It's overcoached and it has gotten more predictable as he mega rich have flooded in to buy the bigger clubs and they have amassed massive herds of glory hunting massively entitled fans but i do still think football has that x factor that makes it compelling in relegation and multiple cups on offer. As long as fans keep the super
league stuff at bay it will continue to be interesting I do think smaller clubs can still have their day of glory.

They need to sort out the ffp and multi club rules though chelsea are just making a mockery of the system right now with their excessive buying

But I totally agree that on field players look increasingly like soldiers and individual creativity and moment of brilliance goal scoring in many sports has been on a steady decline.
