Genuine question, why doesn't France just put Victor Wembanyama as their goalie? Literally nobody would score on him
>>
>>155752723
because diving would probably break his body, hes tall, not wide
>>
>>155752723
it would take him 5 minutes to reach the floor for low shots
>>
what is that circus freak shit, is he one of ours too?
>>
>>155752723
he would get knocked out like bowling pins if a ball hits him hard enough
>>
>>155753179
I'm surprised you don't know him, he's by far the most famous French person here

Fuck no. He's 7'6" and would fuck up his ligaments, he also isnt quick enough. My Spurs need him.
>>
>>155752723
Looks like a gangly uncoordinated bitch
>>
>>155752723
Weak mind.
Would crumble in a real match.
>>
>>155753295
he's ridiculously coordinated for his size, that's what makes him so good
>>155753312
that's true
>>
>>155753209
That's not André the giant?

I'm a late 2001...

holy unc, i'm 2007

Height is only one part of good goalkeeping and not even all that relevant. If you lack good timing, positioning and decision making you gonna get dabbed on regardless of your height.

Calvin Johnson was 6' 5", played football at 235+ pounds; ran a 40 yard dash in 4.35 seconds, had a 42 & 1/2 inch vertical jump, 139 inch broad jump. His catch radius was the size of a garage door. Imagine if he played goalie.

>be tall
>win
is basketball genuinely a meme sport?
>>
>>155753595
He lost in the finals thoughbeit

>>155753581
i don't think the european mind could comprehend megatron

>>155753595
absolutely

>>155753356
>>155753710
Maybe in 100 years you'll understand football
>>
>>155753356
>for his size
Correct, that still makes him super uncoordinated compared to a normal sized person
>>
>>155754152
Soccer is by far one of the simplest sports, and America is the sports mecca of the world. You literally can’t comprehend how far ahead we are of the rest of the world sport wise. I played like 10 sports before I graduated high school. Any sport we care about even slightly we at minimum are good at, and often dominate.
>>155753595
Sort of, in that nba players(and same for other leagues) are not even close to the most skilled players out there, and besides the guards many pro players aren’t even very good at basketball. A lot of them are just tall and not terrible, but that’s how much being tall matters.

>>155753595
Lanklet softboy got fucking demolished by a manlet and bodied the fuck out by an LGBT.
>>
>>155754304
and yet you understand nothing about football
>>
>>155755048
understood enough to qualify
>>
>>155753581
Any relation to Shaka Zulu and Tutunkhamun?
>>
>>155752723

there's a reason why there's very few goalkeepers above 6'6/2m, they are slower to go to the ground.
>>
>>155755231
If they're talented enough I think Hakeem could've done it. He started out as playing as a keeper before switching to basketball.
>>
Better question is why they don't put him on the hockey team playing goalie, he could actually just kneel there with some big ass pads and cover the whole goal. But I don't want to help France out
>>
>>155756057
i've never understood why they don't put an obese 600lb man in the goal for hockey
>>
>>155754304

Honest question: Why is american sports so boring and shit?

When I think about Rugby, Cricket, Soccer... those are compelling. But any ameriball sports... absolute snoozefest. No disrespect intended.
>>
>>155756592
Because you grew up with those sports and not American ones.
