You realize these will most likely be the first games under the new manager, right?

They don't need to schedule these teams to drum up interest under a new manager. The interest will already be there.

exactly it wont tell us much

a bunch of meaningless friendlies after the world cup when most countries play their B/C squad.

Most casual American soccer fans don't even know who the manager is. They know who Brazil is though.

They may not know who it is, but they'll know we have a new one.

Seems to me like they are just trying to make some money since they'll miss out on so much this year from the WC.

Friendlies against lesser nations can sometimes be half empty. And the TV partners may be putting some pressure on better friendlies.

I'd rather a new coach start out with some games he can tinker with and build some confidence from.

Exactly

These matches won’t stir up much public interest esp is the likes of Neymar and Messi won’t be playing
