Gonna be honest, I used to think less of soccer guys. Like, it felt a little arrogant and purposely countercultural, you understand the flows of the beautiful game and the rest of us don’t, you did a semester abroad and drink wine at lunch, la dee dah I still feel that way tbh

Who is the MOST overrated NBA player of all time?

Mauricio Pochettino said that ‘American sports reward losers’ when asked about the style of play in top European nations vs. in the U.S. 😯🇺🇸 QUESTION: “We know how England, France, Spain play… Players from countries with a strong tradition have a recognizable style. What is the style of the US team? What kind of football do the Americans want to play?” ANSWER: “Their culture is playful. They want to play. We told them, “Guys, playing soccer is one thing, competing is another.” They’re two completely different sports. They grow up in a culture of playing. Why? If you start in MLS and you haven’t won a game in three months and you’re at the bottom, what’s the consequence if there’s no promotion or relegation, no international competition? American sports reward losers! But soccer is different: if you reward those who don’t win… If you don’t have goals, you don’t fight. If I lose, what happens? Nothing. They just fire the coach. Also, the American player is disciplined. But with a sense of complacency that isn’t good in soccer. It took us a year and a half to change that mentality.” [EL PAIS]

The U.S. World Cup in one horrible photo:

What's your opinion on Golem?

This is how 89% Of the stadium looks in England Please shut up.

This world cup is going to expose the pure American arrogance. Qatar and Russia had virtually no football stadiums or facilities and built the best for the world cup, but the yanks thought just putting a tournament in NFL stadiums would be enough without laying proper grass etc

Top clubs in Europe going for Pool best talents like they're some mid table side is funny
