Don’t play football so much

The football fan does not like changes. The rules, the usual ones and if something has to be modified, let them be nuances. Tournaments, recognizable format, please.

The closed Super League, which is now in the process of being reformulated to appear less elitist, has reappeared its head, amidst enormous scandal. UEFA has announced a Champions League from 2024 so strange that it is harder to understand than cricket.

Let us implore: do not play football so impudently, we are not going to lose our enthusiasm.
