Agree with all that. There's so much to hate about #Modernfootball and relatively little to like. I don't know that I'd fall in love with the game if I was a kid today. It was such a beautifully simple sport.
Boston Legacy just drilled full-squad corner and free kick drills in pregame. #modernfootball
Bookings for celebrations are one of the truly lousy aspects of #modernfootball The only possible exception is if they're deliberately looking to rile up opposition supporters, but even that's debatable. Like VAR ruining goal celebrations, all the joy is being sucked out of the game.
VAR, like so many aspects of #modernfootball , is about money. They need us to buy into the illusion that it makes things better. Trouble is most of us can see the king is in the all together!
You posted & I read it before I saw the goal on my stream. ๐ #modernfootball
You can't broadcast "atmosphere" if the people who create it can no longer afford the stands.
Pricing out legacy fans destroys the foundation of the product.

Pep keeps reprogramming Cherki. ๐ซ๐ท
Heโs drifting closer to De Bruyneโฆ but noโthatโs not it.
You donโt need to be perfect.
Be the filthy, fantasy-only player.
Thatโs your magic. ๐ฅบโจ

There are many bad things about #modernfootball A small and recent total abomination is presenting team selections in numerical order.
Qatar lost 1-2 against UAE in the second tier of the Belgian league yesterday. #modernfootball
I can live with winning cups not the league. It suits my personality I think! I can't live with #modernfootball where everything is about the bottom line.
One of the things I used to love about going to football was the reassuring rhythm of home games alternate Saturdays at 3pm.

Watching and enjoying these #AngelCityFC kickoffs, deliberately kicking the ball out of bounds directly on the kickoff deep into their attacking third. I guess they don't want to surrender possession in zone 2. #nwsl #tacticaltrend #pressing #instyle #modernfootball
There are an awful lot of things that frustrate me about #modernfootball The total lack of accountability of refs is one of them. I saw what Keith Hackett said about the decision against Fulham. Sounds like the Utd game was bent. As for our experience today, it shouldn't be like that.
Plenty aiming just to survive for the money. #modernfootball

In the world of #modernfootball that becomes ever less likely. The owners are no longer successful local businessmen who were at least a bit like us. Their motivations are not ours. Legacy fans in particular are a bloody nuisance, but as covid showed an unfortunate necessity.
The degree to which #modernfootball sucks is quite something.

Which is precisely why I said I wasn't applying that criticism to you ๐คท Sky and even the Beeb are always bigging up the product and studiously ignoring the many issues that blight #modernfootball

That said there are plenty of elements of #modernfootball that suck, VAR top of the list. Players are always players tho, good and bad.
