Summary: Yet another week in football, and yet more scandal and allegation surrounding two very big names in world sport as both Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini have been tossed into more troubling destinations as football seeks new leadership and a desperate need for new direction, while club football clearly has a new early stage breakaway threat in Bayern Munich with league rivals Dortmund as its next challenge. Joining Anto in the first segment is David Larkin from ChangeFIFA to dissect and unravel the recent allegations at FIFA including Sepp Blatter as a target of a criminal investigation by Swiss authorities and how Michel Platini has been caught up in a web of innuendo and tangled explanations around how he came to be part of a disloyal payment for services rendered several years later, putting his presidential ambitions into serious question as he struggles to offer a clear and plausible explanation. We examine some of the key ramifications, how the sporting justice system obscures the process and insulates those in power and how this FIFA election cycle could impact US Soccer with a number of key questions to answer itself. Then in part two, Susie Schaaf gives us the view of a breakaway Bayern Munich so early in the season with new options and devastating depth as the club continues to dominate the Bundesliga and has laid waste to Dinamo Zagreb midweek in the Champions League.
