Episode 2521: Messi, Morals And Just What Was That All About?
Ken is home from Qatar and eager to podcast about his beloved football. Welcome back Ken, welcome back Thursday football shows.
Miguel Delaney and Jonathan Wilson join us for a last look back at Qatar 2022. By getting so excited over the final, have we helped Qatar finish the job they began in 2010? To what degree has the success of the tournament strengthened the position of FIFA and Gianni Infantino? Is Emiliano Martinez OK? What are the impressions they will remember from their time in Qatar? And how did Jonathan feel watching the dream final from London.
And why does Messi seem to escape criticism for his own business dealings?
