The FOOTBALL thread

[Cofiliano]

Yep, first game.

[Mikal]

You probably suck so bad in football, that you just cant keep your frustration for yourself.

Football is the most complexed and imagined game and yet simple, in the world, that's why its the most popular game in the world. Also, football is not just a sport, its way beyond the term 'sport', football is  passion, emotion, way of life, unlike rest of the sports. Most nations mentality is based on football, its in their blood, it represents all of us by the club or nation that we support.

No man, I used to play for my schools football team, but then I realised how unbelievably shit the sport really was, the only thing football represents is men chasing each others round like panzies and fans in the stadium wanting to find any reason possible to brawl like animals, football players really have no real skill, they just constantly pass the ball and get the odd one in the net once every half an hour, to be honest the only real skill of football players is acting, when they are rolling round the floor with a 'broken' ankle like a baby having a tantrum. I think I've said all I need here, I'de love to see this topic locked because it's just taking up space. 

 :ps: I hate the guts of people who talk about football 24/7 and say "Oh WE need to win this, bla bla bla" whered the WE come from? Do you play for the freaking team? Nooooo!
I guess the main reason I'm here shitting on football is because I was fed up of dickheads in school and college not shutting up about the rubbish sport.

Your text ... tl;dr , I suppose it's just a combo of unrealistic bullshit jackwag. And your laughter-smiley just made it worse. Oh and .. "I'd*"

The we comes instantly when you feel for and with your team because as soon as you've become a real fan, you're as well part of the team, in a passive way. And now calm down and stop picking useless issues (those aren't even issues) because we don't fuck you up for following the Cardiff faggot rugby team either, do we?

Realy bro? What do rugby players do differently? Pass the ball run around like idiots until someone tackles you.

[Trey_Johnson]

Isn't Chelsea vs Man City today?

:O realy?


No I checked, it's tomorow. Arsenal are playing tomorow against Everton aswell.. gonna be a tough match, Everton has been playing good lately. Hopefully Arsenal can win , and also that chelsea will lose to city.. then there will be a 6p gap

Mikal, please stop now. You obviously don't know what you're talking about and quite frankly you're coming across as an idiot. Football is not a "shit" sport and your pathetic attempt at describing it was embarassing.

I've played both rugby and football for different clubs, and I can tell you right now that rugby is the more straightforward game. Sure, the rules are a little more complex, but once you get your head around them and learn them well, it's fine. I played both on the wing and in second row. In both positions I knew my responsibility well. For a winger speed and the ability to catch the ball whilst running with the rest of the line is pretty much all you need. Second row is a little bit more demanding as you need strength in the scrum and you'll be doing a lot of running about the pitch.

Football is a tougher sport. Vision, ball control, passing, acceleration and speed, finishing, positioning, strength and many more attributes are key factors for practically every single position - I know these elements are also present within rugby, but I find it much easier to pass and control a ball with my hands compared to my feet. For the majority of my time playing for my old Sunday League club I was a centre back, but I also occasionally played on the wing and in central midfield.

Trust me, from a total unbiased point of view, (I love both the sports) football is a harder sport to play competetively.

football players really have no real skill, they just constantly pass the ball and get the odd one in the net once every half an hour

Your ignorance is unbelievable. I could show you countless examples that would tear your 'argument' to shreds, but I'll just show you a little bit of genius from the legend Dennis Bergkamp.

Dennis Bergkamp goal vs Newcastle 2002 (no sound)

to be honest the only real skill of football players is acting, when they are rolling round the floor with a 'broken' ankle like a baby having a tantrum.

Oh please. There is diving and cheating in every single sport. Just because Football is the most popular sport on the planet, don't result to making bullshit claims like that.

I understand players like Busquets, Ronaldo and (increasingly and frustratingly more lately) Bale dive quite a lot, but serious and sometimes horrific injuries do occur.

There is a clear-cut reason as to why players train on their ability to tackle, and it's because unfortunately, incidents like Shawcross' tackle on Aaron Ramsey happen from time to time.


I'm done. There's nothing substantial what so ever in your argument. It's just your completely foolish on a sport that you probably can't play to save your life.

No I checked, it's tomorow. Arsenal are playing tomorow against Everton aswell.. gonna be a tough match, Everton has been playing good lately. Hopefully Arsenal can win , and also that chelsea will lose to city.. then there will be a 6p gap

I wouldn't say Everton have been playing that good. Sure, they picked up victories against Chelsea and Tottenham, but they're both sides that haven't been playing particularly well as of late. We should, and more importantly need to beat them.

That's not a goal, there's a word for it. Rape.

Oh and I found out more good news, after the match vs man city, chelsea are versus the spurs This is our chance to rush forward.

[Thomas_A]

Chelsea vs. Manchester City will be quite interesting to see, to be honest, considering Chelsea's previous matches, I think they will take the victory, but as Arsenal fan, I would love to see ManC victory or at least a tie.
Arsenal vs. Everton..will be expecting a tough match at some point, but Im sure Arsenal is currently playing really well, so I think Everton should be a problem for them. Hoping to see Oxlade Chamberlain score finally.

It will be a close game.

Arsenal vs. Everton..will be expecting a tough match at some point, but Im sure Arsenal is currently playing really well, so I think Everton should be a problem for them. Hoping to see Oxlade Chamberlain score finally.

We should beat them. As I said, I know they picked up some big points recently against Chelsea and Spurs, but both teams haven't been on form. I will be so disappointed if we slip up now.

Also, Chamberlain has already scored - he netted in two when we thrashed Blackburn 7-1.

Isn't Chelsea vs Man City today?

Tomorrow. Can't wait..

[jinjifliaktor]

Tomorrow. Can't wait..

Chelsea will crush you. 

[Rick.]

Chelsea will crush you. 

Ok. We will crush you too when we play you before we win the title.

Atleast rugby players don't cry like a b!tch at the slightest nudge...

We? Do you play for them? Now that is what I hate.

[Cofiliano]

 Yes, WE. If you read my reply closly you woulds understand the quote"emotion, passion, peoples mentality". Tomorrow in the derby I posted about, WE are playing against our arch city rivals, thats cause we are all part of the club that we support, thats the reaison why football is not just a sport, its a term  above sport, its a way of life, I love my club as much as my family member, more then any girl  I had in m life, as much as i love her, cause everything in life passes, but love for your club doesnt, its something you were raised with when you were a child, its part of your haritage, something that isnt changable during your life, unlike almost everything else. And all people that were raised in the same way, that support the same club specially by singing and giving support to your team on the stadium, we are all one big family on the stands,  it is determent by  your character, your origins, your personality. As a poet said once"One club is big, as big as its fans are", so yeah, fucking WE. Hope you understand now, if not, go play pokemon, cause that isnt a "pussy game".
