Episode 72 : Fanalytics FIFPRO World XI Review

With the announcement of the FIFA FIFPRO Men’s World 11 this week, we break down the chosen team and ask who is the most deserving of a place. On the topic of European competition, we take a look at the upcoming “Swiss model” for the UEFA Champions League in 2024-25. Will the new format make the competition a better or worse spectacle? Will there be more heavyweight sclashes? Can we convince Ryan that change is a good thing, sometimes? Will more games also mean more injuries? We look at FIFPro’s “Player Workload Monitoring Tool” to outline just how little rest and recovery the top athletes get for club and country.
