It's true that Europeans produce good midfielders and defenders though.

Popularity of sports in Britain ranked, and just how good we are at each of them:

>1. Football
Our current team is amazing. Coming home status: it's.
>2. Rugby
Rugby is probably the second most popular sport in Britain. The English team just humiliated Australia by thrashing them in their own back garden - the first time we have EVER won a Test series there. We're basically going to be the best team in the world by the next world cup.
>3. Cricket
We thrashed the Aussies as well to win the Ashes last year. Glorious.
>4. Tennis
Tennis is pretty popular here, especially since Andy Murray is the 2nd best in the world. #Muzza4Wimby2k16. Also, we won the Davis Cup, so we are officially the best tennis nation on Earth.
>5. Formula 1
F1 is popular, and Lewis Hamilton is reigning champion... twice in a row.
>6. Athletics
I reckon various forms of athletics are the next most popular, and we're fucking amazing at them too. We came 3rd in the 2012 Olympics despite a much smaller population than the US and China. People like Mo Farah, Greg Rutherford, our rowing teams, are among the best in the world.
>7. Cycling
Cycling has enjoyed popularity in recent years because we're so fucking good at it. Countless Olympic medals. Britons have won the Tour de France in 3 of the last 4 years (Bradders once, Froomey twice). Froomey is favourite again this year.
>8. Boxing
I don't know if it's the next most popular but we're amazing at it. Tyson Fury is the heavyweight champion of the world and there are currently 13 (thirteen) British world champions across the weight classes.
>9. Golf
Danny Willett won the Master's, cucking Jordan Speith in the process. Christ that was absolutely glorious to watch. Also there's another British guy called Rory McIlroy who I hear is pretty good (current form notwithstanding).

Watch hockey. It's very similar and a million times better

I will give you a (you) for the effort it took to write all this shit.

>>68694082
the thing with european players is that they have zero creativity and flair
>>
>>68695066

Thanks mate. Just thought I'd give you a picture of British sports. We play (and watch) a lot of stuff, you guys just don't seem to know about a lot of it.
>>
>>68694082
tbqh, Basketball is probably the most entertaining sport to watch and play. Fighting is also pretty fun to watch.
>>
>>68695005
Boxing is above cycling and athletics. Snooker and darts are also unironically above the bottom 5 of this list.

Ice hockey is really underrated. I guess it is because it is so expensive to play and also lack of ice in warm countries. It is the only sport where you could legally challenge a diving cunt like C.Ronaldo to a fight.

Playoffs would be awesome in soccer imagine a middle of the table team knocking out the regular season champion

you guys know that one comic where americans make fun of 'how we only have one sport'?

where the dad says to the kid
>what do you want to watch? soccer or soccer?

that's how i unironically feel
why the fuck do we put all our eggs in one basket? why aren't other sports more popular here?
why don't we have high school sports teams?

i don't even like american culture, but i have always been jealous of this

Literally unblack yourself.
>>
>>68697266
I'm pretty sure that your country has Rugby, Basketball, Hockey and even handegg leagues. People just don't care.
>>
>>68695005

Spieth cucked himself.

i enjoyed watching the beaner cup more than the yuropoor cub desu
>>
>>68697220
I'm not sure what pub you go to that has a snooker table
>>
>>68698888
Exactly, nobody cares. I played rugby when I was a teenager and eventually my team literally just stopped existing.

Just like the American Football league that used to exist here
>>
>>68695005
soccer and golf are the only good sports on that whole list. do people in britain actually watch cycling?
