"Impossible! A decade ago, internet addiction; a decade later, it became esports. No one can foresee the future, and no one has the right to decide who must choose football or something else."
"It is us who should strive! It is those of us working in the football industry!"
"The league promotes offensiveness, implements fairness, making matches more exciting. Improve football in ways everyone desires, increase more goals, produce more stars, create more stories between players, clubs, and fans."
"Players should be responsible for their words and actions in public and shouldn't always spread negative news to society, nor should they critique matters of other countries and regions without knowledge."
"More care for the elderly, more charity work, more promotion of football, more interaction with children and fans. Be more sincere with clubs and teammates, not just earning money from them. Leave club funds when departing. More bonding with teammates, make football more than just football. Only stories with blood, flesh, genuine emotion attract readers! The same goes for fans."
"Clubs must also invest heavily in youth training, develop their market well. Have feelings for players, don't treat them as exchangeable objects. Value fans' voices, don't treat them as crops waiting to be harvested. Maintain a desire for honor, don't slack off, and never engage in match-fixing!"
"So many changes await us to make, and we clearly have so many things we can do. Why are we now demanding things from fans? Hostile to other sports?"
"Doing well oneself is the most important. When football becomes the most interesting, emotional, and popular sport in the world, how could it not be loved by more people?"
"These are not even conflicting! I'd certainly love to see my fans having songs they like, movies they enjoy, because I also wish my music and movie fans would like watching my matches, supporting my team!"
"Football is just football. But this is what I love and am engaged in!"
