There was a book written by a couple Americans who specialized in analytics a few years ago that predicted an England decline and a Japanese/American ascension in world soccer in the kinda near future. England has good players, no great players, no creative players. It’s an era where middling European nations have

Now playing

Don’t be Mr. Excuse, “Ah man the wind is crazy”

And then your girlfriend Rosie Perez went on Jeopardy.....

I know some of these stories are total bullshit.

England you got one sport. One sport you (can?)provide world relevant athletes in. Just one, and you are 2nd class at best at the one thing you do.

Tried for 30 seconds couldn’t think of white American player to reference

He does that because he can’t beat players off the dribble, he’s a more boring Chauncey Billups

Nah.

Poor Enes Kanter, can’t even make fake lists of the best young world players.

Goes to show what mental pressure can do to a player and team. Argentina had chances to be brilliant against Chile but Messi and others didn’t deliver one moment. Against the USA with similiar (albeit more) chances they delivered. No pressure against opponent they rightfully didn’t fear as much as Chile. Sucks that

Put me in the “genius prank that ended up not being that funny to actually listen to” camp

Group stage is played even more conservatively. Soccer Fever, catch it.

Is lie

Does this mean England has been relegated? That’s how you solve the American Soccer problem!

Hmmm,Putin rounds up his ninja task force to be Soccer hooligans who are sent to France to mess specifically with English fans a week before a historic referendum in England, driven by an anti-immigrant anti-Eastern European sentiment, so that the major headlines in England leading up to the Brexit vote are 100% about

To be fair, all the best players in this analogy already play for England, which in real soccer we know just isn’t fucking true.

That’s Windy

Shut up

All the pre-game fellas out here doing some spin.

Fun read, but don’t say player x doesn’t have Devin Booker’s athleticism, you have Devin Booker’s athleticism. I do, we all do.
