Tooj 17 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Can see both sides of this. I would hate to watch a team like Barcelona week in week out. All that passing about yuk. Much prefer the Keegan tally ho approach. Christ almighty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4669 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Christ almighty. Surprised you find that strange. I would have thought that most people prefer the blood and snots excitement of English Football as played by Keegan. Maybe its an generation thing (not meant nastily ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its an generation thing (not meant nastily ) Not at all as Keegan is my hero but Barcelona are just on a different level to anything in my lifetime. Also not sure if people agree but we played better football IMO when we had Sellars and Cole rather than Ginola and Ferdinand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 34719 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) The best "football" (as opposed to most effective) we ever played under KK was the sort of one-touch football typified by the 2-1 away win to Norwich. I can sort of see your point about tiki-taka at times but that's down to the opposition trying to nullify it rather than the ethos behind it imo. Also, I don't see Keegan's brand of football as being 'blood and snots' as you call it. Perhaps its biggest downfall in his first spell as manager was a lack of English 'no nonsense' cynicism. Then again, CT, you clearly know absolutely fuck all about football so I'm not sure why I'm bothering Edited December 4, 2012 by Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4669 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Lets put it in simple terms The most exciting games I like watching are where its end to end football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not at all, simply because of how brilliant is to watch the attacking play of Xavi, Iniesta and Messi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4082 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 7-8 first team players who've been playing together since they were 7. We're not going to see the likes of it again during our lifetimes I reckon. I dont know how anyone who claims to be a football fans cannot enjoy watching that team. They should be kept out of football discussions anyway, no parallels whatsoever in modern day football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but give me the sort of Liverpool v Newcastle 4-3 game any day of the week. (Though hopefully with the scoreline reversed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I can understand why people find it boring when they watch Spain play without a striker, but that's because Del Bosque is a lot more negative than Guardiola was or Villanova is now.

Howmanheyman 32596 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 By the way, 'daddy', can YOU explain why SAFC's average gate this season is 3,000 BELOW our LOWEST gate of the season? When you do, don't bother putting it on here, just send it as a PM to Gemmill and he can summarise for me. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its an generation thing (not meant nastily ) the generation point would have some relevance if you'd been a football fan in your youth; as it is, it just makes you look even more of a worthless retard than the rest of your inane, inaccurate drivel already does.
