probably not

he was at a higher level than players during his era, but the game has evolved significantly since the 1960's

average weeb take

the ability to use telekinesis if I have exactly $274.73 in my bank account

beautiful assist from him now

Pele just got lucky to have a good team and weak competition

You can argue that he is the most successful world cup player, but GOAT soccer player is not reasonable imo

in all statistics he is far behind Messi, and if you look at his gameplay it's unimpressive. He was great for his time but the sport has evolved

He slid forward into alvarez with his feet outstretched

stopped a goal scoring opportunity with his body, no contact made on the ball

it's a bit of a coin toss on whether or not it's called generally but I can understand the reasoning

thank you i try to keep a good vocabulary on this forum

poor haaland is getting dragged through the dirt this WC just because his teammates were too pooshit to qualify

he said goat midfielder

messi does not play midfield

bandwagon fans who's teams went out early

same with Morocco

8/10 roster pretty good for ascension tbh

100T >> NRG so it’s not really a fair comment to make yet

We’ll see how good NRG is once the season starts though

They should be good since they just basically bought optic and made it a little worse

Just amazed how you found out a way to squeeze politics into this

Not that I just think that the quality of goals should matter

a single penalty shot being worth the same amount as an insane long range strike is a little frustrating to me

my changes could be the exact same thing just 1, 0.5, and 0.25 and I wouldn't really care, I just didn't want to include decimals

was talking about the Wales USA game ngl

So mad about regional dialects and for what

I agree that soccer is very interesting however games that are tied 1-1 bc of a penalty shot or something are pretty boring

it would definitely not be pointless

one could argue that it would make soccer worse (i've played the game a lot but i'm not an expert so idk exactly the implications this change would have)

however it would definitely shift how the game is playe

unrelated but I think that soccer should steal basketball's scoring system

outside of the penalty box = 3 points
inside of the penalty box = 2 points
penalty kick = 1 point but you take 2

would make the game more interesting imo

meta would no longer be get into the box and try to force a penalty

this anime season is insane

the second bleach starts slowing down chainsaw man starts speeding up

peak every week

common minnesota W

neither are in contention

Babytron better than both

I haven’t watched past part 5 yet but

5 > 2 > 4 > 3 > 1

Hehehe

Soccer >> Football

lmao

England strat: flop hard, take penalty kick, pass around a little, fail to get into the box and return possession to USA

it is an anime reference.

Cheesy sports anime about finding Japan a star striker, project + facilities are called "blue lock"

the anime is a horribly inaccurate view of how any aspects of the sport works, but it's pretty entertaining tbh

correct prediction from rickyindian

England in fact did not win

corner kick simulator rn

USA needs blue lock project bro we need a striker

bro USA cannot finish man

so many shots on goal and like 0 actually would make it

probably going to be a draw tbh

coco-berry redbull

thank you brother it's much appreciated

I am VLR.gg's best center defensive midfielder

I was on my town's second best travel team's B team when i was like 11 😎😎😎

it is fcking cold outside and indoor fields are always booked + expensive

I have played it once it's actually pretty fun

unfortunately in USA at least the vast majority of people have never heard of it

custom game maker as in like custom 5v5's or individual servers like what's in CSGO

Not many people in the USA care much about soccer

it's one of the biggest sports for children grades K-6, but once kids start moving to junior high and high school they tend to switch to different sports.

The sports people care the most about in high school and beyond are Basketball, Baseball, and American Football. Probably 85% of people that played Soccer when they were younger switch to either those 3 sports or more minor ones like Track and Field or Wrestling

There simply isn't enough interest in the sport especially at a collegiate or professional level.

If someone is an amazing forward because they are extremely fast and good at finding openings, those skills are immediately transferrable to a position such as Wide Receiver in American Football, and the scholarship opportunities, popularity in school, and professional money possibilities are unbelievably higher.

Lmaoo

The new c9 is better. It needed an upgrade

Optic’s 2 best players left and the new team is stuck with s0m🤣

Most olympic medals btw

They ain’t top 3 they’re top 1

Are you mad bc your favorite team didn’t even make franchising?

You will see

Language barrier as in multiple people that don’t speak english as their first language

Sen has a huge language barrier and has to make a new system

NRG is Optic but objectively worse

And saying that C9 is just the old roster with Yay and Zellsis is ignoring the fact that Mitch and Curry SUCKED and the team was still decent

Saying 100T is better is reasonable though

C9B at 4th is crazy

very interesting thread
