So everyone. Got it.
>whenever Germany plays
>they win 7-1
Ha! You dont know shit. Italy could win a match by 8-0 with 90% possession and people will still spout bullshit like 'le boring busparking meme'. It's a fucking curse
Italy has beatiful display of defensive football, Juventus CB pair plus Buffon pretty much guarantees that. That doesn't mean they are not playing attacking football.
Nobody is saying anything nice about Netherlands anymore.
Nobody is saying anything nice about Brazil anymore.
Germany is playing like they always play.
Not sure about Spain.
>Italy could win a match by 8-0 with 90% possession
No they couldn't.
So pretty much every commentator. I'm fucking sick of it. Everytime a traditional football nation is playing, we have to listen to those hacks spouting bad/outdated football stereotypes. If an African NT is playing, any of them, our commentators will say that their football relies on strenght rather than ball possession.
Foreign commentators will always say that we are playing Joga Bonito style, even if we are with the worst players we can get.

>Italy has beatiful display of defensive football, Juventus CB pair plus Buffon pretty much guarantees that. That doesn't mean they are not playing attacking football.
My point is, even if Italy is playing attacking football, people will see them as a defensive-minded NT and give you a lecture about Catenaccio, Maldini, Baresi, etc.
This happen because people want to be told what they already know.
I am honestly tired of commentators pandering to the lowest type of fan. Fuck people and their awful taste, media should have the balls to try to educate people instead of giving them what they want.

What a beautiful display of kick and rush, truly the epitome of the beautiful game

"argentine team could win thanks to messi superb performance again, what would we do without the best footballer ever? We'd be worse than Fiji Islands" (even though we got 2wc and 14americans cup)

Italy and Brazil haven't been good in years. They lucked their way to the Euro 2012 finals and rightfully got wrecked
Who is saying the opposite?
"All the talent in the world (kek) but they just can't seem to put it together on the international stage"
The stereotype about English football here was that it relied on set-pieces or crosses to the box (chuveirinho, in Portuguese). I think it's related to how we saw the Premier League in the 90s

>American commentators:
>"Don't pay attention to the score line, consider instead the maturation and growth that these young players are showing. They just have to grow into it. It's going to be a bright future for USA soccer on the world stage one day soon. Sometimes these unfortunate things happen, Jamaica has some really, really skilled players."
>whenever Mexico plays
>"we are gonna do it this time, we are going further than the round of 16"
The only ones who get cucked by this are Italians because it seems we aren't able to play Football even if we beat Spain and draw against Krauts.
being underrated is an advantage
They can only play paceniggers and hope for the best.
Don't forget they don't have a goalkeeper.

DELETE THIS RIGHT NOW
We don't have an identity because we keep changing up styles depending on the whim of whoever the current manager is.

What do other countries have for commentary cliches?
eternal second isn't an identity?
You guys are hero ball

Where does Pochettino stand in this?
Hatchet men snapping legs before giving it to their current GOAT to either go past 5 men and score or get a goal by cheating.
Also, cocaine and the most corrupt FA outside of Africa.
So wrong on the 'la aspect.
Saying "'la" is a scouse thing. Most scousers have nothing but contempt for the English national team.

That's Bilardo
Menotti it's the opposite. Argentina was actually the team that made the least fouls in 1978
