🚨🗣️New: Thierry Henry reacts to the USA vs Paraguay stoppage for TV commercials:

“I’ve spent my entire life in this beautiful game — as a player at the highest level, as a fan, and now as someone who analyses it every week — and what unfolded during that USA versus Paraguay match left me deeply frustrated. The fourth official standing there on the touchline, arm raised high, instructing the referee to hold the restart… not for any injury, not for tactical reasons, and not even primarily for player hydration in that scorching heat. No. It was because the broadcast team hadn’t finished airing all their commercials. That’s not football. That’s a television show pretending to be a World Cup match.

The beautiful game is being strangled by greed. Players are out there in the heat, ready to restart, momentum building like a storm about to break — and we pause everything so the sponsors can cash in. It’s like stopping a symphony mid-crescendo because the advertisers want their jingle heard. Football didn’t conquer the world by turning into American sports with endless timeouts and ad breaks. We had rhythm, flow, emotion that flowed like a river. Now? It’s dammed up for dollars.

This isn’t about hydration or player welfare anymore — it’s a slippery slope where the soul of the game is sold piece by piece. Fans deserve better. Players deserve better. The referee on that pitch looked like a puppet on strings controlled from some broadcast truck. Enough is enough. We need to protect what made this sport the greatest on Earth before it disappears completely.”

The World Cup should be football’s cathedral. Instead, we’re turning it into a shopping mall with a pitch in the middle.

And here’s the question nobody wants to answer: if the fourth official is waiting for commercials, then who is really running the game? FIFA? The referee? Or the broadcasters?

Because the moment football starts asking advertisers for permission before asking the players, you’ve crossed a line.

The World Cup is supposed to be the showcase of football. Not the showcase of who paid the most for airtime.”

@WhatTheForkAVFC He has one more year left on his contract

You're almost right....the beautiful game belongs to the fans especially those who part with their hard earned cash to go to games. As the legendary Jock Stein said "football is nothing without fans"

🚨 VINI JR JUST TOLD FIFA: “WE’LL PAY THE FINE — BUT NOBODY FROM US IS DOING HALF-TIME INTERVIEWS.”

During Brazil’s World Cup match, Vinícius refused the mandatory tunnel interview.

Reporter: “You’ll get a huge fine for this.”

Vini: “We’ll pay. But nobody is coming to the mic.”

This isn’t arrogance. It’s players finally saying enough to FIFA’s corporate circus.

Half-time should be for tactics, water, recovery — not feeding the broadcast machine while the game gets sliced up for ads (sound familiar with those forced “welfare” breaks?).

FIFA under Infantino has turned football into a product. Mandatory everything. Player focus as an afterthought. Suits in Zurich cashing in.

Brazil and Vini just pushed back. Raw. Direct. No bowing to the machine.

The beautiful game belongs to the players on the pitch — not boardrooms selling every second.

Who else is done with this?

@TheCinesthetic According to his lifelong friend Michael Caine, Sean Connery stepped in to help some women who were being harassed by four men in a London nightclub. He effortlessly flattened all four men while Caine stood on the sidelines holding his friend's coat.

More believeable now ?

@GE_Tesarkee That's a shame as they look great on you 👌

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

Havertz being a typical Arsenal player and falling over in the box when he could have taken a shot 🙄

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@MichaelLCrick I can't believe all the nonsense being spouted on here....all you have to do is check the departure board which also displays the zone information, then follow the signage....Is that really so difficult?

If you want confusing try Istanbul airport!

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@nkh12349 That's so very true

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@Raven666xxx That's a stunning building and a great montage 👌

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@GE_Tesarkee @Nicola_Tesarkee I wouldn't argue with that...in fact it's hard to imagine a hotter couple than you two 🔥🔥👌

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@WhatTheForkAVFC Got tbh hopefully he won't be for much longer

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@WhatTheForkAVFC They would have locked you up ! 🤣🤣🤣

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@nkh12349 Good plan, just enjoying my second cup ☕️😊....hope you have a great day

[Gezza69🦁 @Gezza691]

@GE_Tesarkee @Nicola_Tesarkee Yeah it's hard to understand why more of the books weren't made into films, especially given how much the film industry loves a franchise
