That’s the question I’ve been asking myself these past few days.
What would Maradona say about the way FIFA has handled itself?
Here are his exact words on Sepp Blatter’s FIFA – the FIFA that brought us this Qatar fiasco:
In the last few decades, football has changed – and not for the better. Once, it was a sport you could be proud of, a sport that united the world. But Fifa, its governing body, has turned into a playground for the corrupt.
Most football fans can predict what I am about to say next: Under Sepp Blatter, Fifa has become a disgrace and a painful embarrassment to those of us who care about football deeply.
And what would Maradona say about the sell-out David Beckham – a washed up mediocre star who made more money off the field than on it. Have you no soul, David?
