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

Fifa cannot sit by and see greed rule the football world. Nor shall we.

Racism is if there are spectators or, outside the field of play, there are movements to discrimination, but, on the field of play, I deny that there is racism.

They (the FAI) have asked, very humbly, can't we be team No 33 at the World Cup? They have asked for that... really!

Footballers are slaves. I know this from the personal experience of being a footballer.

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.
