Day -678. WorldCup2018
I'm all tired out by that Olympic watching, too tired to think about football. That will come this weekend with the start of the English football season. No, it's not the Premier League but where the real football is: the newly named EFL, the English Football League. The Premier League has Mourinho and Pep, the EFL has Rafa and Bobby (di Mateo)....and Zenga. Not to mention many teams are becoming the playthings of the Chinese billionaires.
But to bring it back to Olympics and Russia, I'm also mentally drained from trying to do some calculations as to how 270 of Russia's 330 team are still in Rio despite the widespread bans. Take out the track and field team, and the weightlifters, and Sharapova and...er...I guess that was it. So it does make sense. All that fuss about bans came down to almost nothing. Yeah, Russia are really going to get reprimanded by Fifa in the lead up to 2018.
