Football is fucking dull now compared to around the turn of the century and before. Most are fucking robots at the expense of natural flair.
It's a greater problem with football being a global game now and there's been no bigger victim than international football. In the 80s/90s you barely saw any footballers from other countries playing for your club and international tournaments were genuinely exciting to watch as you had all of the contrasting styles to look forward to. Whether it be the ruthless efficiency of the Germans, the catenaccio of the Italians, the total football of Holland, the samba flair of Brazil with their free kick ability or just the cynical cunts that made up the other South American nations outside of the individual brilliance of Argentina.
It's all a mishmash of the same shit now with the game totally saturated and consumed by capitalism.
