And i got to like lots to be joined by david for it every time i know how trick fifty i goals mary and i see seven games with less than a year a wife will cook in russia you havent retired youve got to be putting yourself back in for the selection of and. I mean the scenes that is least read if you go because three as i know they dont call me to different cochairs. They have really really would play who are really good players. Mr i guess of course they will cost a lot of great players and i do my best always been my thing i did it always in my career when when i started to go to the National Team i mean so hes my dream to. To join their National Team but since it is least me is really difficult because the last three years i go away for the worse they simply wont. Join us up to the shore bright because ill be looking no ones really some bend and tony evans discussing predictions dont go anywhere. Heres what people have been saying about redacted in the us is that it is full on author of the only show i go out of my way to gently is that really packs of. Yampa is the john oliver of r t america is just the same we are apparently better than that i see people who have never heard of love right back to the night president of the world bank hate him because he really meant it. Send us an email. Right up with. The best out of the jewels of. The concepts this pain to perform how to actually pass myself to. Heed what other state custody case. Has lost. In home. Squinty was. Really good. So well see if you think. That he could with us to. Yes get more time to make sure. The. B. S. Get. Up. Close with you when you dont usually see the teacher so i. Did a quick. What did you not through ted space to. Make. Love to the. Said. Claiming to know german did that to. Alex you speak french. Musette was all of you. That said the. Continued. Son is busy but not a false. We already in the Stan Collymore show studio based way to likes to be joined by two sports journalists i was invited up in the afternoons on the show we have privately flung from callington into continent. Asking the great and the good of the guy. On their favorites to win the world cup and soma heres what some of them had to say. To those fronts another front something that made a big mistake in the euros and there will be nothing can say in the final but with the wealth of talent theyve gotten any beef is on to say be authentic liberals should do well to consider the balance im still a bit skeptical when it comes to a title food for peace to be kicked off to another called bothers me its about the tories. As about the county we should do well still. Its always going to australia theyre going to be theyre going to be there. But theres always those you never know they had germans almost too well in world cups and youre also you know collectively to sing together a head of steam in the tournaments things are still the magic of brazil the thing just gone after that result last time around when i got smashed by my germany i was like argentina you know miss you can change game singlehandedly you know the rest of the team could be average you could drag them through all the way to the house on the floor. To light so that you both to miss that start with ali from my. Woke up every four years is what usually throws out the same countries is this going to be the same is it going to germany brazil argentina and spain that are your favorites to win well its truth you can only really you cant get beyond germany county because you can look at the holders but that was four years ago you might say so have they been doing it lately well yes of course Confederations Cup winners as well i know they clade much we can side it was it was a young side but also i think the under twenty ones they won the euros as well and one of the articles i read which i found most fascinating i dont know if you saw the same one but they basically said the chair many have for starting eleven in every single position and when you look at the fourth one its actually pretty impressive for you does it tally that the germans can have a strong domestically and also do well competitive internationally that somebody says something here in england would be quite a debate for some time about yeah well i mean the thing about the germany has there that you know Young Players get a chance so the Confederations Cup winning team was fully young talents and also have a great idea of how they want to play the style they want to play the philosophy the use and the best balance squads in the tournament and i think the just the strong in every department was even polls in most of the contenders i can see pos yemi brazil. More are is the next global superstar if not already after the likes of lino messi and cristiano ronaldo. Though humble those in the stadium when germany britain seven one in the in the american own people were genuinely tearing up absolutely distraught will i learn from that experience brazil absolutely i mean youve got to lever an experience like that maybe you know you might be a little bit confident overconfident perhaps when you have a result like that you that must have been those players worst moment in a football. For a couple country. Its absolutely embarrassing usually the players that you kind of looking to shine often dont so be interesting to see what happens in a market having a torrid time in this club at the moment isnt he he had that move and it doesnt seem to be working out well for him well he had very similar to us and so you know what messi you know theyre expecting that neymar to lead them theyre expecting to create in ten games and thats a lot of pressure on him i dont think theyve got the infrastructure around them in the team to give them the best opportunity to dominate a well cup just feel that spain at the moment just on the level and youve got a countries like france and germany ahead of those