    JJ Gabriel saga won’t discourage clubs from searching for ever-younger talent (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The story that a child wants to play football in a new place has been leading many sports sections for the past few days. The boy in question is the 15-year-old JJ Gabriel, the new place probably Spain. But the aggravating factor in all this is that he is currently registered with Manchester United, still one of the biggest football clubs in the world. In this context it feels a little icky adding my voice to the noise around this gem of a player but this both is and is not about him. The outrag

    Premier League transfer spending spree has made a dog’s dinner of Europe’s elite (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    You know what’s fun? Tight games of football with a couple of nice goals. Interspersed with plenty of creative passages of play until the team you support wins and you go for a lovely pint. Or, actually, battering the other lot 5-1, who cares about the quality then? You know what’s not? Contracts, painstaking negations to make the rich richer, sub-clauses, arithmetic.

    Do you remember being 11 or so and starting your summer holidays? The endless days of sunshine and no school to come: freedom for so many hours you’d have a chance to be bored by it. I’ve no idea if it actually was sunny for that summer of my life but I know that’s what I see when I reach for the memory. The week before the Premier League is like that.

    Given how fast the story is moving it is likely that between the time of writing and this reaching your eyes even more new elements will have come to light in the saga of Fifa and its president Gianni Infantino. The relentless issuing of different senior figures’ statements seem as though they will eventually overwhelm not just us but also Infantino. It looks as though when the crisis is closed, it will be boiled down to one man versus integrity: Gianni against the world. Infantino summoned his

    No muppets can spoil my World Cup memories but I’m not ready for goodbye (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Are you over the World Cup? Have you seamlessly moved on: packed down the wall chart, dug back into Netflix for that series of the West Wing you were again rewatching, stopped being triggered by a FIFA-branded Coke can? I respect your level-headed attitude. But I’m behind on this. As far as England are concerned, I’m still in the bargaining stage.
