I hope that most players will be able to play injury-free by now. It might be a bit much to ask of many players in this way.

Unfortunately this can be difficult. We are entering that phase of the season where problems can arise at any time.
And one of them could be Dybala, who has an injury and it's not yet known if he'll be able to recover in time for the World Cup.

Yep. Injuries are a terrible thing for footballers.
Apart from Dybala, Kalvin Phillips, Marco Reus, and Georginio Wijnaldum may be absent in Qatar.
The French team is also not in good shape, considering that N'Golo Kante, Lucas Hernandez, and Paul Pogba are injured.
It will be new homework for Didier Deschamps to find the right substitute.
But the show must go on. The absence of these star players will not reduce the excitement of the World Cup

Yes, in fact it is as you say, but there is a lot at stake here, for some players the World Cup represents everything, in the case of Dybala who is the one who I think has the worst part of the players you have said, it would be a total shame , because he is like Messi's right hand, since Dybala is in his best form, and the fact that he misses this World Cup could in fact mean that Argentina will have a hard time recovering or making a player of his category enter again, The Argentine league is very good, but considering that they always choose the players who have a lot of action in Europe, it is quite a challenge.

It cannot be denied that football has become a source of profit for a large number of people if not most of them. For instance, if you look at teams like Chelsea or Manchester City, you will see that the method works. As a matter of fact, they are swimming in the pool of Arab money and whatnot. In addition to hosting these matches, Qatar is also using this opportunity to make some money from the event. Nowadays, money and football have become synonymous, and that is quite a sad thing that we have to deal with.

The game of football was once regarded as a symbol of creativity, love, and passion among many people. There is just money nowadays, and it has become a competition of who can generate the most revenue to be the biggest.

It is true that the Arab nations (especially Qatar) is swimming in wads of money. The LNG prices have gone up by 10x-20x in recent times, and Qatar is the no.1 beneficiary. Now they have realized that despite all that money, no one respects them because of their poor human rights record. So events such as world cup provides them with an opportunity to earn "respect". Purchasing premium clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester City was also a part of this plan, and according to them it has worked to a certain extent. And in today's world, people are more money minded and doesn't really care about human rights.

Interesting topic, they are doing this all for respect because I don't think they are looking for respect or anything related with this all because most of the Arab leaders are not well-educated, and they have mind that they can buy every thing with money which is surely working for them in England and France most of the premium clubs are already in their control even few months back they were trying to buy Barcelona but thanks to fans and investors this attempt ends in fail.

But, still they are doing things just because of money as we can watch now they are hosting world soccer club event and then Dubai race they are already bringing things with their money and with this all Western or American have no issue Mohammad bin Salman bought Newcastle United even there were many conflicts related to this person but still he has done because they can do things without going out of their country, so it's all money power.

Well, this is something like what they say where I live: "The dog dances for money" and this is something that we cannot let pass, it is known that soccer is a sport that conveys many vibes and moves many fibers, we know very Well, when we analyze each team in the world, there are the Arabs, who are great investors, yes, with a lot of money, but who can buy anything they want, now they want to do and stand out much more like they do with PSG, which the sheikh is not doing badly, in the near future we could see more Arab owners of football teams because sooner or later money loosens many things.
