Like other people have said, you have to be more picky with what you consume content wise. Find out what you actually enjoy. Personally, I enjoy certain podcasts that give off friends vibes and I enjoy some of Sky’s MNF-type coverage. So I ignore almost everything else. This sub, twitter, a lot of it takes itself way too seriously. Look at how many people get downvoted on this subreddit when you try and give an opinion. Just literally remove all care from places like this and twitter and your enjoyment of the sport will be found again.

Sick of hearing about lets wait and see for Man City, they started breaking the rules 14 years ago in 2009. Everyone questioned them then as well so lets not pretend its not an entire shitshow.

Because by giving them the full punishment when they’ve co-operated, it encourages future clubs to not co-operate. Simple as that.

He definitely had a bad patch in previous years when the injuries were picking up, but overall he’s a decent defender who has world class playmaking from wide positions and can also shoot. It’s good that he at Liverpool, playing under a manager who is good enough to make use of his pretty unique skillset. Maybe one day we’ll have an England manager who can do the same.

Very weird to see someone systematically devalue how unique it is to have 4.5 professional football leagues all connected and relevant in the same country. How it helps in terms of youth academies, playing time, football fandom. The Premier League has intrinsic value based on the dream that a club in League 2 over 10 years can get it all right and one day make it to the heights of the Premier League. This sort of thinking is how we get the Super League, one of the most soulless propositions ever the grace the game of football.

He’s 81 years old, this is bad for literally everyone involved.

La Liga had two of the greatest players of all time at their peak at the biggest Spanish teams for 9 years (more if we include just Messi). In those 9 years, a Spanish team won the CL 5 times, including a couple more CL final appearances from a 3rd La Liga team. Spanish is also a language spoken by half a billion people. Just as Serie A was once the league to watch in Europe, La Liga had everything to become that but it felt like they didn’t even try until it was too late. The Premier League took advantage of this and we are we where are today. The Super League is not a solution for the incompetence of your league. Off you fuck.

Cole Palmer is more unique of a player and has something that a lot of teams could do with. Gordon is direct and is obviously a good wide player but wouldn’t be that hard for Newcastle to replace or even improve on.

it’s not corruption towards city specifically (well it might be but I won’t die on that hill) but there is definitely some level of corruption going on. every week there is a call that is painful to watch, sometimes more than one. I’m a neutral, I don’t support anyone in the league, but it is genuinely making it hard to watch. The quality of player is not making up for the impact VAR is having on results.
