The current football It is still one of the sports that moves the most social mass, but we must recognize that has lost interest and that it has declined with respect to previous decades in which football was a greater spectacle.
The statements of Marcelo bielsa They are not far fetched, but rather offer the reality of current football, and the fact is that the load of matches added to the salary gaps have turned football into a real business that has completely forgotten the sporting essence that made it great. .
The biggest problem in current football
The biggest current problem in football is that, as well pointed out Bielsa, it has lost its sporting essence to give way to becoming a mere business, and that, in a sport, is a huge disaster. The match load is excessive and the players do not make it one hundred percent to most of the matches, which makes football lose its ability to put on a show.
Obviously, football is football and it will always give a show, but it is very true that interest in this sport is being lost and, in part, it is as a result of this fact. There are many competitions, too many even, for what football itself can support, and it shows when the players give their best.
There is also the issue of the excessive values ​​that surround modern football, in which, more and more, wages grow and, with it, the price to see the different sports competitions. Salaries should go down, the load of matches too, and football should be offered in a public regime or, at least, in part, and not through expensive subscriptions for different competitions that drive away fans more and more every day.
It is about going back to the origins to magnify and place football in its maximum splendor, where it once was and for which it managed to become the king of sports that today keeps it on the high level in which it is in terms of followers .
