I hope they do. It's ridiculous how many games they play for cash grab tournaments and friendlies.
Last year in MLS, LAFC had the chance to win 6 trophies in one season. They didn't and ended up losing in the final of 3 cups, which really sucked, but the fact they could have won that many trophies in one season is kind of dumb.... and they weren't even in the club world cup! At some point, there just isn't any granularity between why one comp is different from another. And you could absolutely tell how tired the players were by the middle of the season. It definitely affected how well they performed in the regular season games.
