Not the alternative World Cup we deserved, but the alternative World Cup we needed
I'd be interested in watching this world cup!
@@TomFM me too!
World cup of losers. Where 32teams will compete. 8 groups and the best two gets elimated. Then playoffs where the loosers will advance to next round.
@@dmlvgaming7876 wouldnât everyone try to lose then đ
How about a world cup with the 32 teams that came closest to qualifying but ultimately didnt
Already in the video schedule!
good idea wonder how New Zealand will get on
@@TomFM I can make a list (I did the same for 2018 simulation, but on another chanel lol)
I think we can keep Qatar as host and change 31 other nations.
AFC: UAE, Iraq, Syria, Oman, China
CAF: Egypt, Algeria, Nigeria, DR Congo, Mali
CONCACAF: Panama, Jamaica, El Salvador
OFC: New Zealand
CONMEBOL: Peru, Colombia, Chile, Paraguay
UEFA: Ireland, Greece, Sweden, Italy, Ukraine, Czechia, Scotland, Turkey, Norway, Slovakia, Albania, North Macedonia.
And 1 more place I cannot decide who put there: N. Ireland, Israel, Austria, maybe Finland. Maybe pick another set of 13 countries :)
I am not insist to make list exactly like that, that is just my suggestion.
Oh so World Cup Europa League edition? Good idea thoe
@@oleksandrsuglobov8563 Solomon Islands should be there
Kiribati is pronounced âKiribassâ as itâs how the âtiâ sound in their language is said⊠I believe itâs because they donât use the letter âsâ in the language. But youâll have to check that. But yeah⊠just a heads up for next time
Curacao-Aruba is like England-ScotlandâŠthey both share a lot of common history, but Curacao is the big brother sizewise and footballwise whereas Aruba has the most tourists and therefore probably the better economy. But that game would be a real tight one cause theyâre actually real life rivals.
Curaçao and Aruba would be a giant match in real life, since both islands are next to each other and feel some rivalry with each other.
I would pay good money to see that match
Similar to this in a way, but nations unrecognised by FIFA. CONIFA has ran a few 'world cups' and it would be good to see if anyone out there had created a database with nations such as: Cornwall, Chagos, Tamil, Koreans in Japan, Sardinia, Kuskatan, Hawai'i and the rest. It would be fun to play with these nations and see if you could actually get a nation to be competitive with official FIFA national teams or whether you max out around the likes of the Virgin Islands and San Marino (given any decent player would surely represent a recognised national team)
It would be such a cool idea to do, but sadly those nations recognised by CONIFA aren't in Football manager, unless we went to an extraordinarily length to make a full database
Tongan here, in real life we probably wouldn't even make it out of the group đ . Thanks for giving us the shout out though đčđŽ
Honestly I really would've thought Curucao would win as well.
I expected either Curaçao or the Faroe Islands to win it as well, it was a big surprise and to be fair both of them were FM'd in the semis. Klaemint Olsen is actually a decent player, so I'm not surprised he was the top scorer. He has scored over 220 goals for NSĂ RunavĂk in real life and in FM he usually carries them during the first season, maybe two if some club from Denmark or the likes doesn't poach him, and then they fall off once he retires.
Phwaar what a goalscoring record! Loved it when they both got knocked out in the semi finals, I was more excited making this video than any other in the past few months đ
Fun fact: KlĂŠmint Olsen is also the janitor in the school in RunavĂkđ
Also funny how a Dutch overseas territory loses in the final just to keep the tradition going.
đ€Ł
Absolutely love stuff like this. Could run this a few times and be fascinated by it every time. I think the obvious next one would be to do the bottem 32 countries based on fifa rank. Also shoutout to Mattia Stefanelli from San Marino who scored 4 goals in 4 sub appearances. So close to being the top scorer.
I've got a plan to do those bottom teams, although it would be relatively similar actually
Love that the World Cup in this reality is hosted in Australia.
We've actually run several competitions at the same time and they all need different host nations. I believe they're chosen at random from the existing pool of World Cup host nations in the game, but other hosts of competitions include England, France and Chile!
7:55 the RWB for Curacao ran 17.2km đ€Ż
Curaçao is still an overseas territory which is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. So anyone who is born on curaçao automatically gains Dutch citizenship, that's why :P
It should also be the same with Aruba and Sint Maarten ;)
KlĂŠmint Olsen became the first player to score against Denmark in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers, in the ninth game of qualification. Quality striker.
Joel Felix is a regular starter for Silkeborg, who are currently 4th in the Danish Superliga. He hasn't declared for Saint Lucia in real life, and has represented Denmark at U19 level. Maybe he'll declare for Saint Lucia at some point.
Mexico and USA: weâre gonna win the world cup someday
St. Lucia: hold my mojito
Need the bloodline playing for samoa lol
In the end, I knew St Lucia was going to win because Aruba was in group F and that group curse is absolutely real
Kinda late but Curacao was the Netherland Antilles. The island chain kinda broke up as some wanted closer ties to the Netherlands I think. Normally "new" nations get bigger like East Germany merging with West Germany. They actually got smaller.
