football is a capitalist sport. cuba and north korean sucks too
>>155576031>japan and Korea>good
I think they dont try. I dont think they want their people to become football-obsessed goycattle. It offers too much in the way of opportunity for western subversion. I dont see how you can go all-out to get tonnes of Olympic medals across dozens of sports, and then not be able to put together a good footballing programme. No way they dont have the talent with all those people.
>>155575750Domestic league kept buying foreign talent plus lots of corruption also the big league is mainly see as a networking business their is a smaller but mire popular lessn professional or controlled/corprate local leagues these will produce players who want to actually play the sport
>>155575750People forget that these dudes were starving to death like only 60 years ago. It takes a while for a generation to recover from that malnourishment. They can only win in specialised sports that rely on individual skill.
>>155576427>>155575750More or less check back in a decade and a half
>>155576031they are more capitalists than americans
>>155576331You’re not wrong, but needing government intervention to start playing is a major NGMI sign anyway. Football can’t blossom without freedom and spontaneous love for the game (as an activity, not as a spectacle).
>>155576331They don't do well in any team sports.All the Olympic medals they won are individual sports
Japan has the power of anime and Korea has the power of KPop, but what does Chyna have?
>>155575750Because China is a very self-serving, materialistic nation. They only care about themselves and can't understand team spirit. It's why they do so well in individual events at the olympics like diving and weightlifting, but they are always terrible at team sports like football.India is the same, except they are bad at everything.
Like 60 years ago doing anything except shouting Maoist slogans resulted in you getting tied up and beaten in the streets. The trauma still runs deep.
>>155576331Their people are already massively obsessed with soccer though, something like half the population watches the EPL.They're simply bad at team sports.
They're also bad at basketball despite having Yao Ming as their chief instructor or something like that
>>155575750Lack teamwork. Good at the Olympics because it is mostly individual sports, but in team sports they fall off.
>>155576469you chinks said that a decade and a half ago too
>>155576800>>155576972This sounds like bullshit but I think it's actually true. They got so mindbroken by the famines and Maoist terrors that they are extremely wary of anyone outside of their immediate family. Social cohesion is completely built on fear and cooperating for team sports is hard for them.
>>155575750This is intentional. CCP would rather have a wageslave or an engineer than a sports superstar. That's because China's priority is not individual prosperity but surpassing the west and reshaping the global order through manufacturing.
>>155575750Because they’re shit
>>155577150I think it's more of the societal consequences of being a country full of single-child households
>>155577103The society is an extreme rat race so no one wants their children to play sports because it will affect their chance of moving up in the race.I think they can still cheese basketball by making an entire team of 7 footers though.
>>155577803There are more Brazilians in NBA right now than there are Chinese and Brazil cares way less about basketball than China does
>thinking the Chinese can win at a sport that other countries care about
>>155576469>WORLD SUPERSOCCER 2040!!!
>>155575750Hoser explains it well. https://youtu.be/cPBAxhSJrTg?is=OwsAexd-JgdnjUMu
>>155577103>Maoist terrorsHe was right to kill the birds. Maoism was bad because mao trusted communities too much. When you allow anarchy on a local scale it's going to be bullying and abuse. Same happened in the ussr.
>>155575750They focus more on making money (and are really good at it).
>>155576331Something to consider:>in track and field chinese men have less olympic gold medals than even India/Pakistan since 2008Every single relevant European team has Africans as well it's insan
>>155576031FACT, Hitler absolutely hated football. Had the nazis won we'd be discussing how shit Germany is at football in this thread.
>>155580747>China has almost the same problem as India when it comes to footballChina really is spiritually Indian
>>155580894>Hitler absolutely hated footballNerdy virgin losers tend to hate sports
>>155575750lmao nigga you never seen shaolin soccer? they're goated
Have you ever been to China? Some people are nice but 90% of them are very selfish. I wouldn’t call it individualism, since China is a highly collective society (ie when something goes wrong, the whole society/group has to go down with them; an example: if someone is ill prepared and dies during a hike, they would shut down the whole mountain by fencing it all around and nobody is allowed to hike anymore).I go to China once a year to visit a factory for work, and it took decades for our company to find a business partner that wouldn’t betray us. They are simply dogshit at team work. This is why our company hired Chinese women instead; women are much more cooperative and efficient than men in China (you’ll notice it’s the only country where women billionnaires are self-made and women team sports have much better result than men).
>>155580906>flips>no money>no WC team>cheap whores for the world
>>155580955People here live and die for niggerball unfortunately enough.
>>155576469>More or less check back in a decade and a halfNothing is going to change when parents would beat the shit out of their kids if they participated in the sport, as it is not a viable career path. It's easier to stack talents in other sports because China's centralized training camps have been proven to work well, and many see it as a career path.It's just not the case with football since you need an organic community ecosystem, which China doesn't have.
>>155576331>I dont see how you can go all-out to get tonnes of Olympic medals across dozens of sportsthey are stat padding with manlet sports like weightlifting (lower weight class), diving and gymnastics. Just like burgers are doing with swimming.
>>155575750Same reason India also sucks. Football is basically a massive pusedo-nobility class endeavor to launder money in those states with zero care for the sport or even the nationalistic pride of it.
>>155577803>>155581012This is the correct answer, old China hands know
>>155580894>HitlerHe was a fag
>>155580907>>155581040
>>155575750Chinese don't know teamwork.The Asian qualifiers are tough in a different meaning.
>>155576718They are good at basketball because a) selective breeding to produce extremely tall basketball players is more straight forward than breeding good football players, and b) they have invested in basketball for decades, unlike football.All it will take is for the World Cup to be hosted in China, then the Chinese will start spending like crazy to train a new generation of actually competent players.
>>155576031>he fell for the china is communist meme
>>155576792genshin impact
>>155575750There's a lack of football culture in China, people love watching it but there's not that many kids playing footy, and parents would rather throw their kids into cram schools than let them go out and play. You don't develop a real football culture and good players without kids playing football on the regular.
>>155580894Hitler didn’t hate football he just saw it as a propaganda tool. He hated certain football clubs that were run by Jews like Bayern Munich though. He saw Jews taking controlling of sports and entertainment rather than being opposed to the concept of football in general. He wanted to push Jews out of owning football clubs rather than banning football all together Here is a video on this https://youtu.be/IvxL4aGTdHo?si=rrsIe6tjLw0AJjTz
Japan and Korea have a long term development plan. For example Japan have a 100 Year Plan in which they plan to develop J1 League, win a World Cup by 2092 and produce a 4-10 players per year to Europe, which is working. Korea's program is slightly degressing but is still effective.While it make takes decades for a successful football plan China don't have that program at all they buy clubs, naturalize players and invest in their leagues (which is so corrupt half of their teams are on minus points). A lazy shortcut hence why they will never be successfulThis lazy shortcut also applies to Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines and other Asian countries. They don't realize they have to go through 5-10 years of hurt to produce a player of excellence and thrive because as soon as one player goes to Europe of excellence it becomes a chain reaction where more come
>>155575750They don't care. Simple as.
>>155575750The Shadow that bred them can only mock; it cannot make: not real, new things of its own.
I thought about commenting on how it's not in their culture and how their kids dont naturally gravitate towards it.
>>155584015>Japan have a 100 Year Planthe problem they won't even to exist anymore at that time
>>155576031North Korea supposedly has one of the best women’s football teams in the world .
>>155575750They rack honor.
>>155576861So like mexico but 1 billion people.Or indians but -1 billion (jeets are at 2 billion esp if you include poor census and diaspoora)
>>155575750this >>155584125
>>155575750They're more of a snooker nation.
