soccer strategy

[moby]

the argentinian league is very very good in football aspects. watching some of the matches on SBS you just think where would they reach in the champs league.

but here we are talking about strategy,

in an interview with mourinho he stated that coach a italian team is nothing like others. he changed tactics around four times in one game and the torino coach changed to stop his tactics, this just shows.

Serie A has the most effective tactics but the also the most boring tactics.

Even Mourinho has commented that Italy is all about tactics. He has to make 4-5 major tactical changes to his line up throughout one game.

[Sule]

yea it can almost turn into a chess game between managers with the occasional mistake by a team

i've never seen 11 men behind the ball or long ball tactics in the Seria A.
EPL is by far the most boring league they lack flair i'm not saying all teams and all player but i'm saying not enough teams

Tito, do you even watch the English league? I'm sure if we posted a poll on here, most people would say the English league is the most entertaining.

[Sule]

the problem with the poll  is that the premier league is the most televised in the world so most people dont have another league to compare it to.The only reason for this is that it has the most money, so they buy the big players.


the leagues that you like/watch are all down to what type of football you like.

Non-stop running: England
Defensive counter-attacks: Italy
Free-flowing football, yet still fast paced in the final third: Holland/Spain
Blend of attacking and defensive football: Germany

i dont watch enough of any other leagues to make any real conclusion on the style of play but that pretty much sums it up

[Tito]

I'Tito, do you even watch the English league?

yes about 7 live game each week

the real question is, do you watch the other leagues?

I'm sure if we posted a poll on here, most people would say the English league is the most entertaining.

As Sule said its the most televised and most common.
Now the argument is not whether it is the most watched but is it the most skillful and entertaining league.
As i said i watch the EPL every week not cause i choose to but its that or no football at all. I also watch some live Seria A and La Liga games but like 1 Seria A and 2 La Liga games each week and obviuosly highlights of other league so you can't say i'm in a position to not comment on this.

I respect your opinion but to me EPL isn't the most exciting league.

[Sule]

EPL being the most exciting is at times a misconception of whats going on

alot of running, alot of hard work. There arent as many, barely even, midfield generals who dictate the game in England. Its more about hard work in the EPL rather than talent and skill (SOMETIMES). The game isnt track, if you know what i mean

I respect your opinion but to me EPL is the most exciting league.

huh?

[cigar omar]

Hahahahaha unpredictable Tito.

[Adi]

Yeah, I watch other leagues. Every weekend I was games from England, Germany, Spain and Italy. I just prefer the games from England.
