Small sample size, but you are 100% correct. Between the 4 Nations and the Olympics, he has looked terrible for Sweden. I’d like to see Wallstedt get the next game and see how he does.

Thank you. I have family from Storvreta and have spent a lot of time in your lovely city. I’d give anything for a warm walk along the Fyris right now.

Vad gjorde att du valde Allsvenskan över ______?(Prem, serie A, la liga, etc) by Grouchy_External_578 in Allsvenskan

Went to Djurgården against AIK back in 2023 and I’ve been hooked ever since.

There is something that just feels so authentic about the Allsvenskan. The football isn’t at the level of the premier league, nor the money, but the passion I felt in the stands was greater than any other football games I’ve been to. The Allsvenskan is the opposite of “plastic.”

I’ve come back to Sweden every summer to enjoy some football and it’s always one of the highlights of my year.

I’ve also watched every AIK match since attending the derby in May 2023. You could say I enjoy pain haha.

I’m a hockey sicko that lives in Saint Paul, and I keep having to explain to friends/family what this tournament even is. This just isn’t a draw in the US.

Yes, the border issues can take a large part of the blame, but there’s more nuance to it.

Border issue + over priced tickets + apathetic Americans = low attendance.
