Infantino and Trump -- handshakes, warmth and a mutual interest
FIFA boss Gianni Infantino has seemingly found the right formula for dealing with US President Donald Trump (Anna Moneymaker) The heads of state who have felt the lash of US President Donald Trump's tongue in the Oval Office could do worse than seek advice from FIFA chief Gianni Infantino, who seems to have got their relationship down to a fine art. Infantino has shown a deft touch when it has come to dealing with hard-nosed leaders, from Russian President Vladimir Putin, when Russia hosted the 2018 World Cup, and now Trump with the United States set to co-host football's global showpiece next year. Advertisement Trump has been quite the opposite, showing no mercy to those who have dared challenge him -- he has laid into Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and his South African counterpart Cyril Ramaphosa in extraordinary scenes at the White House. However, with Infantino it is all smiles, compliments and Trump's traditional use of the words "great" and "greatest" when he likes something or somebody. Infantino was one of just a handful of prominent sports figures present at Trump's inauguration. "Infantino handles Trump really well," Martin Sorrell, the founder of advertising giants WPP who is putting together a documentary for next year's World Cup, told AFP. Advertisement Sorrell pointed to when Infantino was filmed with Trump in March, showing off the trophy for the upcoming Club World Cup. "Trump, who had the FIFA trophy behind him in the Oval Office on the video, said... 'as one president to another'," he noted. Infantino appears to have placed his relationship with Trump front and centre -- perhaps unsurprising as the women's 2031 World Cup is also expected to be hosted in the US as well as the inaugural women's Club World Cup in 2028. However, there are signs that the relationship can grate with others as it did with UEFA representatives when Infantino arrived late at a FIFA Congress in Paraguay in May having been with Trump on the US president's visit to Qatar and then Saudi Arabia. Advertisement - 'My great friend' - Nevertheless, whether some like it or not Infantino has restored relations with the US which reached its nadir under his predecessor Sepp Blatter. After the US lost out to Qatar for the right to host the 2022 World Cup, a FBI investigation resulted in 'Fifagate', leading to several of the governing body's senior figures going to jail and Blatter resigning. In 2018, two years after Infantino was elected, the US were named co-hosts of the 2026 World Cup, earning him an invitation to the White House. Two years later the 'bromance' was strengthened when Trump asked Infantino to deliver the address at a dinner he hosted at the Economic Forum in Davos. Advertisement "America is on the verge of becoming a great soccer power," purred Infantino. "The 'American dream' is something we all need to have. All those who love soccer." Trump responded by praising FIFA as a "steadfast movement" and Infantino as "my great friend." Infantino's loyalty -- a characteristic Trump values in others above all else -- has remained rock solid. The press conference-shy football boss has in his social media posts steered clear of commenting on the slights made by Trump regarding his World Cup co-hosts Mexico and Canada. So keen is he to maintain smooth relations, he did not even step in to correct Trump, sitting behind him, when the US president said inviting Russia to the 2026 World Cup could facilitate them making peace with Ukraine. Advertisement Russia are barred from the qualifiers due to the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. However, both have so much invested in the World Cup being a success that nothing must blight the landscape. "Gianni's obviously got a very close relationship with Trump and he's leveraging that because both sides have a mutual interest for 2026 to work," John Zerafa, an experienced sports communications strategist based in the UK, told AFP. "Trump is a guy that's driven by headlines and being in the spotlight, and he's going to love being in the spotlight in the run-up to and during the World Cup, and he knows that it's got to go smoothly. "So they've got a mutual interest for 2026 to work." pi-rcw-cfe/gj

5 shows like 'Big Mouth' on Netflix to stream now that the animated show is over
