Gab, did he show up?

And what's going to happen next night?

Do you think he knows?

He doesn't know, obviously.

Nobody knows what's going to happen in the next few weeks, few months, and what will be the situation comes June, early June, end of May even, when the Iran players just get together and get ready in a camp like every other nation that will take part in the World Cup.

We don't know.

We want them to be there.

It would be amazing for them.

It would give, I think, some hope and some happiness to Iranians all around the world.

Sure, there's a strong community, obviously, in the US too.

So that would be wonderful if there could be.

But right now, Gianni or anybody else can say for sure that they will be at the World Cup.

Several countries are worried that the 2026 World Cup will actually cost them money.

Gab, how is this even possible?

Yeah, that's right.

We talked a little bit about it yesterday, didn't we?

And the fact that Tuchel in those two games against Uruguay, Japan, never got to play his strongest XI, whereas we've seen pretty much with every other big country in this national break, at least one of the two games, one of the two friendlies for the ones who are playing friendlies, you had the A team really, and then a lot of changes for the second game or the other around.

With Tuchel, because I think he messed things up completely with his squad of 35, leaving some players at home,

with time off, then bring them back, but then they can't play.

So in the end, you've got two mishmash of teams, really, which didn't make much sense and didn't look like much either.
