*sigh* bored of this...in fact I'm bored of football in general. Same ol same ol. Think I'm gonna take an extended break...or start watching lower leagues.
Actually, I beg to differ.
It is not quite 'same ol, same ol'.
For one thing, there are fascinating tactical battles - or a sort unknown to the Premiership before now - between a new generation of continent classy managers, (Mr Conte, Mr Guardiola, Mr Klopp, for example, - and the older hands, Mr Wenger, and the tarnished but still effective Mr Mourinho), who, themselves, - especially those who have recently come to the Premiership - have come to belatedly realise that they have still more to learn to blend continental sophistication seamlessly with the 'traditional' elements of the English game.
They have brought much to the Premiership, yet they still have to learn how to adapt to its specific challenges.
The evolution of their tactical understanding is extraordinarily interesting, at an intellectual level.
And the other story - which will, historically prove to be
the story of 2016 (despite Leicester's success in winning the Premiership) - and which will rock the game from top to bottom - and change it, too, as a consequence - is the gradually unfolding series of sexual abuse scandals, the details of which are only slowly seeping out.
