I think Ronaldo being in this one would be very very weird. Dude is already 37-38 years old, meaning by the time we are in 2026, that would make him at least 40, maybe 41 I don't know when it is. So that means he would be much worse than he is right now, and we have seen him not be that great this year already, so the fact that he could play on the next one would be insane, he would be much worse and not worth it at all.

I think it's quite important to remember that the best thing to do would be just making sure that he would be not hurting the team. You could end up with something much better if he was called but not played, it would be like a veteran legend out there helping the players psychologically at the very best case, but not playing.

I think Ronaldo signing up at Saudi Arabia was basically him retiring of high level competition.

There's no chance he's even called to the next World Cup, even if he wanted to.

Even in Qatar he was substituted and the substitute played way better than him.

There's only downhill from now, getting older and playing for years in a lower quality competition in Saudi Arabia. Not a chance he plays the next world cup.

regarding changes in temperature that will affect player performance, of course this is no longer a big problem for professional players at the world cup because they must be able to quickly adapt to the temperatures around the field

The US and Canada seem cold and cool, only in Mexico is it possible that some of the players competing there have to adjust to the temperature there

I think Qatar weather is very hot, and if player's were able to adapt to the weather in Qatar that of Mexico/Canada/USA won't be a problem. Weather has never been a problem to player's, they will always adapt in any environment they find themselves. Weather in Canada is always favourable to sport men.

The event which was held at the world cup yesterday in Qatar, was designed in such a way that the air temperature inside the stadium was cool because the organizers had taken it into account and prepared long before the show was held and Qatar had successfully held it despite the controversy surrounding it.
Likewise with the World Cup in 2026, at least the organizing committee, namely the host, has planned as much detail as possible for the convenience of the players and visitors who will witness this most prestigious event. Qatar is one of those who have successfully held it, and so far none of the players have complained about the weather conditions after the world cup ended.

As for the world cup later, the temperature or weather in the three countries is not as extreme as in Qatar. after all, as professional football players they are used to playing in any conditions. like one of them when Africa hosted, Japan and South Korea with cold temperatures, as well as Qatar. so, we don't need to worry about temperature and weather issues especially in Mexico, Canada, the US, the temperatures are not too extreme for the teams that will compete later.

This was the last world cup of Messi and Ronaldo and of Neymar.
It was confirmed even before the Qatar world cup.. The big name like Messi ended up giving another star to the Argentina after Maradona

How do you know this will be Neymar's last World Cup? Where did you get this information?

After the defeat by Croatia, Neymar commented that he does not know if he will go to the next world cup (I even dare to say that he commented on this because he was sad and frustrated by the elimination of Brazil.

Several people believe Neymar will play the next world cup, including myself.
Neymar will be 34 years old, an acceptable age, unlike Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, who will be 39 years old and 41 years old respectively.

In 2026, I imagine Messi will have the conditions and ability/skills to participate in the world cup, unlike Cristiano Ronaldo, who will be 41 years old, for me, he will not be able to participate in the next world cup

I heard that too the its Neymar last world cup.
But about Messi and Ronaldo - it is confirmed that they will not be playing next world cup - however you will see it yourself that Neymar wont be playing 2026 world cup

But i have a question... won't we have big differences in temperatures during some games?
Because the world cup is held in 3 different countries. For example, in Canada we know there is a cold country (generality), but on the other hand, in Dallas, Houston and even Mexico, temperatures tend to be warmer than in Canada, could this be a problem and could it harm some teams ?

Canada and Mexico will only get rations for the group stage and after that all matches will be played in the United States that I know and surely teams playing in Canada will need adjustments, lucky for teams playing in Mexico because they will get relatively the same weather as the United States. And you're right, the cities in Canada that will hold matches will be relatively colder that month than cities in Mexico or in the United States, you can see examples on this website.
Weather adjustments can be detrimental but they can't complain about that as happened during the World Cup in Qatar which was relatively hotter than the previous host countries.

Messi has indicated that he still wants to play a number of matches in the shirt of Argentina. I don't think you can plan such things very far in advance. One footballer stops when he is 33, the other only when he is 39. I don't know how fit Messi will be in 3.5 years, but it doesn't seem to me that he will still be physically able to participate actively in the World Cup. He could perhaps have another role in the team, but he is not waiting for that. Ronaldo is already out of the Portuguese national selection, and since he has gone to Saudi Arabia to play football there, he will no longer be included in the selection. Not for the European Championship next year and certainly not for the World Cup in 2026. Still 3.5 years before that starts. That sounds so far away.

Thanks for your contribution guys...

I didn't know that the first games of 2026 World Cup would be held in Mexico (group stage).
I believe like this way some teams will ""have an advantage"" in relation to temperature, travel/distance and others.

