There are a lot of people here in the U.S. who refuse to even give football (soccer) a chance because of either their ignorance or stubbornness. If it's not for you then fine then just ignore it. Like ive always said you cant dispute TASTE. But no need to try and stigmatize and hate on it every chance you get.

They claim it lacks scoring YET they're the same people who watch baseball and hockey and love a "pitching duel" that ends in a 1-1 going into extra inning.


Lets stop acting like a 21-14 NFL football game isnt really a 3-2 score.

If you got Direct TV just get the sports pack and you will get all the soccer Chanels you can watch all the leagues and you can decide which style of play you prefer EPL is probably gonna be the easiest for new watchers to get into IMO ..like the other said LA Liga has really like 2 great teams and the best players areon either team and Series A fell off i .. bundesliga the German league is mad entertaining

And alot of the time, the people who say this, only watch football when its international tournament time and when basketball season is over, which really is the worst time to try and get into soccer, because youre more likely to get shytty 0-0 tactical battles then you do if you watch from August to May.

Was there even a goal in these videos?

All I see is some guy tap-dancing for his white audience and not passing when he's supposed to.



Lionel Messi on the other hand...

Not at all. The midfield of Spain is essentially Barcelona + Xabi Alonso (who plays for Real Madrid).

Madrid aren't as possession based. Their main m.o. is counter attacking for example this first goal, where the move starts near their own 18-yd box:

Granted behind Barcelona in terms of passes attempted is Real Madrid in La Liga but this past season their counter attacks are what stood out the most.

Ronaldo So they like to "get out and run" to use a basketball term. The Spanish National team is so precise though

Theres only Barca play that way and Barca do it better. But there are teams that do play attractive football, but not the complex way the Spanish NT/Barca do, everyone else is atleast 3-5-10 years away from playin like how they do.

LOL...there are so many characters. Just watch whatever game is televised next season. Im sure you will see a team that catches your eye and then you can go online and catch all their matches.

Im an Arsenal fan. Been one for years. Had the great times....but now we arent really known for winning too much. We are always in the hunt though...just hard to keep up with the big spenders. But as far as football goes, we play a style thats easy on the eye, lots of possesion, nice little 1,2s....classy finishing....and are involved in every competition every year.

Might look into Arsenal. I don't want a horrible team but I don't want a team like the Yankees either.

Barca put the structure in place back in 93 and it generally takes when you overhaul the youth sector at your club/country it takes about 10-15 years to see the fruits of the labour. Plus Barca have been playin the 433/adapted 343 since the late 80's

Then may I interest you in the team owned by the Red Sox?

I'll admit a lot of times thats when i watch the most soccer because i dont have the packages on my cable subscription.

But at the same time i pretty much watch soccer every sunday (or at least every other sunday) when i visit my cousin. Me and her husband just open a few beers and watch either european leagues or some of the other tournaments like concacaf

 

[606onit]

when does the EPL start? I'm starting to get into this shyt more too.....

It go good with that L_ _ _ Pack

 

[posterchild336]

Is there style similar to how the Spanish Nationl team played in the Euro Cup?

barcelona...the spain team is basically barca with a couple of real madrid and epl players. They have chemistry and thats why they play so well together.

I know but thats why i said up and coming messi is establish as the worlds best, this guy is what brazil is banking on for there future..he actually does score alot, he is the leagues top scorer, was the jr world cups top scorer, and he scored the goal of the year for 2011 youtube it. I watched messi live weekend before last, no doubt he is unbelievable, but this guy is going to be problems he is only like 20 and barca offered over 80 mil euros transfer fee and it was turned down.
