How good an athlete is Messi? Athleticism is only one factor. Then comes touch, vision, individual technique, coaching, game management

The other sports are just fast, strong and tall and don’t require training and development?

There’s no faster athlete than the ball. Football is about moving the ball.

💯. touch, pace, and passing are still behind the top teams.

There is not ONE USMNT in the history of the sport that has ever even been in the top 50 players of the world 😂 that is fact.

look at Haaland, he is a physical monster, yet he doesn't actually have strainous displays of athleticism 84% of the game, he just has a crisp game vision and positioning

Tyler Adams is a great example. there are big clubs sniffing round him who want a box to box midfielder with a great engine. the same clubs wouldn't be bringing him in for his technical ability or his ability to turn a game on its head. same with a lot of the US team. great athletic, hard working players without elite level ability.

for the love of God , retire the athleticism argument. football is both brains and braun. it helps that you can kick hard but it matters more that you have the right technique when you kick

The kids need to play everyday in a pickup style of soccer where they can express themselves. We coach the love of the game out of them. Traveling in a car for 4 to 6 hours just to play an 90 min game. Yes they need coaching but they need to play, play and play. We need 5 aside courts in neighborhoods.

You forget what the football player needs Technical Excellence : Elite first touch , Two footed capability , Ball manipulation Physical and Athletic demands : Explosive pace and power , Stamina and recovery Tactical and Mental Sharpness : Scanning and anticipation , Pressing and tracking back , Resilience . European Academy players start this at 4 or 5 years old development from a young age that is the difference .

they underestimate how great the real footballer use their body and brain. handle the ball with feet 100 times more difficult than hand.

I mean we were out running and out pacing a lot of the player there. Our speed and athleticism was not the problem at all.

skill issue, with mls and no relegation your football will not be competative. because you rely on the best to play in only 1 league

Scuba Steve :
I don’t care for the take that the U.S. isn’t good at soccer. We’ve made the round of 16 in 4 of the last 5 World Cups. You know who can’t say that? Italy, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Morocco, Denmark, Colombia, Uruguay. But I agree with the overall sentiment that our problem isn’t athleticism. I think it has to do with geography more than anything else.

Look at Spain. England are 1000 miles away from Spain technically as the oldest nation who invented the sport. Anyone can find 11 strong fast dudes. Football is like 75% technique

finding out what your elite youth level players have to pay to play is mind blowing to me.

2 Things: 1. Athleticism ≠ Exclusively physical qualities 2. No, they actually wouldn't put in numbers on NFL standards. We are actually behind in all aspects of soccer.

TT keep me on this side of this discourse, please. The USMNT is already tier S in pure athleticism compared to the other nations🙏🏾 😫
