Griezmann doesn't have the technical ability to see Pogba, Mbappe, Kante, Big Body, or Giroud. He's like Alexis Sanchez and Lacazette to me.
I wish Dembele got his shyt together because he's the missing piece to get that guy out of the lineup.

Well he is an honorary UruguayanHate the way Griezman celebrates his goals like he's a South American with tekkers. he needs to know his place. smh
Mans celebrates and dances like he's R9, R10 or Robinho when he plays more similar to Thomas Mueller.He needs to celebrate appropriately by just handing the ball to the referee and shaking his hand and maybe a wave or two to the crowd. be humble

Black folks in Montreal(regardless of economic class) tend to favour basketball and American football due to the influence of American media, although you will see alot of recent African immigrants and thier offspring playing football.
We also have alot of Italians, Greeks, Portuguese, Algerians, Moroccans, and Tunisians and they tend be football first when it comes to sports. They don't have the same passion for football that their relatives back home have though, a large chunk of them are middle class and don't have the same hunger to make it to the professional ranks.
I wouldn't say Haitians have bad reputation, but alot of the gangs in Montreal are Haitian. Alot of the poor areas in Montreal like St-Michel and Montreal-Nord have significant Haitian populations, but most of them still prefer basketball over football. Alot of the English speaking Carribean population lives in poverty too, but they also prefer basketball for the most part.
Football is growing in Canada, but it's still behind hockey, American football, and basketball in terms of popularity. Alot of white Franco and Anglo Canadians play football as kids but lose interest in it as they get older.
Also, IDK if I’d say Football is only for the poor outside NA.
Western Europe has a plethora of academies for kids who have the funds and abilities to play the game.
If you have Nigerian Americans making it to the NBA (Okafors, Adebayo, etc) or the NFL, why wouldn’t they have the same drive to make it to a decent club in Europe?
Colombia vs Argentina at 7

there are so many games between this and basketball, Im just going to focus on Copa America/Oro and the euros
When it comes to American sports, it makes sense that they succeed since it's their specialty, with all the infrastructures available and the local sport CULTURE (very important). Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but basketball and American football are more and more suburban sports from what I've read (for example, US football requires a lot of money for the equipment). So I just can't imagine a top tier young Nigerian American athlete choosing football above US football or basketball. But again I may be wrong.
