[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You still didn't get the rock paper scissors analogy, so I'll break it down for you further.   The rock doesn't win every battle.   Enjoy your win, paper.[/quote]

Because it is irrelevant. You continue to argue that results in youth soccer matter. Development matters. Playing to win at 12 at all costs does not develop all the players. There are lots of ways to win and call it a rock, a paper or scissors. Does a direct style make players more well rounded?

You can spout all you want but in the end if you control and keep the ball at your own discretion you have to find other ways to play.

If the style of play is to simply dribble at the opponent or get the ball to Mia oh are not developing.

It is ok, you don’t get it. [/quote]

You are a true dunce.  you make a big deal out of the results of one game, and from the other side of your mouth argue the result doesn't matter.

As has been stated many times, PDA didn't plan for tiki taka, and they showed it.  They don't face it all year, so it's not surprising.  This doesn't mean their girls are not technical, nor that they can't play a different style, nor does their management stink.

ONE GAME.   Get over yourself.[/quote]

Technical is more than being good at 1v1s. Technical is also being efficient with the ball. If you can receive and pass the ball accurately with one touch that is both technical and efficient. I’m sure the PDA girls can dribble at a player and beat them 1v1 but why take 6 touches when one or two will do the job?

Spoken like a true Tiki-taka acolyte.  Johan would be proud.   Though I'd still argue it was a style choice, not technical ability. ;)[/quote]

So to you it is tiki-taka. The rest of the world it is the modern game. You either evolve or get left behind. Playing rugby and long ball is so 1980’s. It’s not even soccer. It’s like watching the 1950 basketball. [/quote]

Liverpool doesn't play Barca's style.  I think they do OK.   The last WC winner didn't play Barca's style either, they seemed to do OK too.   Modern football is NOT tiki taka.[/quote]

Our youth soccer teams do not play like Liverpool or France.  There is very little tactical cohesiveness even at DA and ECNL level.   It is extremely rare to see a local youth team to play good soccer.   [/quote]

Now you are reaching incredibly beyond your grasp.  Just let it go.[/quote]
