Bad football story
If you're here for drama and don't care about football at all, this is for you. If you actually want a football story, you'll be disappointed.No football team plays with zero subs from episode 1, and they have no plan to bring any on. Midway through, one player misses a game and they play with 10 men for 90 minutes lol. I don't even think you can start a match with less than 11 players.
The coach is the worst in football. Zero emotion, just sitting there acting cool while his team gets beaten. No real football coach manages like that, and this guy supposedly coached a club in Southampton, England.
The camera angles make it impossible to watch as football. All close-ups, no tactical view whatsoever. Football is about strategy and team play, you understand the action from watching the whole field. How do you watch soccer from a close-up angle?
The hero club lost 11-0 to supposedly the best team in the league, then two months later beat the same team in the final. If you get beaten that badly, either your defense is terrible or their attack is elite. Either way, I don't see how they choke in the final without scoring a single goal. I've seen plenty of miracles in football, but I've never seen an 11-0 loss turn into a 1-0 win.
There are more problems with this series but I'll stop here. It just made me angry.
