As football club fans we all know how boring those weekend's on international breaks for clubs usually feels like. For a fan like me it's like the whole world just stands still and everything seems irregular all through the weekends staying without club matches.

A football fan will be a fan of both a national team and a club. It's abnormal if a person is only a fan of a club but not a fan of any national team.

By being a fan of a club and a national team, I believe that person will not feel boring with International break and FIFA days. Big international tournaments like World Cup, EURO, Coppa America always have their attraction and I can say about myself, I am interested in watching those tournaments.

FIFA days will bring many problems to clubs because players will be either tired after international duties or worse be injured and need time to recharge their energy or to recover from injuries.

so will you as a football club fan wish/like it if international breaks is scrapped in football yearly calendar, so we can continue watching our favorite football club leagues and teams all the weekends and midweeks. Are you a fan of international breaks or not let's know your thoughts.

It is a good question. If we are talking about friendlies then I would definitely want this kind of national breaks to be removed from the regular season. Grin

Because even players don't give their 100% into this kind of matches as there is no goal to achieve. It isn't much different than the friendlies being played between teams before a season starts.

Besides there is a risk for players to get injured in these matches. This is affecting teams about their ultimate goals during the season quite much too. Sad

Another interesting question is this, as a father would you force it on your child to also fan the same club you're a fan to, or you will allow him be himself to fan any club of his choice even if it's your most rival club of all times.

I would never force my child to become a fan of the team I'm a fan of. This doesn't make sense to me. It is up to my child what team to support. Even if it is the direct rival of the team I'm a fan of there is no problem at all.

I'm just trying to have fun while watching sports.

Rivalry is in every sports branch but this shouldn't turn into hostility. People should be able to respect themselves.

If there's an international breaks, just watch your own national team match or other nation that's where your favorite player is playing.

As a father, you need to allow your child to choose whatever he like as long as his choice didn't harm anyone, it's really childish if you force your child to follow what you want. There are a lot parents force their children to follow what they want, it end up either they leave the house or joined a wrong society.

You guys outside the US think that's bad, Image how us Americans feel for 8 freaking months without NFL football. Sure NBA basketball is huge here (of course the globes second most popular sport) and a lot of us love MLB Baseball, but NFL football is what many of us live for, especially now that gambling is legal here nationwide and fantasy football ( a form of gambling, of course) is absolutely massive. People use to get fired for looking at their fantasy teams at work, now most of us have a work fantasy league. We are currently in the hell zone lol.

This is not possible, as much as I can enjoy watching some of my favorite sports, the players on the field are people too, so not only they need to take a vacation from time to time, they are also high performance athletes, and anyone that has exercised with some regularity knows that resting is as important as the exercise itself in order to recover from any injuries you may have.

So if clubs were crazy enough to do this, you can be sure the number of players getting injured will skyrocket, affecting significantly the length of their careers and lowering the performance clubs can get out of them.

You can't be a football fan and you don't feel bored at the break of time when your club league is on hold due to the international break's, you don't have to be a glued or stanched fan to feel it, only being a club football fan puts you in that position. I will understand and agree if you had said that the break becomes necessary that players should do service to their nation to represent as a responsibility but about moderation for fan it doesn't apply in my concept or view.

Normally not problem with international break and FIFA have many important schedule match during break out from FIFA World Cup qualifier all zone, EURO qualifier until some national teams need to make friendly match. I dislike with international break out the impact for each clubs their players returning back with injury after playing one or two international break out match. All European competition on crucial right now they are fighting for winning the domestic league race, what happen when few matches left their main players have got injury and potential will loss opportunity for winning domestic league until champion league tittle.
I think FIFA need reschedule with international break out exactly on crucial match on April until May without any schedule yet because all clubs on crucial position for winning domestic league and champion league trophies.

This is crazy. What about the players' rest? We cannot be selfish thinking about our entertainment only. This is the time for them to relax, contemplate, check their tapes, or maybe run some advertisements so they can make more money.
Also, I think this is when they prepare themselves mentally so that they will be stronger once the tournament starts again. It's just a week or a couple, I guess we can also try to relax on that time for a bit. It will definitely be fast and we won't even notice it.

I would not force him to do anything. Let him decide what team he wants and respect that. Some kids may want some change or want something that is different and I am cool with that because I have been in the same position many times. Trying to be unique.
Two of my kids have different players on different teams that they like. I was actually amazed that they like the game while I don't really have that kind of energy watching the games. Cheesy

Op you raise good questions and if I will answer them I will say let's the international football break should be so that footballers can use that period to travel to go and meet their families across the globe. Op what you like might not what others like. So I will prefer them to have the break so that they will have time with their immediately families and probably gone out for vocation and beaches to have some funds. And also those families that the husbands like to watch football will also have break for the main time. Even this international football break is on, there are friendly matches that are going on. Like, Nigeria vs Ghana just concluded their matches and Nigeria won the match.
So indirectly even though the international football break is on, the individual countries might not be on break because of local matches and regional matches.

I was not aware of the football league's International breaks this weekend, so this afternoon I was checking livescors to see which match we hard for the Sunday nd to my greatest surprise there was no International football game listed and I know the various league's are already on break and could be taking some days to probably a week before we be having our favorite clubs and teams back on the field again.

Until then we can keep ourselves busy with some few local leagues football games till the International leagues break is over.

International breaks are done for so many reasons. Athletes as well as people involve in these leagues need a time out also. It is like their day off from the field and they also need that to refresh their strength, stamina or even their targets for the season.

I would like my kids or children to choose on their own. They are different individuals than me, so I would like to have them free will on any decision in life. I will be here to guide them but at the end of the day, they will choose what they want for their life. So long they are happy with their choices, I am also happy for them.

