Tends to usually lead to very bland finals due to the amount of games these players play.
Which this now has piqued my thinking for the WC.
Historically, playing in June/July, just weeks after most major leagues conclude, has players pretty fatigued mentally and physically. Leading to very tentative, low scoring matches.
This year, playing in November, which is usually 2 months into league play, fresh minds, fresh legs, may very well lead to some of the best soccer we will see.
