Spain

[Lil Layne]

Puyol must've been on drugs, why else would he think that hair looked good?

Well this is probably the most jealous statement i've ever read on here.

Watched the Ukraine game they were not that great and struggled quite a bit. Iniesta had a class game though - what a player.

Now that barca and Madrid are playing direct football the national team will change styles too. Which is a shame because I loved watching them pass sideways and backwards all game.

Amazing the Spanish decline. Around the same time lance Armstrong got caught too.

That's our problem. our scouts misheard it...they thought they were told to 'get some dopes.'

Let's be honest, they were never good to watch.

 

[Steesafc]

thats some dedication youve been putting in on FM

I've followed La Liga since the late 90's and Valencia's results for about 10 years pal, but yeah.

Valencia keep churning out left backs, keep churning out all sorts tbh their academy is class

Indeed. Bernat and Gaya are Valencian but Alba was originally a Barca youth product that they released and bought back once he started to produce the goods.

That's because other teams put ten men behind the ball because were shit scared of them,therefore making it less watchable.

When teams did try to go toe to toe with them were very good to watch.

So you're saying that its the other teams fault that Spain were boring to watch? How inconsiderate of the opposition

 

[Wise Man Says]

They bored me silly when they were winning everything.

Spain were only boring to watch in some peoples eyes because the opposition breathed the life out of the game.

Opposition sat back deep and put 10 men behind the ball,which meant no space in behind and Spain refused to go long.

It was not Spain's fault the opposition bored the life out the game.

The Euro final against Italy when they won 4 0 was excellent football and great to watch.

Its not just Spain seen it many a time in Europe and International games where the managers of the lesser teams have bored the life out the game by putting 10 men behind the ball playing for a 0 0

Which is fair enough tactics,but think unfair the team trying to win the game (Spain) is the one called boring.
