and a voice for south america and then to go worldwide and then we have to look on the laws of the game how are the laws of the game and then the laws they have to to to be adapted adapted. to the development of the game the game became faster and then we have realized after the world cup in the internally. ninety million on it area no one cares very boring world cup or in the u.s. only defendants yeah defending the back pass to the goalkeeper. and i knew had referees at the line they wouldn't participate if they freed just in the center of the secretary general and then. installed a so-called fee from two thousand group of specialist to change the way how does that work yeah i remember you put a group together to make football more combative and more exciting how did that

group work exactly what if they did it in a very because everybody has realised the coaches the players the media even the referees and realise that they were wrong to have referees at the line because to be a linesman or to be an if it is different the linesman is a judge the referee is a referee has to say yes or no the other one has in or out so and then the two see that the match was lasting less than thirty minutes the whole match in the game than it was played because this back pass to the us and then they did the known the respect of. let's say the. the strike was going and being then tackled from behind by saying oh it's no single agency yellow card so we have to. that and this was

a big big. big issue or discussion and. players also have found that time already to michel platini in just that there and and really. so fast and never did the national board has changed the rules then from one world cup to the other. have made different changes the game both in forty years later the united states was said foster. the first much is it people or players have been red carded because of it was called the fall foul play of last instance before outside of the sixteen of the eighteen yards. and also he had no linesman on the. on the line and the same to the british we have to say

we have changed the scoring means the devaluation of the score city points for a win to say let's go to win and not only two points and so on so this was the biggest change that have been made in the laws of the game to me about the players of today i mean you also have called them modern day slaves but this people are making millions of euros and dollars per week i mean the transfer fees they're just nuts they're getting bigger and bigger records are broken every year i don't see how football players are at a disadvantage share and how they are modern day slaves maybe you know something i don't i don't know that you didn't like this whole transfer fee. manny out where like hundreds of millions of. dollars were poured in one player and he wanted to change that but that didn't happen so this transfer system the way we see right now

is the only way for football. or do you think it's still going to be changed in the future no is it it cannot be changed because it is based on on the so called demand of economic principles and that is you cannot change the only thing would feel the need to not feel that the u.s. tried to do is to introduce this system called financial fair play say financial pain finances there are no fair play finances there are cons that and then. make a rule that. and a club should not. in between its day in court and the expenses should not be a too much greater gap and where is the money coming from. but this is the same. rule where they cannot be successful so i know that you're not

a big fan of the video assistant referee and it's going to be the first time during world cup two eighteen in russia that it's going to be used at this level of competition spoken to the organizers and they're actually saying that it's tested working really well it's going to make judgement in football a lot easier what are your reservations what's to reason you mistrust that i don't mistress and then. develop also refereeing. you have started to. the goal line technology but it took three years until it was introduced because before you introduce a very important change in the laws of the game there must be some experiences made around the vote this is a principle of this international football association board the now and i was out there no fifa and they have no put in the so-called.

bar video system the referee and this is not exactly what personally we have television to do we have not us television to bully to to be the referee of to game and so i said it is not the time for of the world cup to make such an experiment. before going to make an experiment. it shall be done in the different order competitions and vote about competition that can be to use competition to woman's competition in order to see how it's happened because now you have the majority of the referees and they are now in the about the world cup they have never to be if the system and you have also the majority of the players there they have never to be if the system so how so that's why i've put a. that was. not criticizing fifo in this case

that they said the doing of the international boat the guardians of the laws who have to give why you have permitted to do that but no it's done and done then see what will happen. we're going to take a short break right now when we're back we'll continue talking to accept the letter or talk about football and how it is perceived in today's world in the upcoming world cup stay with us. hello we're here in st petersburg attending the annual st petersburg international economic forum our topic is from the atlantic to the pacific we all know the world is changing we talk about what moves these changes in who's behind.

when lawmakers manufacture consensus instead of public wealth. when the woman closest to protect themselves. with the famous merry go round to be the one person told. to ignore middle of the room signal. the real news is. the a.

perception that are obviously. when power is changed ever comes into power brings new sets of rules new teams so your successor. in fee thought also brought a new team he changed everyone completely. most of the people in power are now former football players i don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing i don't know what feeds on eats whether football players or x. coaches or good managers maybe you can tell me but also if you want to create an extended version of a club world cup that would be held every four years and twenty four club teams

would take part i don't really understand the logic behind it i mean fee for explains that this is actually a great idea it will bring more competition to the game will make it more interesting for the fans a couple of points that i want to ask you about first will. the football players i mean will they be so tired of playing this endless tournaments because there are just so many of them you know since the world cup the regional champions champions league come for duration cap olympic games. don't they need to also train and rest second of all the fans i mean it's great to have a lot of competitions but wouldn't that also dilute their attention from the main thing which is the world cup yeah and also why would anyone want to give up you know their money i'm talking about the u.s. . why would they want to be part of the fifa world club. why the

fifa world cup is still number one interval of any sporting event and they'd is in popularity five times more popular than the olympic games that i find out about that's one cat five i'm sorry but if a club world they want to build a crater is that because the end of the question was delayed the world cup suffered the vocab in knots of no matter what not rather what but the international coal and it was so difficult to bring an international cullen to together no we knew competitions in this international calendar that's a nonsense because then the early degree gorean kalinda ifs three hundred sixty five days so we should ask to have somebody another calendar the five hundred days and then it would be possible. plea.

on the sole social or social. point of view it will always be the same clubs the same players the players they cannot it's impossible they have no more time to rest and if they have no more time to rest then they are injured and they are out and and and and this is another respect and not respect to the actors on the field of play that's first of all secondly the fans so he confronts and at a certain time. they will have enough they will have enough because they open a television there is always soaker all around survival. and and there are so many competitions and the books which competition will then suffer the most if all this will be done nationally and to do football is first of all. for the national day of the game because it's

a national food both nationally and if they try it even now in europe they try to put the good matches of the champions league at the end of the week and at the end of the week it's always been for the national football not only the professional football a matter of football and all those then play at the end of the week and it's a normal respect it is these ideas it's a non respect to the players it's a non respect to the fans and fans are known or suspected the organization of football football is organized through national association fifa is is a not a somebody or a confederation of national associations so i get the two points thank you and that their point is about the clubs there operate inside their own federations like champions league is part of you have why would they ever want to give up their revenues to find be part of this new fifa club world cup for instance.

so far so far and until the end of two fifteen. finances they that well i was very happy and proud to lead fifty. two point four billion one point four in the reserves one by one billion in cash but now fifa needs more money they need more money because they have changed demand . they have another approach new a new president here's another view how to organize the phone. data as you have said to be a form of footballers that's ok but a form of football they need also the schooling to be in the position they are they are know how they get it before the people there and so it is because fifa is looking for more money that they are coming with if these new ideas and there is

somewhere this offer from from a consortium of banks. speaking about japan sell going to be a usa they have put together twenty five billion dollars. to get to decide to commit an asian country twenty tonight they want to invest twenty five billion a year to actually reform. to buy out to two competitions that you cannot buy competitions and that will be like a first time that you are selling competitions to a third party is it a good thing or a bad thing no. i've never in my in my forty one years in chief never sold any.
