Gianni Infantino and the Blatter factor

Day -863. ‪‎WorldCup2018‬
 
I was beginning to like this Gianni Infantino. If there is to be no complete overhaul of the list of presidential candidates then he was starting to look like the best bet. But then he can't come out and say a bad word about Sepp Blatter. Yes, respect and all that. But is there an element of fear there? Does Infantino suspect that Blatter, despite being banned, still wields enough power in the football world to influence voters. And is he worried that if he does get elected and Blatter wins his appeal, that Blatter will come back to make his time as President a nightmare if he says anything negative?
