>be american soccer fan
>on one side "lol soccer will never be big here, joke sport"
>on the other side "MLS is the worst league in the world we need to disband it and send all of our players to europe then we'll win a world cup!"
why is being a soccer fan in this godforsaken country so much suffering?
it's
suffering
everywhere
USA - no explanation necessary
England - they always fall apart
Mexico - 7-0
Brazil - 7-1
Argentina - how many consecutive finals have they choked in
Spain - 100 years of heartbreak and tnow they're finally great
France - no explanation needed (but their epic collapse in 2010 was probably the saddest thing I've ever seen)
daily reminder
>Ashley Cole plays down MLS interest "not ready to relax on a beach just yet"
>MLS teams aggressively pursue him and he gets signed a year after this comment

nice """""hard""""" half of the table you've got there lads, hope you can get through it without ""crying""
How were Germany and France able to win against a lesser team without making it look extremely difficult? Maybe they're actually good after all?
I'd much rather play Belgium than Iceland
>>68946216
>none-country trying out banter
>Draxler
Absolute beast, criminally underrated because he doesn't play in a big club.
>not even finished to type this and he scores a godlike volley
He's the most German looking of hem all. I don't know what it is about krauts but you can always identify them
>>68945341
most german looking are Neuer and Schweinsteiger by far.
>>68945341
most german looking is ozil
>tfw i will never experience waking up on a sunday, getting some food and then watching football all afternoon/night
how comfy is it americans?
Pretty comfy
It's better to have some drinks on a Friday night, get nice & buzzed, and then you wake up and just laze around the house watching college football all day Saturday. Maybe go get some fast food or call in for a pizza delivery in the afternoon.
>>68945100
It's comfy, but honestly only because it takes place on sunday during the perfect seasons of autumn and winter. If it took place during the other months I would never even consider watching it.
Players who should no longer be called up by the US for competitive matches (in no particular order):
Chris Wondolowski
Gyasi Zardes
Michael Orozco
Michael Bradley
Matt Besler
Graham Zusi
Any questions?
>>68945065
But Klinsmann is going to continue to call them up because he trusts them
Anyone who plays in MLS
Joke league

>>68945065
