imo theres such a big difference in football 10-15 years ago and now.back then there were so many great players and games,not to mention the fans.today its all bullshit and ridiciolous.
It started to become a business when Havelange took over, and then Blatter took it to a whole new level... now it's all about money, and the drama/bullshit that leads to more money. Most "football fans" today don't care about football as much as they care for the circus around topics like "Messi vs CR7", the antics of managers like Mou or LvG, the joke awards like Balon d'Or, etc.
Over the last 25 years, pretty much the only positive side in the evolution of the sport is that it has become popular in countries where it was insignificant.
