How do you say EL ESCRITORIO in Dutch?
Is it really that hard to become a professional football player if your parents force you into it?I don't meant the top of top, that's obviously some weird genetic mutations going on but just professional that can make it into some bottom tier La Liga or Serie A clubs, like Real Sociedad or Verona
>>154444380Vardie is such a great human being, how based can a life story be.
>>154444380I'm not saying edge cases don't exist, I'm just saying what a statistical meat grinder youth football is. And replying to OPs post that seems to think if he had a boy tomorrow and Project Mbappe'd him, he would be guaranteed to even play regularly for a 6th tier side here or a 4th tier side in Portugal, when that is very unlikely.Besides, Giroud joined Grenoble at 13, sure he worked his way up from there but it's not like he was some mystery. Ligue 2 is still a very high league to end up in, higher than 99% of kids who join an academy. Jamie Vardy was at Sheffield Wednesday's academy and released like many other kids, but after two seasons at Stocksbridge rapidly rose through non-league and Leicester took a punt on him. Basically once they were aware of his ridiculous talent he quickly found his level.Ian Wright is maybe one case, had a couple of trials in his teens, went to prison, but then played Sunday League until he was 22 and signed for Greenwich Borough before Crystal Palace then Arsenal.

Do your countrymen get obsessed with international sports team competitions too much? Here in Kazakhstan people get obsessed with every olympiad and rich people give them free stuff if they get something. What about your country?
>>154429740Our national football team doesn't look very different?
>>154401646cricket and rugby union support revolves around the national side primarily, as opposed to soccer and rugby league where its the pro-clubs.

NoThank you for your attention to this matter
>>154445982si
>>154445982You are the Dark Horse for me
>>154445982It’s not impossible, but saying you are more than a dark horse would be ludicrous. If you end Ecuador were one team, things would get a bit more interesting. With a good coach in particular, don’t know about what you have right nowI won‘t say you can’t win it, but we all know chances are rather slim. Quarterfinals are definitely doable, though (though I don’t know your draw), and that means a semifinal may be within reach as well. That would be very impressive already

Why do contrarians, like vegans or feminists, have the urge to prove to everyone they're the stupidest person in the room?It was a good game, people enjoyed it, social media being what it is, it's glorified for a while but everyone will forget about it in two weeks, so why are you mad exactly?
>>154434983no one's mad baguette, it's just pointing out a stupid statement.
didn't watch it, was it better than barca-inter semis of the last year?
