But debating the field surface is a moot point because it isn't a big deal to change from an artificial surface to a turf surface with the lead time going into a World Cup
The WWC being a failure is complete bullshit for you to say and had you followed the research of the last three women's world cups, the one in Canada had the least amount of injuries (another myth busted)

You can debate World Cup Finals cities or even if Canada should even be in the picture, but if you think that a MEN'S World Cup will EVER be played on artificial turf instead of natural grass, then I am sorry to say that you are a f**king idiot. Nothing personal, but there is absolutely no situation where FIFA is ever going to sign off on plastic for it's Men's World Cup. Sure they did it for the women, but they could care less about the women. FIFA is a bunch of misogynist dinks and Blatter couldn't even be bothered to show up for the Women's Cup. No the Men's will always be grass, end of discussion.
