FIFA World Cup
It seems that most pundits are tipping the following four teams as the favourites to win this year’s FIFA World Cup – Germany, Brazil, France and Spain.
All four of these sides have strength in depth in their squads and that is a vital element when heading into these big cup competitions.
To win the World Cup, a side has to play 7 matches within one month. This can be very strenuous and a good coach will use all the players they have at their disposal to keep players happy and fresh.
Football is a team sport and it is important that there is a good, positive feeling in the camp and that all the players will have a certain role to play in the team.
23 Squads
Out of the squads of 23 that are making their way to Russia, only 11 players can start the game and only three substitutes can make their way off the bench and onto the pitch.
This means that there will be 9 players who have to stay patient and wait for their turn, but it is so important that these players do not cause any trouble in the camp, instead, they must be positive and supportive of their teammates who are in the starting line-up.
Remember back in the FIFA World Cup in 2010 when the French squad had some world-class players at their disposal by all means, they should have been tipped as favourites to win the tournament in South Africa, however, there was a terrible vibe in their camp and many internal issues were brewing.
These internal issues eeked their way onto the pitch and the players were not performing to their best ability. Fighting between Evra, Anelka and coach Domenech was there for all to see as a video leaked of arguments and fighting in training.
The French side was knocked out in the group phases and went home early with a terrible taste in their mouth. Could this year be their redemption?
