Why don't you explain how in your opinion the game hasn't changed?  Some clubs are paying more to buy a single player than many clubs spend on their entire squad.   Clubs with excellent academies produce quality players but can't retain them because of the money offered by a select few.  There were only 13 foreign players in the Premier League when it started in 1992,  there are now more foreign players in the Premier League than any other league in the world. Foreign ownership of clubs has risen dramatically and with that different ways of looking at the game have emerged. It's viewed as more of a business and clubs are viewed as franchises.  Now, in your opinion that may have improved the game and you're entitled to your opinion but to deny that it hasn't changed the game from what it was is a complete load of BS.
