Having a playmaker and scorer to the level of harden would make it so much easier

But he’d take a ton of touches away from their young fellas

I can definitely see that though.
I mean yeah but you shouldn’t say it if it makes your team that much better

Well when you are straight up garbage as a team then yeah does it matter
Even if harden and internal growth willed them to 37 wins that’d be at best a playin team

What happened to them?
TA7 is just phoning it in. He’s pretty much waiting to be traded at some point.
The best way to describe TA7 rn is like Andrew McCutchen was before he got traded to SF. The team just sucked away any of the superstar he was.
The only people on the Sox who aren't sucking rn are Robert, Burger, and Cease.
They lose this series to the A's, Rick Hahn doesn't deserve to see a trade deadline.

new offside rule being implemented, need to see how it plays out first before I judge but it'll most likely stop players from trying to perfect an offside trap. We'll likely see less of that and more man to man marking I guess
they're just testing it for now in like 3 leagues
hasty basin

Oh
I mean offside is very annoying sometimes
short flame
I need to see it but it seems really forward oriented. I’m fine with the rules as they are, it’s just they turned it millimetric
hasty basin
Like mf 1 finger will be offside lmao
Just think defenders get too credited for keeping someone "offside" just because he was randomly there
Will make them think about their mistakes of marking more
I like it personally
sweet tree
same
well gotta see how it plays out first but yeah more forward oriented like sanjuan said
hasty basin
When technology advances even more I'd put it like
Most of the body has to be over the line
short flame
I just think it will result in a lot of goals specially since you can be onside with one trailing foot
hasty basin
Yes but that just encourages defenders to mark tighter
short flame
But that’s just eliminating positional defending. Now it’s going to be all manmarking

short flame
What if someone had a bigger butt or a bigger head

Just because the attacker was like some centimeters offside
Like he made the run he did everything right, the defender failed to guess what was about to happen, faile to mark
short flame
What do you do with a guy like fellaini
hasty basin
For his hair?
short flame
Yeah
hasty basin
Idk how they rule that rn
I haven't seen it
Does it count as being offside?
Well if the attacker is trying to make his mf run based on Fellaini's hair just because it's longer that's crazy lmao
short flame
Defenders get away with a lot of mistakes
Defending is already a tough job and trying to keep up with even more will lead to more mistakes. Either you accept that you’ll concede more goals and change to more offensive strategies or put even more people at the back to compensate. I won’t say the idea is bad before seeing it but it worries me. Clean sheets are a thing I thrive on and losing them would be devastating
hasty basin
Defending is already a tough job and trying to keep up with even more will lead ...
For me personally defending was a lot easier lmao
Attacking needs creativity
It's acc one of the reasons why attackers and midfielders are higher valued
short flame
I can play offensively and do well but I prefer to stay at the back because I like to challenge myself. Tackling is such a difficult thing to do, you need so much balance to take the ball but not get a foul. You’re stuck with running against a guy who’s coming at you
short flame
It's acc one of the reasons why attackers and midfielders are higher valued
They score the goals which is the spectacle of the game of course they’re higher valued
hasty basin
How about the skillful ones that aren't known for their goals and assists
How I see it is an attacker can go right left and through you, those are the 3 choices, you can deal with 2 of them at once if you're expecting it
fluid moat
I doubt they’ll keep it
hasty basin
I mean I'm not crazy mad about the ones we currently have
Just would prefer that one
short flame
They can pass dribble shoot, it’s 3 options but so much possibilities. You go to the ground too fast and you risk looking like a fool, you don’t go and they can shoot. You basically have a split second to make a decision where if you fail everyone will be against you
hasty basin
That's why you stand sideways to their "preffered" side while being ready
If they pass that's on your teammates to cover that man
short flame
And I know it’s not like that in professional football but with friends being a defender is horrible, because non athletes don’t track back so you end up with 4 on 1 and no help coming

Shooting you're just in front of him

I can shoot pass and tackle but I can’t run so I struggled in all positions but was decent enough. Defending was the toughest but also the most fun position for me
I’m a decent keeper but man you get shafted so often
hasty basin
Yeah ik all about that
My main position
But man just trying to attack makes me admire the people who do it
Like I have a friend and I thought his footwork was insane the things he could do yet
He can only play as a defender because he's not skilled enough
short flame
I was raised in a defensive mindset I have much more respect for defenders when they don’t get recognition most of the time
hasty basin
But that's always been a "thing"
People have been saying that for like what centuries?
Like obviously it's a respectable position not everyone can play it
But so is every position in football
short flame
Sure but in the end when it comes to choosing the best player it’s always the goalscorer who gets the big prize
hasty basin
Yeah well, if attacking was easier I think most games would be ending like 8-7 lmao
short flame
I Hope it doesn’t get to that
hasty basin
Well with that rule it's obvious goalscoring will be easier, but look, it actually makes defending harder
Maybe that will get some people to respect it finally
