    We're allowed to skip a round in order to play in this mickey mouse supercup. That's the new format, participants are allowed to skip a round.

    Each team had 12,000 tickets to sell themselves, but they've been almost entirely returned for sale in Jeddah. Real Madrid sold 700, Barcelona 300, Atletico Madrid 50 and Valencia 25. [Marca]

    Awful. Team should boycott this pathetic event in the middle of the season somewhere in Arabia. smth

    Wow. How much is the FA getting from the Saudis?

    I think it’s 40 million per season. The contract is for 3 seasons.

    Yea, 6 ME per year will go to grassroots development.

    Relano had an article supporting Spanish FA's decision to accept Saudi bid.

    No FA has thought of scraping a super cup and implementing something like NBA all star week?

    Have an all star game, best skills, best free kick, best passer trophies, etc.
    I think it would make for a more interesting feature for a league. Could be done a week or two before a season starts.

    Events like that can only be held at more civilized sports, and icehockey.

    Football is mostly about competition and winning at any cost. Fans don't care about anything beyond their team.

    I fcking love Copa Del Ray. Can't wait to see Vinicius, Jovic, Rodrygo, James & Militao start games.

    Vinicius-Jovic-Rodrygo
    James-Modric-Isco
    Marcelo-Militao-Nacho-Odriozola

    The tournament is a 1 match affair now, only the semi final is home/away. Won't be the way it was. After salamanca we're in the round of 8 where it will most likely be a first division team.

    I still wouldn’t be surprised to see some rotations in those matches. Looking at dates:

    Round of 16 is on 29th of January

    Quarterfinal is on 5th of February

    we have the Madrid Derby in La Liga couched in between these fixtures on 1st of February.

    Zizou will gamble and rotate in the R16 for sure

    Maybe but if the rotation 11 doesn't win the match, all these guys are getting cannonballed to the moon.

    I’m pretty sure Casemiro will play, also I have no interest in seeing Isco in a 3 man midfield
