Man Utd at the 2000 Club World Championship | #ThrowbackThursday | Planet #FPL

20 Years ago under pressure from the Government and the Football Association Treble Winners Manchester United gave up the opportunity to defend their title as FA Cup Winners & instead compete in the first FIFA Club World Championship in Brazil.

Their tournament was a political & sporting disaster, but back in England the rest of the Premier League couldn't take advantage. Suj & James discuss this, what happened in the FA Cup without United & if a Club World Cup could ever return.
