I have to back sydneycroatia58, watching Spain play is mostly uninteresting. They move the ball very well but that is about it. I enjoy watching Barcelona play, but watching Barca plus extras who don't quite cut the mustard is not my cup of tea. The most entertaining teams of the tournament were Germany, Argentina, Chile and Mexico. I enjoyed some of the Netherlands and some of the Spanish - but overall they were not all that good a spectacle.

That's the thing though, without goals their style of play isn't that great to watch. I know I hate watching Arsenal when they dominate a game but don't get a goal. It's extremley frustrating watching a team dominate so much but not do anything with it.
They got through this WC grinding out 1-0 wins mainly down to David Villa. Without him they would struggle for goals.
Frustration can be the best form of entertainment. For me anyway. I love watching a team stuff up chance after chance though I won't admit it during the game but after the game (it might take a few days or weeks) I have to admit I had an enjoyable time. It gives me something to complain about during and after the game. I personally couldn't care less if Spain score and win or lose and not score. I could just watch them pass the ball around forever.

I had to re read his first couple of posts to confirm it was leftrightout as well :lol:

I think this blog shows there are 2 types of Football supporters.
One who watches and waits for perfection, creative play, esp communication and linking plays. Very high skill level.
The second want attacking, fast, edge of the seat stuff with plenty of mistakes which opens the defense and allows for shots.
I like a blend of both creative attacking play, while making enough mistakes to make it interesting. That’s why I love the A League. Plenty of “lets have a go” with mistakes.
I’m afraid watching 2 perfect Barcelona “Fozzy” type teams play each other would be boring. No one would ever be able to score a goal. Nil nil.
