Re: Why are Africans such poor footballers? PLEASE READ THE OP.
So let's hear your take on why they are so poor!

You have reposted the original post yet failed to change the bloody question!!
IMO African football thrives on letting the youthful talent gain experience, schooling (academy type) and a rounded game on the european circuit. Why? because it is where the money is, the biggest stars and the largest world audience. Coupled with the fact that most of the great clubs are european why not let scouts take their pick. You only have to watch tv to see that whenever sport relief is on.....kids wearing premiership, madrid or milan t-shirts. African football may be poor (as in league) but the national teams are good, made up of african footballers who can bloody play!

I think we've settled that he wasn't being racist. He just put all of his words out of context
I didn't put my words out of context. Everyone was eager to bring up the race card instead of having a reasoned debate. I ignored them because I thought they were intellectually inferior, so they didn't warrant my time.

Right then, i have now come to the conclusion that you have no opinion whatsoever!
Well I think it is racist and clearly untrue. If he had asked why Africans don't win Olympic swimming gold medals he would have had a valid point.MCfcBOB said:The racist bandwaggon left about 3 pages ago.mr t said:What a fucking ridiculous racist post.

I would say that Africans tend to be better athletes than flair players. That's not racist, that's just an observation which is fair enough really. Nothing racist about it I don't think. You look at the top African players and the vast majority of them build their games on pace and athleticism. Drogba, Eto'o, Essien, Muntari...
Name a current African playmaker (you'd all say Okocha otherwise)? It's hard. Now name an African destroyer? Much easier, at least for me.
Not agreeing with the OP's sentiments entirely but his gist is pretty fair.

Are you not offering an example?
I must have gone to a better school than you, if all you can do is cry "racist." Imbecile.
