You'd think as one of the first countries to play soccer, Ireland would have a league that punches above its weight just like England. But instead, their league is far worse than similar-size countries like Norway or Slovakia. What gives?

Happy new year, fellow /sp/artans. 2025 saw the end of 13 years of hurt as /sp/ finally bagged another championship in the Summer. We are now 3 weeks away from the Winter Cup and >our title defence kicking off, and 23 players to represent the board must be chosen. This thread is for suggesting players (their names and how they will look), general aesthetics like kits, music or anything else relevant to the team. The 23 players who make the squad will be chosen in a poll next weekend.>What is this?A sitewide divegrass (sawker) cup where each board makes their own team of players relevant to the board's topic and culture, and play them against each other in CPU vs CPU matches on Pro Evolution Soccer. Although the players aren't controlled directly, the teams and tactics are handled by real people.>Can I join?There's always a need for people who can help test tactics or create aesthetics. We'll teach you everything you need to know, and how much time you put in is up to you.

>>152784314>Now here's a guy
going top to bottom, left to right>/pol/ meme that makes fun of /sp/, why was it ever on the team>club world cup time in the sun is over, absolute disgrace if this player remains over other memes>manure isn't gonna finish 17th again, doesn't deserve a medal spot>garbage choking player that's nowhere near popular enough to warrant a medal>simps rausaddDA BURRS (it's so rare they're good so rewarded with a rep)VOLUMES (not a messoy meme, lab beaker head, test tubes for limbs)_ (hockey puck, make it small so "can't see the puck")Haaland (either "how many?" or ".", his model would be the sillhouette of his default PES player model)X End Dynasty (mutthomes/chiefs)Mono (direct replacement for ngubu)Miami U rep even if they don't go all the way (could be michael irvin himself, his sideline antics are hilarious, and add something notre dame related floating behind the model)Comment too long.

>>152794032Kornheiser should stay fucking dead for his crime back then, and Mono is even less applicable and currently relevant than the general ngubu meme in my opinionNo idea about any of the American sport ones except Da Burrs, which I welcome. The hockey puck one is interesting, but I personally don't really see it (pun more or less intended) working that well for a playerYou definitely are right about the Emma one, that time has passed. The CWC meme could revert back to "Imagine if we cared" or something, which still is a /sp/ ol' reliable in day-to-day argumentsI've also thought about Slippy G being too old nowadays, but the model is so funny in my opinion that I can't see a replacement being worthwhile. A generic Wirtz just can't cut it
>>152794032I agree that the CWC meme should be replaced, I also agree that Da Burss should be back since they're actually looking good for the first time in 7 years. /hoc/ is really hard to say because there doesn't even seem to be a consensus from the community to come up with 1. As for the medals, we went with the most voted players, like it or not /mug/ and perro have a lot of staying power. Mono is redundant as long as Ngubu is around, both are /pol/ tier memes imo. Try to get more support for the college rep you want because they never get more than 3 votes when polling time comes around, again come up with something the college fanbase can agree on.
>>152792124they can be players on matchdays /sp/ isn't playing
>*kneels*
It's even funnier knowing they did this facing the US.

would you rather have a lot of cups, or no cups but have your team be filled with legendary epic moments?
I've never seen my NT win shit but see them lose 2 finals, but at least had the honor to see prime Sneijder, Robben and Van Persie play for years.My local team has played like 7 seasons total in the top-tier of Dutch football of the time and I've only seen them win the second-tier league twice to promote.Legendary epic moments is all I have.
>>152796287I was a kid at primary school when his happened. Every kid was trying to pull it off after.
>>152796374Oh and it's a bit different for my NT, England, as we are the protagonist of world sports as well as world history so every moment is legendary.
>>152796287I'd rather have one cup from long before I was born followed by a lifetime of Greek tragedy kino.

Is your country/region/city Worthy of Hosting American Football Games?
it's honestly disgusting
>>152792992If it's any consolation I'm also disgusted that our athletes have to waste time in Germany
>>152788882Then we are in full agreement
>>152788363Toronto is functionally in an international Metro region with Buffalo more than Green Bay with Milwaukee even and Seattle's not too far from Vancouver, whenever they put Seattle on TV it's mostly Vancouver due to tax reasons.They've had their teams for decades, their TV contracts and everything else. There's no converting people in Canada to the NFL, most Canadians live close enough to the United States that with a good weekend trip they can drive or even take a train and see a game.With the International games the stated purpose is to convert people, create international fanbases for teams and expand NFL's popularity globally.Canadians already watch the NFL on Sunday, root for a team they've had since they started watching when Justin Trudeau's dad was running the country and talk about the couple players on their CFL team that made a real impact in the NFL.

Totally forgot about FPL for the past week, thank god for Rice
Need an injury to Foden or Wilson before they play at this rate fs. It's insane how bad I am at using The Data™ because of how much I miss deadlines and shit.

>>152794985>good playersnot falling for this shit again
>>152794985A no-name player that prefers big club money over small club playing time is only shooting himself in the foot.Joao Felix bounced around some pretty good clubs and is still called up to the national team despte playing in a retirement league. All thanks to being a Benfica star once.
>>152795074>All thanks to being a Benfica star onceYou mean for half a season. Although it was an impressive one, that's all he played here. Him being called has nothing to do with it
>Famalicão sells for 250k>6 months later it's sold for 23M>Jorge Mendes still wins
>>152796010Renato Sanches and Enzo Fernandez also only played half a season.Benfica can still win this league, if they get a wonderkid (good luck having 2026 Mourinho doing that lmao).