i mean spain is always going to be a behind and another back there isnt it i think people underestimate when the mentality will do for the germans the expect to win you know they do you if they go to milby and they still expect to come back and win the french a little bit fragile mentally in that area so i think that might hamper them draws the world corp and does russia need russian team to do well for the mantle of the tournament within russia and also as hosts well as helps because i think if host seem get be salient looks like theyre not going through it takes the air out of the blue and sort of thing and the i think if russia can qualify out of the group i think the whole nation will be energized and excited and that that really adds a welcome to mean you know when you go to well cops if the host nation are doing well everyones talking most everywhere you go you can avoid the cork in some to uninstall when theyre going to have the its a bit of some football going on down the road so it would be nice to see russia do well audience interest at same woman saying that out a number of managers that gone through a number of players in recent seasons allison what your thoughts of of argentina generally do we put them in the brazil german a historical cuts agree or not quite. Yeah i mean of course historically they are a superpower in football but i think so of late weve not really seen it from them i know that i think theres always been that whenever whenever talk about leno messi but can he do for oceans haina and lately he hasnt been although more recently hes actually had some good games so you know hopefully that momentum or carry on into this well cup because these are the kind of teams that we want to see do well we want argentina is in the more the finals in the semifinals of football narrative that little messi is the to imply a remote go can be a little bit greedy a but the statistics dont. Look to that is one titles in two Different Countries when three premier league fawley gets always been it has to be a team player at Manchester United and around which is one International Level why is this still a day this man isnt quite history will not quite judge him the same as the kid you know i think theres theres a theres a few things one of the things unfairly so perhaps is his persona i mean you see him in this with his hair slicked modesty personified it is that hes got six carrots in the cereal doing theyve got another little toy piano that actually of i mean ive interviewed him on many occasions hes actually a very grounded humble guy when you see his upbringing his mum the way he treats his mother you actually think this is a little bit unfair the way that people are saying i mean actually maybe a little messy is not this whiter than white house that everyones kind of painted but i do think a lot of that does come into it i mean you know what yes he is it of course hes a team player he has to be we saw this at the euros but he kind of did it in a very solitary way so he basically you know allowed his team to win the euros being a bit selfish busy body language because sometimes it goes through resolve and really it is does he only. Time he was the messenger is this i dont know which is more arrogant i mean its a tricky one isnt it we have it is but i mean the thing christiane oh hes not hes not an intellectual Football Player hes not a thinker of sorties or do well and he will go so easy so you know and given that his knees are in such a bad state and hes got no courage in the sneezers its amazing that he does it so its a hairs breadth between yes and. An unfair debate in many ways because these two in the top certainly in the top ten players ever. To be in the top five hundred were blessed to see them finally from the great in the good of World Football to england which added to the greater the good at the Russian Embassy recently about the three lions chances. I think englands english good but for me. Just losing games new world cup but a more like if i can go back to when i was a for the first three world cups more cops to the game to not even used to close fancy teams it was going to cirillo going to be easy im still waiting for the person he that makes me really believe we can get that six points on the board going into the game gives goals and so if you believe in hard luck to be going to great group of Young Players got to say to every world cup and well get disappointed so that i do think that we have heard we have still some good byes you know were not going to make it or you know have a go you know ive got something going to win it but so ill be disappointed if we dont make a cool one of the great. I think one of the worries at the moment is carrot southgate doesnt quite know his best eleven i think hes played at forty different players i keep saying you know hes playing three at the back and four at the back and changing things bringing in Young PlayersJack Wilshere as you say might get parachuted in so we need to know what is our best and i think the euros interest water despite coming off the back of the most phenomenal drinkwater despite coming off the back of the most phenomenal season where bodies going for fun so just look at all the stations that didnt quite go in their favor we go into International Football and approach it differently to the way to play every year so you know we go places hes not a frustrated so i hit the physicality of the speed of the let me take so theres so much pace in the squads but you know got doesnt seem to find a way to use or ill be playing a premier league thanks to the game to the opposition you know to use rain still and raise good at these runs on the channels you know theres just as i was of physicality and pace the only difference i. Really appreciate your this we come back to just before the world cup and join us again to see where we are when the squads have been