The 32 -team, month-long Club World Cup tournament kicks off Saturday .

The tournament adds to what is already an overcrowded calendar and threatens to dilute quality of the game.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino wants credit, and cash, and he doesn't really care about the long-term consequences.

Christian Pulisic has played in 118 games for club and country since signing with Milan .

If the choice for their disposable income is between next year ’s World Cup and a second -tier tournament that is not new, just revamped, and is being played in many of the same cities as the World Cup , that’s not really a choice at all. “Football is such an important sport all over the world,” Infantino said Tuesday . Be nice if he and FIFA treated it that way, rather than a means of feeding their own egos and bank accounts. Follow USA TODAY Sports columnist Nancy Armour on social media @nrarmour..