How about the countries with biggest populations who have never qualified? India, Indonesia, Malaysia etc?
Can you do the 32 lowest ranked nations on the database
This could actually be a thing tbf. It would be so much fun and could actually help these micro states.
In FM22 I manage Stranraer and signed a defensive midfielder called Rohan Ince who keeps getting international call-ups for Montserrat. I'm surprised not to see them represented!
I am shocked that Curaçao didnt win. They do quite well in my saves and even qualified for the actual World Cup sometimes
Even in real life in CONCACAF they are not to be taken lightly. Very good team for such a little island.
They've defeated India 3 -1 irl XD
Idea, all the worst teams that could all have technically qualified. I.e. a World Cup in which all the qualification spots are filled with teams who wouldnât get through their qualifiers, but who technically all could. So it would be the same amount of uefa teams as normal, just the ones that finished bottom of their groups. Instead of AFC giants like Australia and Japan, it would be terrible Asian teams like Bhutan and Sri Lanka. Not necessarily small populations, just really bad teams
Can tell Aruba has Dutch roots by bottling it when it matters most. Typical... XD
And curaçao same in the final
You could try a Commonwealth World Cup with all of the commonwealth nations
I realy love this. I suggest doing one but with every team that has qualified for a WC, but have missed the previous 3 World Cups (Qatar, Russia, and Brazil). I made the calculation and it gives exactly 32 teams that haven't qualified since 2010.
Curaçao is still part of the kingdom of the Netherlands, but it is an autonomous country in the kingdom. The same for Aruba.
the faroe islands beat austria in their first competitive match, an upset for the history books not talked about much
How about a world cup that has the best 32 countries in FIFA rankings who have never qualified
What would be cool is a "Reject World Cup" with the best teams to have not qualified for Qatar (Sweden, Italy, Nigeria.etc)
Really enjoyed this idea and congratulations to St. Lucia! I'd love to see a re-run but giving the lowest ranked team a perfect player to see if they could carry them to the final. đ€
Differences at this level are so small compared to what a perfect player will give a team, it would be hugely surprising if they don't win it with ease.
Devastated, picked Aruba at the start as I went on my honeymoon there. Didnât expect the final ha
Love this. What were the attendances like? Did you get like 2x the entire population of an island nation in the stadium?
a few considerations:
-Sint Maarten, Saint Martin, Kiribati, Tuvalu, Northern Mariana and Micronesia are not members of FIFA, so they cannot qualify for a WC, although they participate in their regions' competitions.
+Montserrat, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Iceland (xd), Bahamas, Maldives are part of FIFA and could have been elegible instead
my prediction:
A: SMR BER VIR KIR. yeah, almost nailed it
B: CUW LIE ATG SMN. nailed it
C: FRO GRN DMA AIA. almost nailed it
D: GIB GUM SXM FSM. wow Gibraltar what happened
E: LCA CAY VGB NMI. nailed it
F: ARU ASA TNG TUV. well, got the leader
G: VIN STP SEY TCA. Vincent disappointing,
H: AND SKN COK SAM. nailed it
1/8
SMRBER. yeah, Curaçao
FRO>GUM. Feroe, yeah
GIB>GRN. Grenada is better than Guam, so yeah
LCA>ASA. St LucĂa, yeah
ARU>CAY. Aruba, yeah
VINSTP. Andorra, yeah. zero surprises
1/4
LiechtensteinGibraltar. yeah, Curaçao
St LucĂaAndorra. yo wtf
Andorra>St Kitts Nevis
Final
Feroe
I searched the whole comment section to see if anyone mentioned Montserrat where I'm from.. you sir have made my day đ„°đ„°
@@saintsnaps anything interesting info about Montserrat? I genuinely didn't know about its existence prior to this day xd
@@ChesterRGC type "the other final" into CZcams.. theirs a really good documentary on us playing Bhutan who at the time was ranked second to last while we were ranked last place.. it happened in 2002 world cup final so while Germany and Brazil 2 top teams played we played Bhutan which at the time was the 2 bottom teams in "the other final" lol.. gives alot of information about the volcanic eruption that destroyed half the island and other cool info.. happy to say latest rankings we are currently 179 and climbing đ„°đ„°
Love this idea for a video, keep it up Tom!!
Glad you enjoyed, thank you!
Bit late to this one but very interesting! Great idea! Editor question......how do you go about editing the teams for your different World Cup experiments?
Curaçao is still part of the Netherlands which is why all their players are also Dutch
A world cup without the top 32 ranked teams would be interesting to watch
Enjoyed that one. Nice one Tom.
This was neat Tom. Defo wanna see more of this đ.
Ironically the Sao Tomé pronunciation was ok, but Some of the others were rough, particularly Grenada. Gren-ah-da is in Spain, the Caribbean nation is Gren-A-da
And North Marina (how he pronounced it) and Kiribati. It should have been North Mari-ah-na and Kiri-bas.
