I wish Americans would watch this before talking their shit about how "they would dominate soccer if their best athletes didn't play other sports." No American national team has ever come close to this level of fluidity.


@DaB34090386 Buddy, the USA dominates the world in basketball every year lmfao Please stop speaking


So Belgium beat the US at a kids game. Do you have one of these? Of course you don’t .







Haaland is what Americans mean when we say our bigger, stronger, faster athletes play other sports instead of soccer but if they focused on it they’d be elite.



What you don't realize is that the purported athleticism everyone thinks about, isn't advantageous in soccer. Running a 4.3 40 means nothing. A 40in vertical means nothing. Oh your fast and quick? Congrats. You're not running in a straight line. Can you sprint with a ball and cut on a dime while maintaining control of the ball? How's your first touch? How's your technique? Can you play a full 90 min. tactically and especially late in the game with an empty tank? How's your vision? Shooting technique? Can you create space for your own shot? The ball moves faster than any player. There are a ton of freak athletes that have played soccer. And guess what? Many of them became nothing because they didn't have the required skills to push to the next level. The top guys you're seeing playing at the highest level are their because they have all these traits. Soccer isn't the NFL where you locate a random 6'4 300lb nigerian on steroids that's a freak athlete and draft him into the NFL with a pro contract. You realize that someone like Messi has just as good of athletcism as someone like Lebron, right? He's just not 6'8 and his height is actually beneficial to the game. There's a reason why most tall people go play basketball and not soccer. Jokic grew up playing and loving soccer. He wouldn't last a minute on the field, but in the NBA he's the best player and the best player in the world.



"oh our best athletes don't play the sport, that's why we suck" No, you silly cunts, that's not it. The two best international teams ever, in terms of success, are Spain 08-12 and the current Argentina team. Neither of which have elite athletes or even close to it.
