Platini Blunders in Embracing Nationalists' Political Football
"It is an easy mistake to make. Just because someone was a brilliant football player he will therefore make a brilliant football administrator, right? Wrong, actually, and wrong on a grand scale like assuming Morrissey would make a first-class psychiatrist because he wrote some insightful songs about the human condition.
Michel Platini was the Morrissey of footballers. Sadly he has been the James Blunt of football administrators — not in the sense that he has been soppy and criminally middle-of-the-road but simply that he has been rubbish."
