FTSE 100? Yeah it’s shit because the companies that form it are pretty outdated and have either suffered from the effects of the pandemic or have had no upside from it. And theres some Brexit effects in there. For contrast look at the s&p500 or Nasdaq.
But - You don’t pick your own shares. You don’t spend any time looking at shares. You pay a small fee to others to do that for you so that risk and return is balanced to give you the best chance of getting what you need.