given out enough to notice a bend and tommy evans who joined us. On the Stan Collymore show dont forget that youll get all of the clips on social media into twitter at you nine weeks and well be back next week thank you very much for joining us politically. Turkeys decision to invade Northern Syria has Foreign Policy implications far beyond the middle east what are anchor his objectives in syria and the region doesnt facilitate a final peace settlement to syrias proxy civil war and what is turkeys future in eight. Eighteen years ago i traveled across the United States exploring americas deadly love affair with the gun bad guy tried to get to one of my family members he would have better a lot better and i think its fair and hurting when i buy my babies says my book was published in the year two thousand more than hoffa a million americans have been killed by firearms in the u. S. And we had a thought to me as i did this this is a middle school we go through drills and we put ourselves in real scenarios it was interesting to see who actually got hit by the gun i just saw i did to return to the subject to track down each gun owner who id met and photographed those years ago i dont know that but we are not. If they are imposing their sanctions we just start developing our domestic capabilities and topping our internal resources remember how during the previous u. S. Administration they said that the russian economy will be in shambles pointing to Falling Oil Prices and sanctions and all that stuff well i mean shambles no quite the opposite. Running out of them with. The best out of georgia. The concepts of preparing to perform. I had actually prepared myself to die. You dont know so he said well im stronger although im sorry trust me. As most of. The snow in houma was stuff. That i. Squinted interests. And he had the goods sewed on. So well see if you think. What. Was it he could with out west if it was just that yes get more here to education so itll appear to education were going to have a couple so kind of toilet b. S. Ive heard it. Was. Fresh sticks as you put it up but youve opened up this time. Extortion theft and drug peddling we report on a huge Police Corruption scandal unfolding in the u. S. City of baltimore where an elite unit tasked with taking guns off the streets went rogue. And. Also this hour the World Antidoping Agency says its seriously concerned with a decision by sports top court to overturn the limbic bans imposed on twenty eight russian athletes. And five margaret so shot dozens more injured in a mass brawl at a food bank in the french port city of kalak. Just gone five am here in the russian capital youre watching r. T. International with me Daniel Hawkins wherever you are thanks for joining us there are massive Police Corruption scandal is continuing to unfold in the u. S. City of baltimore six elite officers responsible for reducing gun crime have already pleaded guilty to charges of thieving from extorting residents as well as committing fraud and falsifying evidence a number of them are now out to fight against two former colleagues who have denied allegations of racketeering they came at me like a gang or something i remember one of the officers saying i looked like someone who needed to be robbed everybodys life is destroyed because of this my kids are afraid to go in the house and the so called Gun Trace Task force was made up of plainclothes officers it was supposed to be tackling the citys increasing moderate however the unit was dissolved and officers arrested in march of last year eight have been brought before a judge facing a slew of charges ranging from Drug Trafficking to planting fake evidence. No reports from baltimore on how the units crimes were exposed well it all started with an investigation into Drug Trafficking in new jersey then as the case unraveled federal authorities found out that the Baltimore Police department was also involved mostly its elite gun traced Task Force Unit months of recordings recovered from a device planted in a Police Cruiser reveal that officers were involved in Drug Trafficking robbery falsifying reports and planting fake evidence in one case a high speed car chase resulted in a crash which the officers tried to cover up one of the indicted x. Detectives involved actually broke down in tears in court it was a really bad accident none of us stopped to render aid to see if anyone was hurt we were foolish although i was doing so much wrong it got to a certain point where too much was too much altogether six officers have already pleaded guilty and two are still being tried but there are indications theres more to the story than just one Rogue Police UnitCourt Records show that the city paid over half a Million Dollars to settle claims of misconduct and falsifying reports involving the very same officers and dating back as far as twenty fourteen so why did they all fortys choose to sweep it all under the rug kind of you see this those offices of very well known in the streets for door what are they doing this isnt. Where it came up its been its probably been plenty of complaints you cant go an extra help because youre afraid that this particular officer might just do some so you might pencil its common when we see them coming we go to opposite direction if we can and if we can we deal with this circumstance this has been corruption for a long time you know just because this is one as it was though they decide to you know come forward or you know they got caught for what they done it stops their particular incident but at the same time as not going to stop the corruption has to be done to stop the corruption of these criminals. Our caps and the cards are criminals then theres the unsolved murder of detective shawn souter that took place in november last year so it wasnt part of the countrys taskforce but worked with some of the officers were now under indictment