Arsenal immediately spring to mind, especially at the moment, Man City are a good team to watch as are Spurs. I also think Newcastle have been playing some very good stuff as well. I really do not see Swansea as the best footballing side in the prem, dont get me wrong they are good with there football but they are not the best
WOW!!!!!!!! What have you been watching lately? Arsenal Manchester City Spurs WOW!!!!! Each entitled to his own opinion, but with those choices you are in no position to be critical of his. In my opinion of course.
Yep, Swansea play the best football in the Premier League. Not like they are a poor man's Arsenal, when Arsenal only just broke back into the Champion's League places. If Swansea played the best football in the Premier League, they'd be fighting for a Champion's League place. And they call us deluded...
Marko, best football to watch is not always the winningest football. I think that is what he meant and is the basis for my opinion. Just like they played the prior season in the Championship. Schooled us most in their stadium of any side that I saw us play against last season.
Agreed. Pressuring, aggressive football is the best and most entertaining. Free flowing is good but there has to be an element of strength and total domination. The ability to pressurise your opponent into submission is entertaining. Even when you're not holding a lot of possession, remaining in control of the game through solid defending and stinging your opponent on the break. Entertainment is entirely about domination for me. It also works in football!
I watched them beat us in fantastic style, but i think the absence of Johnson meaning we had to play 442, effectively killed us from the off. They then repeated the scoreline and performance at home to Norwich a few weeks later the next time i saw them on sky and were once again great to watch and didn't give a very good Norwich team a chance. Credit to the manager though for backing his players and continuing to instruct his players to play their passing football despite the likes of this happening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzXqf_YNyd4 Also a poor mistake cost them the game against scum and the manager took the blame and didn't blame the player Rangel as it is how he asks them to play by passing the ball out from the back, so got to applaud his philosophy.
Yeah that was a shocking error from grayson playing 442 there!. wec ouldnt even play it at home to **** teams!. shudda played clayton that game without a doubt
The best way to play football is to play the style that a situation demands. See a weakness and exploit it. Having a primary play style, but be capable of playing other styles if required. Flexibility. While it's true you should always try and dictate the play, impose your game on your opponent and let them react, it's not always possible, especially when playing against teams that are better than you. So it's necessary to find weaknesses in your opponents game, and exploit it. That may mean the occasional ball over the top.
I agree with your opinion but that is the recipe for the most successful football not necessarily the most fun for a neutral to watch.
Good job I'm not a neutral. If I was a neutral I'd watch the scum when they're not losing, and I'd watch Barcelona and Real Madrid.
It depends what type of football you enjoy to watch. I think most people will agree Barcelona play the best stuff in the world and its all on deck but they have kinda combined free flowing football with the exploitation and dominance that Marko is talking about. Personally I love to watch Arsenal when on form as I think the philosophy that Wenger uses is enjoyable to watch but I understand a lot do not like that style of play
Agreed, but they have not "been on form" for quite some time now. Dd you watch Man City v Chelsea, Chelsea v Spurs? Terrible to watch.
I didn't end up watching Chelsea v spurs. I was watching the F1 (which I am assuming I'll get shot for saying) I recorded it but then saw the score so didnt watch. The Man City chelsea game was pretty ****. Arsenal have been on pretty good form recently, up into 3rd and won 7 or 8 games in a row havn't they now? There not exactly ripping teams apart as they have done previously though. Man United are one of the worst teams to watch and I'm not jsut saying that because I hate them. Spurs have been pretty good to watch this season though
I was loving the F1 until the rain break and the Brits went from 1 and 2 to 3rd and last... The Malaysian GP is always a shambles with the weather, the sooner they move the date or delete it from the calendar the better. Pretty **** Sunday for sport in general, I was also looking forward to the Rhinos game but **** knows what they were playing at, it was the equivalent to the Forest game.
geez clarkey, even i wouldnt say we are the best footballing side in prem however i agree that leeds are a bigger club than swansea and lastly i need you buggers to win a few more games for my picks in daves top 6 comp
Yea it was **** from an english perspective but it was a really good race to watch, 2 relative underdogs (alonso has become an underdog I would say and perez) were in the top 2, Senna raced out of his skin as well. I enjoyed it. I havn't watched any english Rugby League for ages now, just following scorelines more than anything. I heard teh rhinos dyed there hair red or some **** against St. helens. What the **** was that about?
