@elcapitanoguti @Judgmental_Jim @Denzell_Of_NSH @BillMillertypg Never met someone from turkey who doesn’t fall for that bait

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@elcapitanoguti @Judgmental_Jim @Denzell_Of_NSH @BillMillertypg Why is someone from eastern Greece siding with Americans

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@RazzberryYams You guys need to stop twisting things so much. No one has complained about snakes, the Swiss Fa posted a warning to players and staff informing them of where snakes will be found near the site so they can avoid them.

@JohnkGK @Aitch_GKR @RazzberryYams It is on the US, this is the first time we’ve had dynamic ticket pricing and fifa themselves said that decision was influenced by the US

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@Samwinton99 @bigl3sbiancrush I’ve noticed this a lot recently, a lot of Americans will twist the point you are making into one they know you can’t defend

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez No but you can find 100s of papers on how a crowds atmosphere drives a teams performance which you just ignore based on feelings. The “soul” of it is obviously unquantifiable and is just my personal belief

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez You are no longer arguing on facts and are going off values and personal beliefs. If you don’t like how it is just watch it on the tv or save up and watch it from a box

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@Judgmental_Jim @Denzell_Of_NSH @BillMillertypg Here’s people from Brazil, Mexico and France complaining. You’ll also find lots of complaining from people from Africa and the Middle East as your country treats them like shit as they come to watch

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez It’s partly tribalism in team sports which you don’t get in individual ones to anywhere near the same extent and part that it does drive your team on. Go watch some clips of lockdown premier league. The level of football was still incredibly high but it was soulless

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez Because nobody is claiming crowd noise turns an average person into a professional footballer. We’re talking about tiny performance differences between athletes who are already among the best in the world

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez That’s a complete non sequitur. Crowds affecting performance doesn’t mean the sport is about appeasing crowds

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez Just because you believe a crowd wouldn’t affect your own ability to preform to your best doesn’t negate the most researched affect in the field

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez For the sports it fits I do too. Football just doesn’t have that culture

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez It’s not a mindset, it’s the most replicated finding in sports psychology. Players aren’t unfeeling robots, they are humans. Your own ego doesn’t define reality

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez Why watch a film when I can just watch the last 5 minutes. Why read a book when I can just look at the last page

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez Because a fan base does drive on field performance. A player will give the extra 5% they didn’t know they had when the team is behind them. It’s a fact if you look into any sports psychology that it doesn’t improve performance

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez Depends how you watch the sport. When I watch motorsports I’m watching it for the sport rather than supporting a team. If I’m watching Tottenham play all I care is that Tottenham win idc how good the football is.

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez See theirs nothing I love more than as our fans start getting louder as the oppositions slowly quite down. You feel more connected to the game.

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@MT_TRAP_CAT The song it’s coming home is literally taking the piss out of England. This is how it starts you pleb. Dominating when you were the only ones taking it seriously doesn’t mean that America suddenly has a good knowledge of world football

[Sam⚪️ @THFCSJP]

@SlowMescalero @aragon1500 @smith_john37671 @imkikosuarez Everyone shouting when the screens and speakers tell you too isn’t an atmosphere. I’ve been to plenty of college football games, they are great but it’s not football
