Where is football going. There is no equilibrium type factor in football the richest clubs are at the top. You can practically predict the top 4 for the next 10 years unless another club is bought by a billionaire. There doesn't seem to be a way of bridging the gap; Managers make little difference (they can only be worse aka moyes) non top 4 players like when we had bale aren't quite good enough to bridge the gap. Even the refs seem to agree, we get decisions against lower finance teams but teams above seem to getting the rub of the the green aka manc / chavski.
The authorities have not made a rule change to improve football since the back pass rule. FPP is unlikely to affect anything due to the ease of loopholes.
So what we are left with is simple. We are what we are and unless something exceptional happens (like Manchester United in replacing the whole back-room staff) we can't expect much more.
Now I know people will point to the fact we have finished in the top 4 recent times but that was the exception.
This is a very loose and general point which I know could be more clearly emphasized and more comprehensively expressed but I hope you get the gist.
