Football used to be a simple game. As soon as money comes in, it stops being quite so simple.Originally posted by winalotto View PostIt's a very simple game, I remember when we used to have defenders midfielders and strikers , now we have false 9s , 8 and half's , wing backs , creative 10s , players in the hole or players between the lines , holding mids and sweeper keepers !"What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value. The idea that I trust my eyes more than the stats, I just don't buy that because I've seen magicians pull rabbits out of hats and I know I just know that rabbit's not in there." - Billy Beane

Footballs is a simple game and only made complicated by people who think there more intelligent than others, the old expert talking the theory game yet clueless when it comes to practical, bit like in other aspects of work, where a student or such comes along and gives it all the theory but when it comes down to the practical skilled bits they aint got a clue!Originally posted by nasser95 View PostFootball used to be a simple game.

He was referring to the game itself - which was, is and always will be a simple game. End of.Originally posted by nasser95 View PostFootball used to be a simple game.
