@olimould: Infantino is showing exactly what Marx meant about the limits of capital #EduTok #football #marxism #capitalism #fyp

Welshman79 :

Isn't FIFA supposed to be non profit?

Annoying Fly Studio :

I find it quite confusing when leagues have names of brands, stadiums too but less so.. If instead of olympics is the Amazon games and you have Disney cup instead of the world cup but mind you Amazon only bought Summer, winter is obviously bought by nestle who chose to call it the milky bar and then there's the European football league that confusingly was bought by Spalding where the rugby one was bought by a guy called Wimbledon and that really confused me.. basketball is now Microsoft..

Moxey :

Greg’s is open

Matt :

Not that this is the main issue but the disconnect is wild, the nations league, more international friendlies, no-one cares, the World Cup is exciting BECAUSE it’s not every year

lillianslater7 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 :

Grear argument for following lower league football - until they eventually ruin that!

EzAndy of Planet Earth :

This year was a test to see if this new model would be accepted, the massive ticket prices, the ad breaks

Christy McLaughlin :

America is toxic

kpod :

Another word for this 'mechanism of capitalism' is greed.

The Patient Socialist :

It's not his to sell. Uefa will boycott and something new will emerge. Infantino has shit the bed.

benjamin.frost :

To be fair, it doesn’t help that Gibraltar have the same voting weight in FIFA as Germany (and there are 150 relative Gibraltars, all of whom are susceptible to a $20m bung to vote for anything). One things for certain - if FIFA sell the World Cup, why would clubs provide their players for free to play in it?

Demon :

The majority nations, should get together and create a new world cup. Refresh the whole thing. Most nations would jump on board pretty quickly, leaving the other no real option but to follow suit

Bill Hammer :

But the faster football implodes & collapses in on itself then the quicker we get footy back. We will always play football we won’t always pay a week’s salary to watch a game

Red 🇬🇧 :

There has always been that begrudging acceptance of FiFAs corrupt activities, however I honestly believe the red card reversal decision was cataclysmically bad for FIFAs reputation among football loving fans. Coupled with hydration breaks, everyone could see which direction FIFA want the beloved game to go.

20thcenturymax :

I honestly think this is a step too far and it's going to back fire.

Lisa Jane 💋💄 :

my daughter would hold her breath while playing ecco the dolphin 😬 America and fifa have fucked up the world Cup! sickening!

Edwin :

useri021sydz4b :

Echo the dolphin. Nice.

The Patient Socialist :

An another unrelated note, I just completed Streets Of Rage II on the Mega Drive, with my 15yr old daughter.

PapaChutney :

There will be prize money in the Olympics before long

Tim :

same Lex Luthor figure bragging its gonna break the $9.8m expected income by almost a 1/3 wants more? Starting to make Blatter look legit

PapaChutney :

Money in football is vulgar , can’t stand it , or the game to be fair . I only watched it every 4 years. Won’t bother if this is the way forward

Sage :

they’re a non profit as well 💔

chipstery50 :

It will put the World Cup behind a paywall. I will not pay for it they can piss off

Paula dbly :

also, this company which Infantino is setting up, so the kushners et al can buy ownership in fifa, infantino himself has a 30% share in

Paddy Honan :

Capitalism is the economic version of narcissism. No boundaries are acceptable to it.
