Final chapter of the Premier League: When the game becomes a farce, how many souls are left in football?

When the Premier League ushered in the last round, the championship suspense that fans were looking forward to was not staged, and replaced by absurd and bizarre "performances". Amorin tried to rekindle his fighting spirit at Manchester United, but the purest passion, struggle and competitive spirit of football have long been crushed by a ruthless commercial machine. Nowadays, the noise outside the court is far more dazzling than the victory or defeat on the court.

Former FIFA president Blatt once said: "Football makes people crazy." But today, this sentence is like a harsh alarm. We are in a "post-ranking" Premier League era - the standings, winning and losing records and championship titles, which are no longer the only beliefs. Football has become a toy for emotions and a carrier of traffic. Victory and failure are all marked with price tags, and joy and loss have become commodities waiting to be sold.

Football is no longer based on facts, but is entangled by emotions. Anger is amplified, dissatisfaction becomes the norm, and tragedy is packaged as eye-catching gimmicks. Is this still a movement of the people? Or are the fans just spectators who are forced to buy tickets in the capital drama?

Look at Manchester United and Tottenham, these two former giants are now struggling with mediocrity. On the Deloitte Fortune list, Manchester United ranks fourth and Tottenham ranks ninth, but this "wealth" is absurd contrast with their decline on the court. Coach Amorin and Postkoglu, one is busy planning the future, the other is plagued by rumors, but no one really cares about how to play the last game well.

This is not a problem of tactics or players, but a complete collapse of club ambitions and culture. What they lost was not only the game, but also the definition of themselves.

Liverpool's Champion: Why did victory become bitter?

What else is more regrettable than Liverpool’s winning championship but unable to enjoy victory? The 2-2 draw with Arsenal is not only a mediocre final battle, but also a microcosm of modern football contradictions.

Liverpool's hero Trent Alexander Arnold was booed by his own fans at Anfield's home court. This is not betrayal, but a collective tragedy - the joy of victory has not yet dissipated, and harshness and expectation have come like a tide.

Evangelos Marinakis, the owner of Nottingham Forest, is a living specimen of modern football arrogance. Although the team performed far exceeding expectations this season, he was still furious about a draw and rushed into the court after the game, roaring as if victory was the only justice.

More ironic is that in order to meet UEFA regulations, he transferred the club ownership to the "Blind Eye Fund", an operation that unveiled the hypocrisy of modern football: while shouting fair competition, he used complex legal means to hold power firmly in his hands.

The Premier League is no longer a simple game of 22 players chasing the ball, but a huge media and emotional industry complex. The coach's frown, the fans' anger, and the disputes in the locker room are all infinitely magnified, analyzed and consumed.

Here, victory itself is no longer important, what is important is the story behind it; failure is not scary, what is scary is that no one cares about it. This is not the evolution of football, but the alienation - from a beautiful sport to a never-ending flow manufacturing machine.

As Gareth Farelli said, "Emotions have been commodified." We are no longer fans, but consumers. Football is no longer a game, but a product. This may be the biggest tragedy.
