I do not feel that I have a mandate from the entire world of football - the fans, the players, the clubs, the people who live, breathe and love football.

The World Cup must remain the number one competition, because it is our only source of money and, with that money, we can develop football in the whole world.

We shall wonder if one day our game is played on another planet? Why not? Then we will have not only a World Cup we will have inter-planetary competitions.

It is very important that football can see beyond religion but FIFA does not just ignore its impact.

I can understand that people are not happy, but they should not use football to make their demands heard

We cannot allow the reputation of football and FIFA to be dragged through the mud any longer.

There is no systematic corruption in FIFA. That is nonsense. We are financially clean and clear.