@@DHW3008 St Kitts and N-ee-vis too
What mod did you download to get the official badges instead of the flags? Love the video btw!
Now do one with the 32 WORST teams in the world
They already have Wales in the real world cup lol.
Thank you for the video: really interesting. How about a World Cup where all the players can only come from the countries' domestic leagues?
A World Cup but players can only play if they play on their domestic leagues would we good. Might affect domestic competitions as well
Joel Felix is pretty good player in Denmark
well, Curacao still belongs to the Netherlands officially, but maybe if they win the World Cup then they'll have a rethink
You should try make a british empire league and try get as many decisions. Would love too see how that last after 100 years
World cup with 32 teams that got out earliest in qualifying or 32 lowest ranked teams
i think FIFA need to make a world cup for the small countries. it should be interesting
They should make this WC happen IRL instead of the Qatar one... I would rather watch this one.
great idea, this was really cool
Keep it up . We love these
Link down in the description eh! haha all good! amazing work!
Group A's results reminded me of the Group 2 of the 1974 World Cup where everyone ended up with a draw against each other, and the two teams that qualified for the second round where the ones that scored more against Zaire.
Do 32 Lowest ranked nations
Having seen the name of the video, I was hoping this would shine a light on secretly half decent Solomon Islands (prob better than Curacao/Faroe Islands) then I watched it and they weren't small enough to be in. Fair enough
Fun fact there is an official world cup for non recog ized countries, like the dpr, lpr, transnistria, Somaliland and so on
Also, the host country is Australia so you may expect some stadiums actually used by AFL and NRL teams (rugby and Australian football if you don't know)
I really enjoyed this one.
I'm sure it's in the works but how about the 32 lowest rank teams?
I want you to return to Aberdeen. See how things have changed over the years.
Im thinking of purchasing FM, are all those teams playable in base game or you are using a mod?
Can you do one where you unite countries. So the nordic countries are considered one, the baltic states, british iles etc.
As someone who is from and lives in the Faroe Islands we better win this world cup... COME ON YOU BOYS!!!! Joan Simun Edmundsen is about to carry us with his 5consistency
LETS GOOOO YOU PUT US AS FAVOURITES
YOOO THIS IS SCRIPTED.... WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??? WE'RE LOSING TO FUCKING ST LUCIA
Maltabeing smaller than lichtenstein:am i joke to you
Had to root for Aruba because I visited there once. Someone needs to slide on Saint Lucia
You said São Tomé and principe right and curaçao was a Dutch colony. Good job!
do a world cup but only players that are in 2nd tier leagues or below can play
Alternate World Cup ideas:
- English speaking countries only World Cup
- French speaking countries only World Cup
- Highest ranked countries that havenât played in the World Cup
- World Cup with the following spots:
Africa: 5
Asia: 5
Europe: 11
North America: 5
South America: 4
Oceanica: 2
Do a experiment with the biggest team that didnât qualify
How about a World Cup with the 32 heist ranked teams who have never qualified for one
Seychelles and Sao Tome being in the same group should not be possible, actually. They're both African MAs.
Iâm sad that the Solomon Islands didnât make it needed to see my wonder kid leao win
How about the Islands World Cup, where all teams must be from island nations, thereby making Ireland the only viable British Isles based team, because the UK is the islands but multiple countries exist on the island, so the rule would be the country has to be the island.
What about Northern Ireland?
hahahaha I can just imagine the attendances in the 100k+ MCG. It would be busier on non-match days when the groundsmen are preparing cricket pitches.
St. Lucia beat San Marino on a two-legged match IRL this week 1-1/1-0, so don't underestimate them.
Everyone can beat san marino
Haven't won a game since 2004
Oh my god, I need that World Cup editor file, is it available for download?? Thanks!!
Donât mind me just binging all these WC simulation videos
i wish you showed the highlights of the final. couldv been interesting
nice one tom
What happens if you boost all the Oceanic countries?
Saw the title wonder if Molassia would make it
A WC with teams that never won it
Strange but intriguing experiment
Where's Montserrat!?? Population like 5,000 and ranked 179 by FIFA!
What are you using to make this video?
Curaçao Vs Aruba, Massive Dutch Antilles derby
Which program you use to simulate this
Cacao and the thumbnail they almost got to the final stage of concacaf qualifying World Cup and my favourite team from Australia
St Lucia has my fav flag in world so I wanted them to win so Iâm super happy
No one gonna question why the semi-final of the world cup was held at a cricket ground?
What did you use to make this video?
what skin is this were you can see CA an PA in the squad view? 2:16
what a pity not to see Malta in this - Malta is one of the smallest countries in the world - yes in population we have 400,000 but I really think we should've been there
How about World Cup with 32 countries where Christmas is not a bank holiday?
which database do you use?
World cup but players can only play in there own nation
The Carribean nations have had good games ... he says as one of them knock out a fellow Carribean nation.
i love that australia hosted this weird world cup
