I think he’s right. It isn’t entertaining. Sometimes it reminds

me of basketball. You can’t properly tackle anymore, the offside rule (well where do you start, f****d if I understand it).

I agree that football in the past also had its boring games but compared with modern day it was definitely more exciting.
