Is Premier League Boring?



There’s zero competition outside of a few teams who have been up there for about 25 years (and actually it wasn’t much more competitive before that).

If you have a good player they’re going to leave and join one of those teams. If they’re good, not great there’s a good chance a Saudi club will come in for them on silly money.

The vogue play style is one that needs really good players to play but is also incredibly boring to watch.

Things like diving, making a meal out of any contact and timewasting have become accepted and encouraged parts of the game, whilst making a “big tackle” is likely called a foul fair or not for being “dangerous”

VAR means you can’t go full “limbs” because something requiring zooming in to the individual pixel groups might rule the goal out AND it’s a tool to favour certain clubs.

Footballers have been in bubbles since the start of their academy days and have absolutely no concept of real life and they’re so well media trained that they just come across as lacking in personality and impossible to relate to.

Armchair “fans” behind computers and televisions in other continents are more valuable than STH’s and the communities most of these previously working class clubs have grown from.


TL;DR: it’s as soulless cash grab just like everything but the actual sport it’s pants to watch now too.

It’s just crap.
