    How could arsenal have taken it if there’s a 2 club limit from each country with Man City and Chelsea already there. That’s the reason Liverpool didn’t get in.
    Arsenal only got in if they won it. 
    Two club per country unless they have actually won the champions league in that period

    Correct, if you win your confederations Champions league during the 4 year period then you get in regardless. Brazil have 4 teams in it and Mexico have 3.

    The new CWC has had a lot of detractors but it's importance has been bumped up a lot by the news in the last 24 hours.

    A broadcaster for the tournament has been confirmed with DAZN signing a $1bn deal with FIFA.

    There are reports that clubs like Man City and Chelsea will now be set to earn between £50m and £60m just for taking part, with the winners of the whole tournament set to earn £120m. Crazy money that i think will have a few club owners having a word in their managers ears about taking this tournament a lot more seriously now.

    couldn't give a toss if Saudi Arabia host it to be honest. Just as I didn't care it was held in Qatar

    More annoyed it is likely to be in January

    What even is the criteria for this. Are Inter Miami in it because they have Messi or have they actually achieved their place?
    They finished top of the league in the MLS regular season so FIFA moved quickly and 'invited' them as the host nation gets a guest spot.
    So basically 'Yes' to the Messi question. Really think they could hype it up without Ronaldo or Messi in the tournament.
