It’s everywhere. From images, to videos, to Tiktoks, to adverts … I’m over saturated with opinions, replays, player ratings, hyperbole and the like.

There’s only so much you can take.

Example 1. The Newcastle goal vervus Arsenal. Never ending discussions on the decision. The hyperbolic nature of the punditry. The uneven opinions of the same people.

Example 2. Handball against Newcastle. Hundreds of videos all moaning, complaining over and over again. The same pundits complaining and restarting their opinion.

And now the new one - the ref not giving Man City an advantage in the Tottenham game. It starts all over again. The videos, the complaining, the shouting Tiktoks…

I just don’t care anymore.

Rational discussions are gone, replaced with hyperbole and drama.

It’s too much. I can’t watch any football related content anymore.

The only thing to do is to shut it all out but the commentary is just as bad.

    Remember that the pundits are there purely to draw attention. It’s why you get ex players like Paul Merson and Steve Nicol wittering on about nonsense. They are being paid to have a bad take because bad takes get social media clicks.

    And the more it is done the more others do it. I understand why you’re tired.
