There are plenty of streetwise nations in central America. That hurt, even destroyed us in the past. Our talent level is too high now, as the results show. It is one factor in a football match. An important one but not the defining one. It has become a joke because you are trying to make it so. Canuckia, JAVIERF and PegCityCam 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No stereotype, it is a tangible and concrete fact. Jack Charlton's Eire , anyone ? Big time cheaters from Aldo, the cheaters Ronnie Whelan Brady and Kevin Sheedy to Dennis Irwin and Paul McGrath and Kevin Moran . Cuti Romero is the Kevin Moran of this age!

Google “GDP per capita” and if they’re above Canada, not streetwise. Below Canada, streetwise. Extremely below Canada? Buddy, you’re in for a dark alley knife fight.

InglewoodJack Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Just now, Olympique_de_Marseille said: Oh God. You went for the bait. 🤦♂️ If “STREETWISE” means gaming every single little advantage you can to give you an edge over the opposition which is the thing a lot of people point to when talking about what makes South American teams special, I mean, we’re a nation that plays our home games in subzero temperatures because the Central American teams can’t deal. We let Richie Laryea mess around with players worth more than his entire club, we have Alistair Johnston pissing off these extremely elite opponents, you have Eustaquio pulling nutmegs on KDB, Davies *literally* playing like he’s playing street ball. We have a slew of anti-Pep wingers like Millar, Shaffelburg, Davies, etc., who play with SKILL and PASSION and LOVE FOR THE BEAUTIFUL GAME and not just back passes and xA/60 merchants. You have Ismael Kone who has long hair, which we all know is a sign of a top, top footballer- Brazil started suffering when their players cut their hair to be more appropriate for the clean and proper premier league crowd. I won’t say we’re the most streetwise team in concacaf, but someone could make that argument. PegCityCam, narduch and JAVIERF 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that the children and grandchildren of the working class people voted to the far right with the promess of " you can be rich too" and " hate your useless retired grandpa /grandma who are a Peronist or UCR obsolète citizens". " Let's make Argentina great again ". Kids and haters went fot it, But El pueblo ( teachers , unions , doctors etc) will always prevail . jhoops__ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
