This is an amazing idea. It could easily solve issues about no European soccer during the summer months. How do you simulate each match?

In all seriousness, I think the Nations League is a good idea to fix teams like Germany, France, Spain etc only play the friendlies they are able to schedule, and that could be a team such as Slovakia, Norway, Ireland etc that aren’t on their level. It allows for teams to play competitive matches on their level. With the sub-confederation idea I have, it allows all teams to play in a competitive atmosphere once or twice yearly, with the sub-confederation tournaments in odd years and the World Cup/Euros in even years, with qualifying for the major tournaments in between. For the winners, especially in COWEF and CEFU, it can boost their ranking by a lot, with England/France/Spain/Portugal/Netherlands/Belgium in COWEF and Germany/Italy/Switzerland/Poland in CEFU.

I simulate the matches on a website called http://www.footysimulator.co.uk/

It definitely would help some of the bigger nations achieve a higher FIFA ranking, while also giving smaller nations a chance to show what they've got in a truly competitive atmosphere. Also, I've heard about FootySimulator and even tried it out myself, but I would not want to pay so much for more stuff than you really need like they want you to do.

I don’t pay for it, I just simulate matchups individually between teams. Every game is played on tournament setting. However, the hosts get to have their matches played at their home stadium to give them a slight boost.

For those of you who are wondering what “Sub-Confederations” are, these are the 2 continental confederations that have them. North America kind of has them, but it has a lot of islands that aren’t that great. South America only has 10 teams, so there are no sub-confederations.

Have you thought about doing competitions for the AFC and CAF Sub-Confederations after finishing the UEFA competitions?

Maybe, but the sub-confederations in Asia have those tournaments, and I think Africa does too.
