Just a few weeks ago, the Fifa president, Gianni Infantino, was riding high after a successful World Cup. Now, he's on the brink of losing his job.

Jonathan Wilson, journalist and author, assesses the future of FIFA President Gianni Infantino, as some countries begin to withdraw support.

In this episode, the boys aren't amused by the recent string of play by Nashville SC.  Whether it's the injury bug, a lack of effort or focus or just a World Cup hangover, the boys insist that this team needs to get their heads right and start playing like the Nashville we know and love.  And while Hany Mukhtar is trying to do his part as captain, there's concern over his injury in the DC United game now, and Ahmed Qasem is not going to save the day.  But we'll tell you who does continue to save the day - Brian Schwake, who is making a case for that ever-so-rare goalkeeper MVP.  The boys soothe their pain listening to Circles by Nashville local rocker Pujol, which might turn out to be a great campaign song for Jon, who is officially throwing his hat into the ring for FIFA President.  He couldn't do any worse than the current leadership! The boys do everything they can to get excited about the Leagues Cup (and they fail), but they still predict a pretty successful tournament for Warren Madrigal.  And they drink beer.

Miguel Delaney, Chief football writer at The Irish Independent, discusses the multiplying woes of FIFA President, Gianni Infantino.

Box2Box, with Rob Gilbert and Willem van Denderen...Gianni Infantino’s position as FIFA President looks increasingly untenable following a week where his floated plan to sell a portion of the World Cup to private investment was denounced emphatically by some confederations and many individual member nations. Simon Hill returns to pick through what’s been yet another seismic week, that feels to have acted only as a portent for bigger things still yet to come.Meanwhile, Chelsea’s hardline youth policy seems to have softened, with Danny Welbeck and Jordan Henderson among Xabi Alonso’s initial signings. The Athletic’s Liam Twomey considers whether a shift in attitude could bring a calming of the turbulent waters at Stamford Bridge.Also on the agenda: Lucas Herrington on verge of record-breaking Hull City move, Australia Cup draw promises further action & loads more…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The writing could be on the wall for Gianni Infantino. Just last week the FIFA President looked untouchable but a week is a long time and after sparking global outrage with his latest plan to boost FIFA's bank accounts - Infantino is left clinging on to power.Mark Chapman is joined by The New York Times journalist Tariq Panja and special guest Emily Maitlis from The News Agents to talk about the life and times of Gianni Infantino - the pivotal moments from his past which explain everything about the man, from his pursuit of money to his wooing of the rich and powerful.Infantino's unusually close relationship with US president is under the microscope and as Gianni's recent moves have more than a whiff of Donald J Trump about them, the guys ask: Has acting like Trump has cost Gianni Infantino his job?

In the last hour, FIFA President Gianni Infantino has issued a statement on his proposal to sell off a section of FIFA tournaments, including World Cups, to private investors. When his plan came to light in the last few days, it was met with major opposition from all parts of the football family. UEFA, CONCACAF and the Asian Football Confederation all voiced their official opposition to it in very strong terms, threatening to boycott future World Cups unless the scheme was abandoned Senior officials at FIFA, including Infantino's senior adviser Carlos Cordeiro, have quit in protest of both the idea itself, and the unilateral way in which it has been pulled together, without any form of consultation at all. And the idea is now dead in the water. The statement from the FIFA President reads as follows: "The FIFA Forward Enterprise project was intended to provide a basis for further strengthening our FIFA Member Associations and our sport worldwide, especially in those countries where support is most needed. “And more so, as we said from the outset, to do this only if a majority of the FIFA Member Associations were in support and always subject to a consultation process with them, the FIFA Council, the Confederations and wider stakeholders. “Having listened carefully to all the views, it has become clear that the project has created divisions of a nature that, regardless of the level of support, are no longer in the interest of the objective set out in the first place. “Our purpose has always been - and will always be - to unite and improve. “As a result, this proposal will not proceed. “Moving forward, my intent is to bring all interested parties back together in the coming days and weeks in the spirit of shared interest in our game, and with the objective to continue growing football everywhere, particularly in those countries that mostly need our support." This is an enforced back-down of staggering, unprecedented proportions and a misjudgement of the highest order from Gianni Infantino, which has led to an utter humiliation for him. During his time in the FIFA presidency, Infantino has become more and more detached from reality, to the point where he thought he was some all-powerful head of the global game and could do whatever he liked without any regard, let alone any discussion, with anyone else. His arrogance and levels of delusion have become breath-taking. The game is not Gianni Infantino's to sell. It is not anyone's to sell. Those in the corridors of power at FIFA are merely guardians of the game, not the owners of any part of it. FIFA exists to administer the game and to ensure its development in all parts of the world. But somewhere along the line, Gianni Infantino has fallen under the severe misapprehension that he is somehow bigger than the game itself. He's not. And this may well mark the beginning of the end for a man who has become deeply unpopular as the game's supposed global leader. Anyone with a shred of dignity or self-awareness would now resign, but Infantino has neither, and so he won't. Our good friend on the show, Seb Stafford-Bloor wrote today in The Athletic that this is Gianni Infantino's Icarus moment. The FIFA president has finally flown too close to the sun and the consequences for him may well, and should, be swift and severe. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
