🚨🗣️New: Zlatan Ibrahimovic on Vinicius Junior refusing the mandatory halftime interview with FIFA at the World Cup:

“People are shocked that Vinícius walked away from a halftime interview. I am shocked that anyone thinks he should have stopped in the first place.

Halftime is not a television studio. Halftime is not a podcast. Halftime is not a red carpet. Halftime is the heartbeat of a football match.

For 45 minutes, players are warriors in a storm. They run, they fight, they suffer, they bleed. Then they get 15 precious minutes to recover, to breathe, to listen, to think. And FIFA wants to spend part of that time chasing soundbites? That is like pulling a Formula 1 driver out of his car during a pit stop and asking him how the race is going.

And FIFA’s idea is to shove a microphone in the player’s face and ask, ‘How do you feel?’

How do you think he feels? He’s exhausted.

This is modern football’s biggest disease. Everything is content. Everything is sponsorship. Everything is television. The match hasn’t even finished and they’re already trying to manufacture headlines.

They tell us they care about player welfare. Really? Then why are players playing more games than ever? Why are tournaments expanding? Why are injuries increasing? And now they want halftime interviews too? The hypocrisy is unbelievable.

Halftime is sacred. It belongs to the players and the coaches. That’s where games are won. That’s where tactics change. That’s where injuries get treated. That’s where leaders speak. It is not a media circus.

And don’t tell me this is for the fans. Fans want better football, not a tired player giving a robotic 20-second answer because somebody sold another broadcast package.

Vinícius understood that. He chose football over public relations.

The funniest part? They threaten him with a fine. A fine. As if that changes the principle. If I were there, I’d pay it too. Because some things are worth more than money.

If FIFA really had their way, they’d put microphones in the dressing room and call it innovation.

Football should come first. Not content. Not commercials. Not corporate greed.

For once, a player pushed back. And that’s exactly why so many people are angry.”

🚨 This is now the SIXTH time energy bills have gone up under Labour.

Anyone else remember all the promises about bills coming down by £300?

Liars.

What is the point of having a price cap if they keep on increasing it every few months?

Congrats @Arsenal The best team won it this season. 👏🏻

“It’s a circus act!” 😡

Roy had plenty to say about Bruno Fernandes’ assist record on the latest episode of Stick to Football… 🗣️

[Britsky @TBrit90]

Its so depressing just watching us drive off a cliff. Defence, energy, economy, welfare, immigration, foreign policy, everything.

[Anfield Fix @AnfieIdFix]

For the past year Slot has moaned about how PL teams don't want to play football and always references PSG as an example of a team which plays football "the right way". Now he has the chance to play PSG again and he comes out with a back 5, parks the bus and plays like Tony Pulis

Working families pay more council tax, more income tax, higher energy bills — all from Monday.

The reward goes to households where nobody works.

This is not a government.

It’s a redistribution machine that punishes effort and subsidises inactivity.

[Jen k 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @Jenny_1884]

Just remember whilst we are all struggling to pay our bills because of our politicians, they have given themselves a £3,300 payrise to help them with the cost of living whilst also claiming expenses & also given 6.2% for people claiming benefits.

Now try telling me they care about the hardworking people of this country who have to get out of bed every morning to pay for all this whilst getting nothing back in return.

You couldn’t despise this government enough.

🎙Wayne Rooney says he doesn’t understand the criticism of Arsenal and admits he enjoys watching the Gunners.....

🗣 ‘I’ve heard a lot of people talking about Arsenal and the way they’re playing but I think they’ve been brilliant.

‘Football is played in different ways. Man City have had spells when they were absolutely incredible, the same for my Man United team

But Arsenal have got a good mix, they’ve got different players who score goals, they’re hard to play against, they keep clean sheets. I actually enjoy watching them play.

‘The set-pieces are part of football – why would you not use it? They put bodies in the box, if teams aren’t clever enough or haven’t got the players to deal with it, why wouldn’t Arsenal continue to do that?

‘I would be doing it even more if I was Mikel Arteta. It’s part of the game and I love it – they don’t have to change anything.

‘They maybe haven’t scored as many goals from open play as they would like but they’ve made up for it in other ways.

‘The last league title we won, we wasn’t great as a team, but nobody is talking about that now. I don’t think Arsenal have been as bad as people are saying, I really don’t.

‘I’m not saying this because I like Arsenal, I’m saying this because I think the criticism they’re received is very unfair.’

Insult to British people. 40k is a house deposit for most people and we’re giving it away to make people leave the country who have no right to be here in the first place🤣

Man enforced the back pass law to be implemented all on his own 😂😂😂😂

[GoonerTalk @GoonerTaIk]

Guehi on Salah, and Lacroix on Cunha.

The fouls are in basically identical areas of the pitch. The nearest covering defender is in basically the same position for both. Yet one is “denial of a clear goalscoring opportunity” and a red card, but the other isn’t???

So it’s ok for this but if I was to walk through the street with a huge St George’s flag I’m racist 🤔

If Keir Starmer is too afraid to stand up to Iran, for fear of losing the Muslim vote

Then we are truly finished as a country.

This is why they do it.

They need to be able to push a title race, giving Leeds a penalty doesn’t help them sell the TV rights.
