There’s no thrill like the thrill of the new…
9.沒有新的興奮點
You’d have to have a heart of stone not to enjoy the way people in America have embraced the World Cup, or to be inspired by Costa Rica toppling three previous winners and then battling on with 10 men to pinch it against Greece. Football is just more exciting when it’s not the same old teams winning all the time. Is it time for the Premier League to introduce some sort of draft system or wealth redistribution to try to level the playing field a bit? Or have we all just accepted that the spending power of the big four or five guarantees their dominance in perpetuity?
你必須鐵石心腸,不去喜歡美洲人喜歡世界杯的方式,或者僅僅只是被哥斯達黎加的屌絲逆襲精神所鼓舞(哥斯達黎加三戰全勝,憑借10人還擊敗了希臘)。當傳統強隊輸球,屌絲球隊逆襲,足球才展現出了它的魅力。對于英超聯賽來說,是時候引進某種新的制度或者通過財富的重新分配來使比賽更加公平的競爭。難道我們是否更愿意接受四五個豪門俱樂部永遠統治英超聯賽的事實?
