The FIFA World Cup 2022 that is being held in Qatar has attracted a lot of controversy. Ever since the corrupt malpractices and bribery of FIFA officials came out, things have been under the radar. This, to go along with human right violations, have not gone down well with the football fans.
To add to that, the intolerance of the Qatari people to a few common practices in other countries, especially for their guests, has attracted a lot of criticism too. With all being said and done, a lot of people are focused on the non-footballing aspects. It is just the way that things are at present.
However, one must also understand that not every country is similar. Each and every individual is made different. So, keeping that in mind, Gary Neville has actually said something smart for a change.
What did Gary Neville say about the FIFA World Cup 2022?
There is no doubt that Gary Neville has an obsession with Arsenal. The former right-back can’t stop talking about them. He is highly criticized by the Gooners across the globe for his biased opinions. Even some of his co-Pundits have a laugh at his expense many times.
However, this time, for a change, Gary Neville has said something brilliant. One must watch the video to know what it is. It just is something remarkable about the FIFA World Cup 2022.

Sensitive as this topic may be, a healthy debate is something that we can all work with. Having open conversations on these topics will surely help each and everyone of us grow. That is something that Gary Neville agrees upon.
Whether we like his opinion of the FIFA World Cup 2022 or on any footballing topic, is our choice. Despite that, this is something that can be appreciated by one and all. The idea of having a different opinion and talking and sharing them.
At the end of the day, Football is flourishing and the fans are loving every minute of it!!
Another thing that every football fan would agree on, is the fact that the World Cup should be held in all countries that are inhabitable to mankind. Qatar is a decent footballing nation. And they do deserve the right to host the tournament.
One may not agree with some of the restrictions. While others may argue the circumstances under which they got the rights to host the tournament. But, surely, their right to host the competition at least once, shouldn’t have gone unnoticed. They are a goldmine and can give a lot back to world football.
So, at the end of the day, every nation should host the tournament, some day or the later. It is just the way that things should be. Football is a globally watched sport and the market is always expanding. So, let’s see how fast it can each every more nations and eventually conquer the world as the biggest sport ever, if not already!! Cheers!!
