Football has become very boring to watch. It's like painting by numbers or constructing an IKEA wardrobe. You have to do it to a pattern that you can't deviate from.
Bring back Gazza.
 
I think it's true that the game is more defensive and therefore dull now. Defences are super organised but I think refs also play a part. The amount of times in these internationals that a promising move ends in a soft free kick given to the defending team is unreal. It's generally forgotten about because it's not a penalty or red card type decision, but when you tot it all up it certainly makes a bit difference to a game. I'd love to see the game lean towards giving attackers the benefit of the doubt rather than defenders or goalkeepers.

Yeah like the World Cup.
 
Nations League is ****.
I’m planning on starting the Countries’ Cup.
I’m starting a crowdfunding virtual crypto bit-thing investment opportunity
There’ll be giants at half time and fans travelling to games in the back of rented vans
Who’s in?!

It's time they made the goals bigger too, such an easy thing to do. Would up the goal percentage and lead to more attacking play, long shots etc.
 
How does Jamie Redknapp have a punditry job? Carragher just asked him a straight forward question and he struggled to answer it about shape of the team. He was also asked a question about one right back and spent the time talking about the other one instead.

He’s never spat at a girl from his car window.

How does Carragher have a punditry job? Scum Scouse ****.

Redknapp believes his own publicity.

I was talking more about him doing the job he is paid to do rather than his off-screen antics.

Carragher was never going to be sacked because his colleagues all came out publically supporting him leaving Sky with a problem of losing most of their on-screen PL talent. They just suspended him until the end of the season to let things cool off.