But I have no doubt that this will indeed be a challenge, because it will be the first time, the World Cup will be hosted in 3 different countries.

I know that in Qatar it is extremely hot, but my question is how some players will react in relation to the temperatures, for example, a team will have to play a game in Canada (cold), and the next game of that same team will be in Dallas/Houston which for most of the year has a high temperature, could the big difference in temperatures harm or affect some players?

I don't think the temperature will be a problem.
Just look at the example of Qatar, where the temperatures were quite high, even playing in there in a different month.
USA alone is a big country whith different temperatures.

Look at temperature averages for June and July:

USA: June: 18° to 28°C - July: 21° to 31°C

And only 20 matches of group stage will be disputed in Canada and Mexico.
So, it's not a problem in my opinion

Quote from: nullama on January 30, 2023, 12:15:00 AM

I don't really know why they wanted to do it like this, so disperse, when they could have done it only in one place, much simpler.

To attract more people, more money, Canada and Mexico don't need to spend a lot of money in stadiums, infrasctruture etc, with more matches being disputed, this is probably a test to the next cups, and could be the new rule, in 2030 we can see 4 countries of South America or 3 countries of Europe.

Ronaldo has not been playing at the highest level for the last 2-3 years and this can clearly be seen from his statistics.
But his ego and selfishness during that time destroyed the ambitions and sports results of Juve, Manchester United and finally the Portuguese national team in Qatar.
Not only will Ronaldo not play in the next world cup in 2026 but it was a serious mistake that he even played for Portugal in the last world cup in 2022 in Qatar.
With his behavior and arrogance, he damaged the atmosphere in the Portuguese team and made it impossible for them to show their quality and maybe play in the final.
He is no longer a football player, but a rich retiree who wants to play recreational football in Saudi Arabia for huge sums of money Grin

Whatever we say - Ronaldo is yet a very powerful player and we all have all eyes focus on him all the time!
Let's not forget that he moved the cocacola market with his one disapproval - this is success.

What I know is that Ronaldo has reach the phase of is career that is performance won't be as good like the way it used to be, some teams won't like to use him now. I don't think Ronaldo is ad bad like the way people thinks. When Ronaldo was still very active we never heard of any one complaining about is attitude , the issue Ronaldo is having with any team is just because of his performance at the moment.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe this will be the first time in history that the world cup will be held in 3 different countries. In 2002 it was held in 2 countries, Japan and South Korea.

I have no doubt, there are countries that have a great facility to play in the cold, others in the heat.
I know that playing with large differences in temperature is not as crucial as playing at altitude, like in some countries in South America, well, that's my question and I would like to know your answer.

Yes, this is the first time that the world cup will be hosted in three different countries.

This has many challenges, specially visas, but also weather and other conditions as you suggested.

Also, travel time, accommodation at different places, different languages, etc. It's going to be very challenging.

I don't really know why they wanted to do it like this, so disperse, when they could have done it only in one place, much simpler.

At the end of the day, most of the games are going to be played in the US anyway, so I wonder why the need to add other two countries into the mix.

It was the FA of the US, Mexico, and Canada that decided to jointly bid for the World Cup and they won the bid. Before now it was just Japan and Korea that have jointly hosted the world cup. But these three nations share common boundaries which means it might be easy to access all of them during the world cup. And it will also give football fans the opportunity of enjoying the culture and environment of their nations. All three countries indeed can host the world cup, but variety is what makes life interesting and not boring.

Argentina's coach has made it clear that the door will always be open for Lionel Measi. Lionel Scaloni declared that it is up to the Argentine captain to decide if he wants to be part of the 2026 world cup. Messi will be close to 40 years before the next world cup, I doubt if his performance would still be optimal before then. But even having Messi on the bench will definitely be a big motivation for the team.

what you say is very true, the prestige is really needed by the fifa world cup so that it continues to be the biggest sporting event in the world always and it is very good if FIFA continues to maintain it for 4 years

I myself see that what FIFA has been doing for a long time has been very good, the selection they have made has also been very good so far so increasing the number of countries playing will only add to the burden and I think it will be bad for the future of the world cup

I believe that year after year the FIFA management/staff intends to make some changes in the future world cups, I confess that I am not a sports specialist, but I do not know if the insertion of more countries in the world cup will be something extremely beneficial , I have no doubt that this will help a small country that has never participated in a world cup, but I have no doubt that it could lower the level of future world cups.
For me, an icing on the cake of the world cup is the fact that it takes place every 4 years.

The changes made in recent seasons haven't affected the teams or the football game in any means. Similar will be the changes, and the move of adding more teams will make football even high. When more countries gets chance to participate, it truly make more people turn to be fans of football. More teams into FIFA won't affect the future of Football which is really a wrong guess.
