You hate Iniesta and Zidane is your all time favorite player. :D

I have nothing against Iniesta at all, I think he's the most tolerable for me in the barca team. And with Spain he is quite likeable but to compare him with Zidane (who in my opinion the best player to ever touch a ball) is quite a stretch.

You see, @DelPiero84?

This is similar to how you were supposed to reply.

it's really appropriate that you follow your statement about zidane being the best ever with 'quite a stretch', heck even platini was better

Most of the criticisms are accusations of corruption, bribery, poor human rights record etc. Brazil is infinitely worse in every respect and doesnt exactly have a european weather and Russia too is as corrupt as any place can get. I think that racism has a long way to go in these criticisms. People feel Qatar didnt earn the right to host a world cup since its a small nation with no football history and most importantly built out of Arab Oil.

If Brazil was as hot as Qatar the criticisms would still be very few. People are getting shot on the street and tons of people are on strike but its okay because brazil is a football nation. If any world cup should be cancelled or rescheduled it is this one.

    This reminds me of the days of Usenet where people created newsgroups as if they were shrines to their pet topics that few others saw as different or separate enough from the existing discussions. CLOSING & MERGING

    Nobody wants to have to decide between 2-3 threads where to post something about Ghana.
