Should be up to the relevant Govts and authorities to put pressure on Qatar about that though, it's not down to footballers when they are there for a tournament Like Lloris said, why didn't the authorities do that 10 years ago when they decided to award the WC to Qatar It's like blaming the train driver for the tickets being too expensive and the trains always being late, when it's down to decades of train companies underinvesting in the network
It's been well reported and footballers have been aware of it for a long time. Up to them if they want to go to the WC and just play football but don't come out with nonsense like respect the culture when the culture or some aspects of the culture like modern day slavery and a maximum punishment for homosexuality of stoning to death are simply unacceptable. Shut up and play football.

Looking forward to the footy starting now. Honestly couldn't give a sh8t about the rest of the stuff as probably 3/4 of the world is bonkers in some form or other. Basically the sooner the human race is wiped out the sooner we call all rest in peace. Anyway back to the footy...come on England.
They’ve got camps set up for the alcoholics somewhere near the desert plains I believe that’s called ‘compromising’ If we have a World Cup here and an Arab or North African team qualifies and they demand that they can hear the call to prayer 5 times a day as they do back home will that be allowed for the month? nope, didn’t think so Typical Western arrogance Your country, our rules Our country, our rules seriously hope some of these fans get bare Friday afternoon prayer lashings they the best coz y get free popcorn
