Okay so as im playing the community shield on fifa and im wonderinger. Why do a lot of people (fans, pundits) write off the community shield as a meaningless trophy or a just a friendly? I mean it the English Supercup, winner of the league vs winner of the domestic cup. Every other league seems to care about Supercups and theres also the important European Supercup.

    I think it’s only ever remotely interesting if it’s actually winner of the cup vs winner of the league

    When a team can win that without winning a proper trophy, then yeah it’s tinpot. If the same team wins both then they should have last year’s winner or something

    Any one off game can’t really be anything more than a glorified exhibition in my eyes, when the pool of potential winners is 2 sometimes 1 then yeah bit pointless.
