Football Fanats 2015

Biszem-baszom... quite a hard one to translate.

Trollfoci is a popular football blog, creating several football memes (especially about Hungarian football). They started to use "biszem-baszom" for all foreign football leagues (and even for World Cup, Champions League, etc.), which is a funny sounding and slightly ugly expression for insignificant things (baszni means "to fu.ck"). Of course this is just irony. They used to caricature the Hungarian football in a very shameless way.

However, their main goal is to advertise the Hungarian national team and club football - that's why their slogan is "Say no to biszem-baszom!". It can be weak or corrupt, but still: it's our league.

Well... at least you guys are not the only ones blessed with a Heavenly National Football League

The same in Brazil?

Even if Brazil is one of the strongest national teams, the domestic league doesn't seem to be half as good as La Liga or Bundesliga. Once I started to watch a Corinthians match, but couldn't stay awake, because the game was damned slow and boring, with static tricks*. Of course still ways better than Hungary.

* Neymar was quite good in that when he played in BRA league - now he learned in Barca how to make less attractive, but more effective tricks while moving. But he's still far from Ronaldinho, who was the king of flip flap.

The same in Brazil?

Mutatis mutandis, yes. Overrated players, wildly inconsistent teams (due to selling good players too quickly and/or plain mismanagement); slow and boring games (as you noticed) ruled by unimaginative, conservative tactics; a puffed-up and overreaching "Superior Court of Sporting Justice". Corruption and rule-bending were perhaps a little worse fifteen or twenty years ago, but we still have absurd situations like the Portuguesa/Héverton affair in 2013.

Once I started to watch a Corinthians match, but couldn't stay awake, because the game was damned slow and boring, with static tricks*.

Corinthians is actually playing decent football now that Tite (a much better manager than Mano Menezes) has returned, though they remain a patient, counter-attacking side. For the past two years Cruzeiro was miles ahead of everyone else as far as attractive football goes, but now they lost several important players, and I'm not currently following their games to see how they are coping.

Cruzeiro are on a reconstruction process after a lot of changes. I believe what this will be a transition season.

Corinthians is with the best team at this moment. Tite gave a personality for the squad.

São Paulo have good players,but does not have much collective consistency. Looks like a crowd of players.

Atlético Paranaense is giving the impression that will fight against relegation on National Championship: no good acquisitions to supply some exits and no new players for some weak sectors, like the defense and the creative midfielder sector. When Gustavo is the best team's center back, it's a advice that have several problems.

Incredible goal of Jhonatan, goalkeeper of Operário Ferroviário (Ponta Grossa), against Nacional (Rolândia):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2Un-xyRrkA

Ponta Grossa and Rolândia are two cities with malicious name in portuguese. Ponta Grossa means thick tip and Rolândia is the city of Roland (german warrior), but Rola is a therm for penis.

I was waiting for that post 

An interesting situation now with no English teams left and just one German team. Paris SG is the northernmost team left.

This table always tells the story: http://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/data/method4/crank2015.html
Worst season for England in the past years, while the Italian teams show a very good performance related to the previous years. Germany is not running a bad season despite having only Bayern in the CL 1/4 finals. Another bad season for Netherlands, that is getting embarrassing for them. Great season for Croatian teams. Weakening performance by Portugal, improving performance by Kazakhstan, Iceland and Slovenia.

Thank you. I want to see winning all argentinian teams but San Lorenzo. From the 5 big teams they are the smallest in everything. Local league, international cups, fans, but they have the greatest ego. Sad fans they are.