and the day before he was set to testify in the corruption probe he was shot in the head with his own weapon while on duty and another unfortunate twist which some might find suspicious a patrol car transporting the dying officer to an asp it all got into an accident theres no suspect in the murder so far and no eyewitnesses except one unnamed partner and when the Police Commissioner tried to redirect the investigation to the f. B. I. The agency refused saying that the case had nothing to do with the corruption probe im growing increasingly uncomfortable that my home aside the directives do not know all of the facts known to the f. B. I. Or the u. S. Attorneys office that good if revealed to us assist in furthering this Murder Investigation in the wake of the scandal Baltimore Police have launched an overhaul including a new commissioner bowing to rein in city violence but investigators still seem to have a very complicated plot to unravel samir khan r. T. Reporting from baltimore. Now also in the headlines the World Antidoping Agency says its concerned with the court of arbitration for sports the session to what hold the appeals of russian olympic athletes while the understands that this decision will cause dismay and frustration among athletes the agency supports the i. O. C. Is intention to analyze these decisions very carefully and consider all options including an appeal to the swiss federal tribe you know. On thursday the court of arbitration for sport ruled to lift all sanctions and reinstate the olympic medals for twenty eight russian athletes eleven others will miss out on the upcoming Winter Olympics in south korea but their lifetime bans have been overturned and sanctions partially lifted however the decision has disappointed other athletes from other countries who were hoping to move into medal positions retrospective early from the twenty fourteen games. But anything else this is a very very very dark day for the olympics and this is a very very very dark day for green sport you there is such a thing when. People are saying they cant prove they were dirty in the same breath you cant prove that they were innocent or you say they are not guilty or you say they are guilty and they have ruled that there is not enough proof for a doping offense hence they are not guilty and this is very important also because it makes to make law report to become not in bases which is enough to convict athletes and everything that was done up to now was based on the Mclaren Report and if this is now not basis enough to convict athletes then i do not understand why also all the russian at plates could have been banned collectively without having any any proof of the hoping. The mood of course was very different for the russian athletes sheer relief came over those who thought their dreams im careers have been dashed. Boylan said you know i found out about the decision during my training c. A. s decided to overturn my disqualification my ban i had only positive thoughts in my head about that ive been ready to ski for a long long time keeping up my training but i had a question right away what about the olympics are we able to dispute this and get an invitation but i was waiting for the results of a pill when i came back from practice its amazing yes then my scouts and team started congratulating each other such a relief when not guilty and the whole public will know that a lot of people who we date but only those close to us knew its not tree. Because ive been training with my pushchair the whole season and now because of whats happened ive been paired with someone else well have to adapt our techniques and make adjustments for way differences and work a lot in our start. Give us some moto is for me and for those who cant get there the whole situation has only me me angrier and even more determined to win. Or to discuss the issue lets cross live to Italian Journalist for thanks for joining us good to have you on the program when water has said its concerned about the ruling i would see if said they may appeal the decision as well why do you think that they also worried about the caste tribunals ruling. Well this is surprising because i mean he took her to rules for you know special kuwait and the kurds are the ga ga ga d. C. Based on the series. System so its a very fair. System and they should accept the sentence because there is no political interference but of course they should do so in addition Say Something because their position most been quite on the opposite side complaining that all the scandal was to be on a systematic manipulation unprecedented systematic many pollution and now they should at least show that something is wrong and something be suspicious at the same time while the medals have been reinstated the ruling doesnt actually explicitly say that these athletes are innocent does it it simply says theres insufficient evidence to justify these bans and taken the medals off them why do you think there is this ambiguity i mean surely the burden of proof should be on the accuser is innocent until Proven Guilty if the guilt cannot be proved does that mean by default theyre innocent you just meant is the case i mean if youre not going to if you cannot be proved that you are guilty youre innocent and the sentence is quite clear about this and i think its very its a very balanced something because they say twenty eight governments are clear and clean and they can go on and you learn are not clean and they can they will not turn the Olympic Games in south korea because these flourishes this shows that there are have been two investigations two independent based a geisha and the result is quite balance issues that they will be in clearly examined all cases piece by piece and find out what for me is just simply just six justice do you expect the i. O. C. To reconsider its decision and invite those russian athletes to to the game
