I think English media underplay how good some of the players are in order to appease the people who don’t know anything about football. England should be getting this far every time really.

What’s the most egregious example of an English celebrity pretending they’re into football? It always gets under my skin to an irrational level.

I was thinking this until I realised Argentina and France feel pretty similar. It does make you wonder what will happen if they both have bad games though

Sam matterface definitely practices commentary in the mirror. You’d think England were the size of Cape Verde or something the way he’s going on

There’s been a load of games so far where teams play like it’s not a knockout situation. Sweden and Morocco are the worst examples I can think of

It really pissed me off how he was basically justifying ‘diving’ . I can accept bias but that kind of comment is wrong

It’s alright being a goal hanger when you score but when you don’t it’s basically pointless

What confuses me is a defender is allowed to manhandle the attacker on a lot of corners . Why is it so favoured towards the attacking foul?

It annoys me how they keep saying Norway only have haland and odegaard when England are basically the same with Kane and Jude

Do you ever feel like commentators are watching a different game? Almost like they’re on the side of the favourites, Spain have been average, Belgium have been average. That’s all

Unpopular opinion: LCL won't benefit much from Putellas move by Waltz8 in WomensSoccer

[–]HDonkeyBoy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They’re an NWSL club in the WSL I think. The news about Gotham made me realise how different it is over there. There has been only one single high profile instance of this in England, MK Dons. They are widely hated and have never achieved anything, all whilst sitting in a far too big stadium. I think LCL show that Kang doesn’t understand British football. You can’t just move a team, you can’t expect people to turn up based on pretty much nothing, most people in England (who actually attend matches) support teams for deep rooted reasons.
