[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the original question that was posed in this thread was, how technical are the girls? The thread has now diverged into a discussion of the future prospects of the women's national team. Although the two might be related to an extent, it appears that even those commenters who are confident that the women's national team will remain an international force for decades to come have recognized that the girls aren't very technical. And the video evidence from that entire tournament--not just the PDA vs Barca final--would substantiate that conclusion. When elite girls teams can win at the highest levels without playing technical soccer, there is very little pressure on American coaches and clubs to implement the type of intense technical training that would be necessary to change things up. Because "winning" at youth levels is prioritized over technical development.[/quote] Yes, that is a pretty fair analysis based on the examples presented. I might also add that our stubborn entrenchment to our National Team's success as some form of barometer of how our youth players should be developed. When you have people mock La Masia with infantile nicknames like La Fabracia to then be hailed as "post of the month" shows how entrenched we are in our outlook and self awareness. Train the kids the right way to play the game and let the National Team do what they need to do to win.[/quote] Lmfao gosh you’re an imbecile. It’s not mocking, you ignoramus. La Fabrica is the name for the academy of the best club in the world. That is Real Madrid Club de Fútbol. I got praised because they know what’s up. You? You show how entrenched you (and a vast majority of Americans) are in your lack of knowledge.[/quote]
