The days on Infantino has left me looking back at the days when Blatter was in charge with misty eyed nostalgia.

Sepp likely had his hand in the till and certainly turned a blind eye to others doing so, but I think there was something in there, even if just a small percentage which he was doing for the good of the game. That's not true any more.

It's now 100% money and power

My only slight interest may be in watching Pascal play in it for Dortmund. But I'm not sure I can stomach that