International breaks have some disadvantages. Injury is the main disadvantage because it will be hard for team to play international football be it friendly games or qualifiers that will end completely perfect withou injury to some key players in the big teams playing in the Europ top leagues.

As a fan, if my country is playing in that time frame, I will be happy to watch the match and pray for injury free game, although fans always get angry when they missed their normal weekend league matches.

This is a personal opinion and choice, it should not be related around family, but that doesn’t mean that fathers and sons can not be rivals when it comes to football. But in my opinion,, a father should not select or chose his club to his son to support, because even after selecting for the boy, ones the boy grows up, they will change to their desired club.

A league could make it so the schedule isn't pre-defined by very early on so only those teams that reach international levels this season could have breaks. Of course this would kinda delay some things but I've seen it happen in some countries, so others could also follow suit.

But if a country has a complicated system for its leagues it also makes it complicated to know which teams have chances for advancing to the international level. So this is something that depends on what each country really intends to do. For me though, it doesn't matter that much. It's ok to do something else for a couple of weeks when still in season. And I guess most teams like to be able to plan ahead because it allows them to manage their events and fan engagement better.

No, I'm not fan of international breaks but I do like Football and watch some matches of those leagues. For the fans of those clubs they can't miss any match but I'm someone who may watch those matches only so I can make a proper bet.

I enjoy watching the matches no doubt, but I don't pick one club or team as my favorite and other as unfavorite. I only go with the teams that are mostly likely closing to winning, and I'm very careful when I bet of football matches.

Can't football lovers do other activities for fun during the period when there's international break in football Leagues/clubs? I fans football and spot activities but that doesn't mean that am even 60% dedicated to watching football. I prefer to read about the match and also see highlights but devoting the time to go watch match every weekend is a big task for me. School activities is hectic already and I have to assist in some family activities. I can be comfortable and reluctant during international brake.

Haha right? Football lovers can definitely find other activities to enjoy during international breaks. While some fans may live and breathe football, others may have other interests and commitments that take priority. Reading about matches, watching highlights or even participating in other sports or hobbies can be just as enjoyable. It's all about finding the balance that works best for you and enjoying football in a way that fits into your lifestyle

To be honest, I like betting on sports betting and gambling every weekend, but if there is an international break like this, it really helps me to try to take a break to gamble, after all, it's not all the time, right and we can still bet on international sports betting, it doesn't have to be in the league. Also, I can spend my time with my family during the international break so it doesn't matter if I don't gamble for a while, at least I can take a break from gambling and just go on holiday with the family.

For active gamblers in sports betting, of course it is very boring if there is an international break. I am not an active gambler who gambles all the time and only gambles on weekends, so even though the league matches are on break there is no problem for me because I can still divide my time into other things. and besides, entertainment is not only gambling, you can do other things out there such as fishing, playing golf or sports with friends or family, that's more than enough not to have to complain about this international break either. Make this event a step to prevent yourself from getting addicted to gambling, at least you can take a break from gambling for a while.

As for the fans I can't imagine what the fans will be needing moderation for in games they are not the ones in active play on the pitch buy just mere spectators on the sidelines or TV screens.

Of course this is the angle I was referring to moderation, on the side of the fans. Like you posted in Op, some fans are so hooked up to football that it could affect their daily lives especially if their team loses which means they are so engrossed in it , the passion is so high. But if they have a moderate passion or zeal for it then when they go on break, that fan won't feel like a rib was taken out of him and he will missing it so much like water. In moderation I mean not to be glued to it to the extent that if there is a break for the players, fans will start wishing they didn't go for such break. I understand it is almost like that for most of the football fans that they get bored that the game will go on break but some fans will also not miss it as such because they are moderate lovers of the game.

You can't be a football fan and you don't feel bored at the break of time when your club league is on hold due to the international break's, you don't have to be a glued or stanched fan to feel it, only being a club football fan puts you in that position. I will understand and agree if you had said that the break becomes necessary that players should do service to their nation to represent as a responsibility but about moderation for fan it doesn't apply in my concept or view.

I really don't like the weeks when international matches are played because I get used to the natural flow of league matches and then I see the national matches start and time comes in between. I don't like that gap for league matches. To answer your other question, I would like him to support the same team as my own child, so that we can spend time together and support the same team.

If he loves another team and wants to be a fan of that team, I won't force him to do so.

I will groom my child to support my favorite team, he or she will grow up becoming a Chelsea fan. Supportive winnings is definitely what every team and players needs in their football career. I preferred the club level football to become more important and developing than the international breaks. Never been acquainted with the system because it comes with a whole lot of unqualified questions. International breaks are usually boring but it also served as means of rest to players, definitely not the key ones because they played a major role at both club and country level of football.

I am not part of the international break because it kills the fun on the club matches. Imagine, weekend is when I do relax and enjoy the club side matches, but today has been very boring for me, because I didn't have the passion for international Friendly's. As I am typing the post, England VS Brazil is on but I lost interest on the game.

I rarely watch international matches but this time I enjoyed it even though there were no league matches, I know many people will be bored because the league breaks in two weeks even they will be bored for two weeks because they are used to league matches on weekends.

Because of the frequent international breaks I don't care, this has been the rule for a long time so when you lack interest in international matches then wait until the league rolls around and enjoy betting again with your favorite team. Cheesy

Completely agreed about this all because its also important as many players having dream playing for their national team and these matches are important which create good depth and also give experience to players even as mentioned too many peoples not like these international friendlies but no one can stop them with as we are heading for the Euro 2024, and then we will have soccer world cup 2026 things are needed for the all countries to prepare their best combinations and also have their youngsters on international platform which will help them for having good things for the big events.
League matches are completely different things even we have big community which are addicted with these leagues and matches, but they have to keep calm and stay positive for the all things which are happening around them.
