Imagine victor wembanyama as a goalie though...
Insanely large 5-hole and he’ll have serious issues on low shots
Just trying to find you a safe space to sort out your confusion
You don’t have to take my word for it. Cross the Atlantic and be laughed out of a pub yourself

If you have a crush on me though we can take it elsewhere

I definitely value the opinion of this breed of retard :lol:

Do you think the US would benefit from having our best athletes be given dedicated soccer coaching and training from the time they could walk?
Sure

But that applies to everyone

Including the non-athletic freaks that actually dominate the modern sport

Though I guess we can focus development targeting the less impactful

Like a retarded Pareto principle

They were arse and seeing ghosts because Poch got the tactics all wrong to open the match and Belgium knew everything we were doing.

I don't think he got much in the second half right but there was nothing about opening tactics that excuse that degree of poor execution. It was the same press Garcia's been running to open games for years. They did exactly what we knew they would do

Players don't see ghosts that easily unless it's in their own heads
Do you think it wise for the Federation to build its development philosophy around an n of 1 or just focus on pulling the obvious levers we all know would actually make a difference

"We" being the lofty elite who actually follow the sport, of course
Yeah. Turns out it's not particularly viable unless you're an exceptionally rare case

And the son of an EPL regular

Unfortunately that's a small n

Just because we had more of the ball when we were chasing the game, doesn't mean he made the correct adjustments
What are the correct adjustments when everyone in the XI has the yips and shits their pants every other touch

The players were a level of arse tonight that makes tactics moot

You clearly think Americans are genetically inferior
Nah. You’re just fundamentally confused about the importance of raw athleticism in the game and what’s actually holding the country back from joining the ranks of the powers

Freak athletes not playing the sport ain’t it, unfortunately. Would be nice if it were tho

The list of in-prime managers who are willing to take 4 years off from their club careers to coach an afterthought national team is not particularly large. It's kind of wild we got him for 2 years and he would even consider more

Since we're likely to host the 2028 Copa America, a middle ground is we give him another 4 year contract and make the 2030 call based off of it
Easily drunk and laughing for no reason is a combo that goes well
quote:

then why are you, presumably an American, on an American website talking about the sport with Americans yet not calling it by the common American name
Because

1. It's the name of the sport as said aloud by 95% of the associated media I consume

2. I assume Americans aren't retarded and can use context clues to put things together

It could just be an Aggy thing, I don't know. But it's either way it's sad!
quote:

what is the most common name for the sport in this country?
Soccer

What other questions do you have for me
quote:

Why did you call the sport football?
Because it's the most common name for the sport globally

Next time do you need context clues to know what football I was talking about? I can accommodate to help you out
quote:

I told you two weeks ago I played the game for 10+ years growing up and love it
I've been worried about you

Have you sorted how added time works yet? Can drop my email if you need a hand
quote:

The discussion was if you took our athletes and changed the culture where our elite athletes aspired to be soccer players what would happen
This is a macro cultural argument that at its core has nothing to do with athleticism

Global star composition makes clear that if said shift happened, the physique of the USMNT would still be far closer to that of the GOAT (midget) than the lab grown athlete you have in your head

This is sooooo basic
Not being a retard or oblivious to basic realities regarding the sport doesn’t make me a savant

It just makes me not a retard

Best of luck trying to understand it tho
quote:

Yet you think somehow athleticism population and desire go completely out the window and Americans are genetically inferior for soccer.
The US hasn’t lost a game on account of athleticism in decades. If you were familiar with our standing in the sport, you’d know we are regarded as one of the more athletic teams. It loses due to relative lack of technical skill

You’re surely aware of that, right? Cause this is basic

So why the confused manifesto above?
