I find spanish football to be a bit boring. They just play little triangles in the midfield all day long against teams scared to death.... Boring. Anyone saw Barcelona - Chelsea, semifinal in champions.... Dead boring. Anti football versus no ideas.
Although i agree the Spanish style gets a bit boring, you really gotta commend them for how they control matches. I get tired of ticka tacka too, but there's always quality passing, dribbling and off the ball movement mixed in which gets them their results, not to mention killer understanding between players (even those outside of the Barca crew). Spain fully deserve their status as favorites at the moment, the talent in their team matches their results...
Really can't compare that with Chelski's anti-football, the completely opposite in terms of talent matching style IMO.
In a socalled objective world you´re right, but football is something very subjective and I find games with spanish teams to be boring. It used to be happy, but I cant feel that anymore. It feels like its just working hard in a well lubricated machine. German footbal has been like that sometimes but the actual team is a lot more interesting.
I live in Spain and I never see spanish football anymore. And I hope someone else winns because I think it´ll be good with a change and that spanish football needs a kick in the arse.
Can definitely agree with you there, although i still watch a **** tonne of games. Germany are great to watch at the moment - such smart and direct attacking football. I guess Ukraine are getting everyone excited for the same reason.
Unfortunately it'll take a magnificently well organised team to match Barca and Real in La Liga. No one can compete with the money (players) they have. Maybe Malaga once they get some cohesion? Valencia, Atl. Madrid, Bilbao: All great teams, but just not up to that standard.
In a few months ill be supporting Linares Deportivo in tercera division, can't wait :)
