Summary
On this week's show I'm joined by Philippe Auclair to discuss FIFA and some of the wider issues that are affecting football right now – from internationals, World Cups, nation state finances and vested interests who are shaping the game for financial and commercial interests rather than sporting ones. Then we move on to Arsenal to talk about our summer plans, bringing through young players, Unai Emery, our budget, who is going to spend the budget, Philippe provides some insight into some of the French players we've been linked with this summer, and much more.
