This is by far the best World Cup I’ve seen in decades … hands down
And how many lives were lost when Iraq was invaded? The hypocrisy is unreal.

How come qatari government does not involve iraq, syria, palestinian... invasions? How come they are always involved in showing off with their 7 star hotels and posh cars in there but the same race arabic countries dying out there? Instead of fighting so much for a football tournament and build posh stadiums to wreck later on, they could have helped millions of people. This hypocrisy is some next level.

It's not about the past. It's about the present. When they chose Qatar, after taking a bunch of bribes, btw, they caused (not very indirectly, btw) the death of 6500 migrant workers, and the enslavement of hundreds of thousands.
As a presenter he has managed to become even more loathed than a politician.
If he really wants to take a stand he shouldn't be going at all! But of course he also wants to go because of the money.

How do you know why he's going? Is he well paid? Yes I'm sure he is. Is he paid to be a sports journalist? Yes. Has football been his entire life? Yes. Could it not be that he is going because he gets the chance to do a major job in the sport that is his life? Or both things...... Or none of the things that are stated. Unless you have spoken to him, how do you know that anything you said is true?

As a spurs and England fan since 86 I used to have a lot of respect for Lineker , but the man now is a total two faced hypocrite of the highest order , let's see what he protests about in four years time in America who have continually oppressed and violated most human rights since world war 2. Not to mention the millions lineker has made from Qatari deals in the last few years. No let's not talk about that , it's all beckhams fault now , 🤷🏽

If you want to learn about class learn from Japanese. How they cleaned up after the game instead of a few hypocrites who think they have a moral ground to stand up. Last time I checked Quatar never invaded a sovereign country under false pretence.
British jealousy and hypocrisy.

First, it is Lineker lol and he is a football pundit and ex football player. I never seen him singing or talk about music before. Every world cup host country was criticised before. Noboby from these countries called "others" racist or hypocrite lol. Same issue, he talked about brazil where kids were used to build stadiums and more than needed was spent for stadiums.
I mean what is 'Corruption' we have issues in our backyards, but easily point fingers at other nations. Focus on Football, double standards as always.
(2:05) Boom!! If this is the bases why this WC is a different level for Gary, then he's mistaken. Not a single evidence of corruption against Qatar. The not so secret sauce that Qatar used to convince the FIFA executive committee was South Africa's success in summer of 2010. Qatar faced competition from recent host Japan, Korea and USA, plus Australia. We played the card that this region needs and deserves this opportunity. And we delivered it.
Gary Lineker the biggest let down!!👎
Gary Lineker: Qatar hosting WC is/was a mistake. The rest of the world: Qatar WC 2022 is/was the best WC ever!
A small country but host World cup succesfully and spent a lot of money on it, good job Qatar 👏

He's talking about transparency!?! He was given Qatary money £1.6 million, proper hypocrite
Garry same as every World cup really $$$$$$$
Hes making slot of money and pretending h s a saint
STOP CALLING IT SOCCER!!!! You're British for heavens sake.
Who cares how many gol he shoot. Its not important. Respecting other country culture is more important. Which country is clean no corruption. You go Qatar to play football......if you want to play your bf ball please stay at your own country to go Qatar.
Lol comments too infatuated with the sport they can’t see what the business of the sport hides

I dont mind him speaking on things because he can count to 10 his a smart guy
I can feel and see the hatred very clearly plus hypocrisy

The LGBTQ+ rights need to looked at and digested democratically...... rather than prejudged opinion and pre_concept ideas based on bigotry about a certain cace and religion ( Arabs and Muslims) 100% of UK citizens support gay relationships which the sitting government give them full inclusive rights and everyone in the uk has to respect that and if anyone don't it will be against the law. 100% of citizens in Qatari are against gay relationships so the sitting government has to respect that and make it against the law and everyone has to respect that and if anyone don't it will be against the law It's really disturbing how the British media is trying to force the western way of life on literally every nation and if they don't agree they will be offenders is that democracy!! Qatar and Muslim countries and Muslims in general will never accept gay relationships not now not tomorrow not ever. Wake up and smell the coffee

First he distract away from the subject, trying to talk about previous world cups. Then starts laughing to mask his anxiety of the questions. He has known about this from day one. By him not speaking out in his capacity it shows it is not a problem to him. Qatar is a country living in the dark ages, they have killed people for living their lives their own way. Gary has no clue. He has played a defender in this interview.
