is in the tournament and Italy is not.
