I was a mid fielder in adult competition.
I know what I'm talking about -
I'm the forum guru on this topic.
Any questions?

I used to play soccer. Roll Eyes

I played 3 trial matches. Didn't make the team, scored 2 goals and was the fastest in the team but I was the only player who didn't speak Italian. Had a lot to do with Soccer Players, Soccer coaches and Broadcasters. Much of the first Australian world cup team came to my engagement party.

No but there are likely others well qualified. I played about 20 seasons of Rugby League.

I seem to have come across Soccer players in a lot of different ways. I worked For the PMG the first team I was with included Raul Blanco. My Wife's Uncle played for Australia, One of her cousins played top level indoor soccer including several years in Argentina. I played golf with a well known Marconi Striker and another guy with the golf club coached Newcastle. I worked in IT support on a world cup broadcast.

OK so your comments then on the way they are playing.
Let's start with the 3,4,3 structure?

I make no claim to know anything about soccer but that combination is 3 up front 4 in the centre and 3 at the back. Like I said I played Rugby League. Knowing soccer players teaches me nothing.

Well - I'd like to see more exciting soccer where they break that structure often -
going to 3 in the back 2 in the middle and 5 up front.
They don't do it enough as it's risky to leave the mid field less defended.
A mid fielder can even score a goal that way as it confuses the opponents
and outnumbers them around the goal.
I think the play is too predictable and that's why we're seeing
penalty shootouts to win games.

Soccer is a boring game.

2 of the best teams in the world play for 1 hour 30 mins.
Not 1 score.

Useless.

It's not about the score at the end.

But I'm not surprised that fact goes straight over your head.

A game where the lead can change often and is high scoring is MUCH better to watch.
eg, league, union, AFL, basketball.

You would get scores like 25 to 23 but without a good goal being scored. nobbling the D is no answer. Soccer is Soccer (a low scoring mostly boring game) playing with the rules will stuff it up like has happened in so many other sports.

Look at the horror of the NRL as an example of this.

Not 25 to 23.
In soccer you have to take risks to get goals.