Netflix recently released the final season of the hit animated show 'Big Mouth," serving up one last crudely hilarious deluge of puberty jokes and high school drama. Nick, Andrew, Jessi, Missy, Jay, and Matthew are all growing up — both inside and out — and the series continues to embrace the messy, awkward and deeply weird process of adolescence. And now that the last episode has dropped, 'Big Mouth' fans might find themselves itching to fill the hormone-fueled void with another favorite adult animated binge. Here are five shows like "Big Mouth," all of which you can stream on Netflix. The creators of 'Big Mouth' (comedian Nick Kroll and showrunner Andrew Goldberg) saw how successful their first series had become and launched a spin-off in 2022 featuring a new cast of emotional 'monsters.' This time, the setting is an HR department, which brings some refreshing office humour to what could've been a staid backdrop. SNL alum Aidy Bryant personifies Emmy the Lovebug, the key character driving the story of 'Human Resources." She struggles to identify with her first client, Becca, a pregnant lawyer with various shades of depression. Randall Park voices Pete the Logic Rock, who is as stoic as his name and often acts awkward in any interaction, but he begins to open up as the seasons progress. And comedian Maria Bamford brings her unique voice to Tito the Anxiety Mosquito, who often chills with Depression Kitties, as you would expect. Segueing from 'Big Mouth' to 'Human Resources' is as easy as diving into 'Better Call Saul' after 'Breaking Bad,' and the tight writing and complex themes around self-actualization will be familiar ground for B'ig Mouth' veterans — especially those who would love a cameo or two from Maury the Hormone Monster. Watch on Netflix Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The five-season show, which ended in 2021, is the brainchild of stand-up star Bill Burr, and it's one of the more realistic animated shows on the list. Set in the 1970s and inspired by Burr's own family experiences, the show gives viewers a raw portrayal of a dysfunctional family navigating generational clashes and financial quagmires. With the father being a perpetually angry guy, Bill Burr afficionados will see many themes cropping up from the comedian's popular stand-up bits. But 'F is for Family' allows Burr to explore deeper probes into the, say, father-son dynamic that he rarely discusses on stage. You'll also notice an A-list cast of actors lending their voices to the series, from Laura Dern to Sam Rockwell to Justin Long. Watch on Netflix The biggest criticism this show gets is that Coach Ben (voiced by Jack Johnson, also the creator) is an unlikable character, but to each their own, right? If you can get past this issue, you'll likely enjoy this fun show about a high school basketball coach overwhelmed by his own ego. Believing he's destined for coaching greatness, Ben is obsessed with recruiting a seven-foot student with no interest in basketball, which is the main arc of the show, except for bits about his thorny relationship with his wife and battling Principal Opal. 'Hoops' only lasted one season (did the vulgarity turn off Netflix in the end?), but it's still an engaging watch whether or not you've come across a disillusioned coach like Ben. Watch on Netflix Lasting five seasons before Netflix axed it, 'Disenchantment' has the same animation style as 'Futurama' and 'The Simpsons' thanks to creator Matt Groening, who brought us Homer, Marge and Bart eons ago. Set in a fictional Medieval country, the series stars Princess Tiabeanie (Abbi Jacobson) revolting against her parents' plans to marry Prince Merkime (Matt Berry), but she only has eyes for Elfo (Nat Faxon), a naïve and lovesick elf. It doesn't always hit the same comedic notes as Groening's other popular shows, but it's fair to call 'Disenchantment' charming and digestible. It's also a great watch for family viewing if your children are pre-teens or older, as this series doesn't boast the same crude jokes as 'Human Resources' and 'Hoops.' Another strong anchor of the show is Luci (Eric Andre) who is a demon acting as the princess's lovable but scheming companion. He also often has the best lines: 'Being evil is a lot of work. You gotta tempt, you gotta corrupt, you gotta convince people to do bad stuff. It's exhausting.' Watch on Netflix Without a doubt, 'BoJack Horseman' is one of the more popular animated shows on Netflix for being a mature and smart look at mental health, intergenerational trauma and addiction. All this from a cast of characters with names like Mr. Peanutbutter and Pinky Penguin. As the titular character falls into a depression after realizing his career as a professor is a far cry from his early days as an actor on the show "Horsin' Around," we see a range of storylines about BoJack finding validation in one-night stands, recovering from his traumatic upbringing, and reconnecting with someone from his past he never thought was alive (don't worry, we won't spoil it here). Starring Will Arnett, Paul F. Tompkins, Amy Sedaris and Aaron Paul, the show is punchy and confident, and the writing is tight and at turns beautiful. It truly should've won more Emmy Awards. Rest assured, you won't look at how we view fame and self-worth the same when 'BoJack' is done with you. Watch on Netflix
