Does Football have a problem? Each week we will discuss the biggest issues and pressing points impacting the Beautiful Game in a new series starring Craig Beazley and Mani Thangadurai.Has football lost its soul?In this explosive discussion, Craig and Mani ask whether the biggest problem facing the world's game isn't VAR, fixture congestion or billionaire owners... but FIFA itself.From Gianni Infantino's growing influence over world football to his increasingly visible relationship with Donald Trump, we examine why many fans, journalists and football figures believe FIFA is becoming more concerned with power, politics and profit than protecting the sport.We discuss:⚽ Gianni Infantino's leadership of FIFA⚽ FIFA's ever-expanding tournaments and commercial ambitions⚽ Why critics accuse FIFA of greed and hypocrisy⚽ The long shadow of corruption allegations that have damaged FIFA's reputation over many years⚽ The political optics surrounding Infantino's relationship with Donald Trump⚽ Why UEFA has publicly warned about fixture congestion and the growing international calendar⚽ Whether football is becoming a business first and a sport second⚽ Why supporters—not governing bodies—remain the true custodians of the gameFootball belongs to the fans. It was built by communities, sustained by supporters and made great by the people in the stands—not by executives chasing ever-larger revenues. As more competitions are added and more money is extracted from clubs, broadcasters and supporters, many are asking one simple question:Who is football really for anymore?Craig and Mani debate whether meaningful change can only happen if clubs, players, confederations and supporters push back against FIFA's increasing control over the global game.Do you think FIFA is taking football in the right direction, or has the balance between sporting integrity and commercial ambition been lost?👇 Let us know your thoughts in the comments.🍒 UTCIAD has been nominated as the Best Club Content Creator for the Premier League in the up and coming Football Content Awards!

England's World Cup dream is over after surrendering a 1-0 lead against Argentina in the semi-final, and there are serious questions to answer.In this video, Craig gives his reaction from an England perspective as we discuss whether Thomas Tuchel's tactical decisions ultimately cost England a place in the World Cup Final and what the result could mean for his future as England manager.We also examine the controversy surrounding Argentina's unveiling of a flag referencing the Falkland Islands, why many have criticised it as unnecessary and disrespectful, and why some believe it showed a lack of respect not only towards England but also towards the Argentine people, who deserved to see the focus remain on football.Despite England's heartbreak, we're wishing Spain the very best of luck in the World Cup Final.¡Vamos, España! (Let's Go, Spain!) 🇪🇸What do you think?Did Tuchel get his tactics wrong?Should Tuchel remain England manager?What did you make of the Falklands flag controversy?Who are you backing in the World Cup Final?Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.🍒 UTCIAD - a nominee for the Best Club Content Creator for the Premier League in the Football Content Awards!
