Why didn't he become the head of FIFA instead of the bald gay Swiss guy?
>>154415866He was on trial for corruption not long ago
>>154415866
>>154415879Had not been for the corruption would Platini make a better FIFA president than Infantino?
>>154415935I doubt anyone could top Infantino's obsequious slobbering around the vicinity of Trumps arsehole. That bald cunt is an embarrassment to himself. Platini would have at least shown some self-respect.
>>154415866He wasn’t corrupt enough. That doesn’t mean he wasn’t corrupt as fuck, of course
>>154415866Infantino snitched on him so he could run for president instead of Platini.
>>154415922> Can clearly see Platini's shirt also says No Drugs but in French
>>154416173this is why no-one lets frogs be President.
>>154415866because he was against change. and being against change doesn't generate enough money so blatter and infantino framed him. reminder that platini got cleared not once but twice. he really got set up, but it's his fault, he was too naive.
>>154416373Blatter 'framed' Platini by dropping near $2m into his bank account, ten years after Platini last worked for FIFA?orly?
>>154416431yes because it was shady and was used as potention corruption, which isn't. but that was enough to remove him from the fifa election, and that put infantino, blatter's protégé in charge of fifa.
>>154416466oh, I'm not denying that $2m seeing daylight was enough to remove Platini form the election, but you are confusing cause and effect here. That payment not only fails the smell test, it stinks like Marseilles in a heatwave. Neither of them could explain this cash even halfway plausibly and, if it walks like a duck.. Platini removed himself from the election by being up to his lying neck in corruption and getting caught, as did Blatter.
>>154416431Infantino was himself investigated by the Swiss judiciary for improper approaches to the Swiss prosecutors. Interfering with the course of justice in most countries carries a custodial sentence. Platini has always maintained that there was a conspiracy against him and that he suspected that it was Infantino who reported the payment to the Swiss authorities whose investigation inevitably blocked his election.

Platini was a level-headed guy who tried to actually improve the system. The Ron Paul of European football. Such people never win in politics because people are bootlickers and despicable, especially football fans.
>>154416602>The Ron Paul of European footballThat sounds based.
>>154416602Name some improvements he tried to implement
>>154416637He would have continued where Blatter left off. That's a massive improvement on Infantino's track record.
>>154416637>financial caps for the elite teams>financial redistribution of CL and EL money>home grown player quotas>mix up of seeding systems (champions path and league path to CL)
Platini was as good as Zidane
>>154422661He was actually better and I love Zidane.
Platini is UEFA, not FIFA. So of course he's not going to take charge of FIFA.
