The Puskas award (for best goal of 2010)- http://www.fifa.com/ballondor/puskasaward/index.html

Can watch all the goals nominated on the link. I know its not on the list, but everytime I see Pavlyuchenko's goal versus Bolton, I struggle to think of a better goal

 

Was actually really impressed with Yokoyama's goal untill I realised that they were girls, which btw, took too long for my comfort.

It's easy to spot as because they're so shit she actually manage to do what she does it must be women's football. Hardly an achievement as women's football isn't a real sport.

While on the subject, why are women trying to be equal when it's a natural fact that men and women will be built physically different? Their football suffer from the low keepers and big goals, also the pace suffers because they're slower than most males. Why not just shrink the pitch a tiny bit and have a size smaller goals? It would improve their game to the unrecognisable in my opinion, would perhaps even make it possible to watch.

 

That said, in handball, the problem is the opposite way. The women have a correct sized pitch and correct sized goals, whilst the men just look like giants and there's not really any room to do anything on the pitch for them.

 

In skiing there's a difference in the distance females / males ski because of the natural physical differences, nobody is complaining there as it's understandable it is that way. I don't get why they want equality for something when going for that equality means their sport will never in the history of the world become watchable to anyone?

 

This bugs me.

That's not even Messi's best goal in 2010.

 

I see better than that on MOTD every week. Weird, because he's scored some stunners.

A good Schwarzer interview my favourite question was this

What do you reckon to Petr Cech’s hat? Shaka Hislop thinks he should try a few different styles and colours.

Hmm. It’s weird how quick we’ve got used to that hat, isn’t it? Maybe he could try a sombrero. That would jazz things up, and keep the sun out of his eyes.

I don't understand all this nonsense about women's football not being a "real sport". It's clearly a sport, just not one that you enjoy. They don't really need to change the rules, they just need the general level of the players to improve, which will occur if the sport spreads and becomes more popular. I really don't think any of the problems with the game at current are to do with physical limitations.

 

As for goal size, there are plenty of six foot tall girls about and it is not as if the scores are significantly higher than men's football except when poor teams play top teams.

The Norwegian league is pretty much the second best league in the world after the US, and the scores are fucked up each week. Like the cup final with two of the best teams in the country... it ended 7-0 and there might as well not have been a keeper on the pitch. Our standard of league for the women is top notch compared to a lot of other countries, and it's the second most popular sport for women to play here after handball. There is definiately something fundamentally wrong with the way the woman's side of football is played, and unless it will be a sport only for giant women and not your averagely tall women it'd be even more of a niche sport than it is Internationally now. Most women playing football are around 5ft3 to 5ft7, just as those heights are pretty much the average height of women.

 

You see this in the US as well, there's just something not right. It's not as it'd be massive differences, just a slightly smaller area of pitch and a slightly smaller goal to compensate for the physical difference between the genders to provide a more competitive and entertaining incarnation of the sport.

 

Also, the general level of the best female players are no doubt up there with a lot of the best men. I went to college with two female players who at the time had represented Norway in youth Internationals, and it was impossible to play against them. Granted, I'm a pretty shit footballer, but they were just impossible to come up against. I don't think the standard is necessary low, I just think the physicality limits the way the game is played by females compared to males. So unless you start only allowing above average heigth women to play professional women's football, I don't see how my point would not remain valid.

 

And oh, of course it's a real sport. It's just poking fun at it due to the apparent lack of quality compared to male football, a lack of quality which in my opinion is down to playing after the exact same set-up even though the difference in physicality between the genders creates the illusion of the quality being low even though the footballing ability present is actually not bad, at the top clubs at least.

c***s! the pair of them  :angry:

Shame Zenden has to play for that lot, as I've always liked him. Apart from playing for them, he doesn't strike me as a cunt at all.

Gyan on the other hand can fuck right off.
