You guys are the best US football reactors, you clearly love the game and the skill, and its great to see you 2 banter each other but also really appreciate the game. respect from Bristol UK
I respect that they try to learn the rules and actually care about the physicality. Unlike other channels where there like “he’s so fast he should be in the nfl 🤣”
I can't believe the guy who made the original didn't just say _"games are 90 minutes and then the ref adds on however much they think is necessary to account for stoppages and injuries"_ Saying _"the game ends when the ref feels like it"_ is ludicrous.
Hahah! Yeah, that was just dumb. Haven´t seen this one yet but those I´ve seen before are mostly stupid. (I´ve seen two) So mostly here just for support:P
tbh depending on whos side u on it feels just like that, especially in a close game there is always someone complaining about the extra time. if u r about to loose and the ref gives only 3 minutes extra u curse the ref, if your team is defending a lead and the ref gives like 6minutes extra... same thing happens... what? 6 minutes? what for? u want us to loose? who paid u 😂
There was a time, Juventus one of the best clubs in Italy, was relegated due to corruption in football. It was a team full of stars, some of them left because other big clubs bought them cheap, but some of the best players decided to stay due to their loyalty to the club and to help them get back on Serie A, players like Del Piero, Buffon and Nedved. Legends
When it comes to kids being signed to academies it’s true that not all players gets discovered. But it also makes a real connection between the club and the community. Fans loves it when players comes through the academy and makes it into the first team, specially if this kid is a local boy. A usual saying in football is «if you’re good enough you’re old enough»
When a team gets relegated their star player can stay with them if he and the club is happy with each other. Or the club can decide to sell the star player to a bigger club to recover funds and reinvest into the team. At the end of the day it really depends on what the player wants. There are many cases of very good players staying with relegated teams and helping them to gain promotion into the higher division.
16:00 He gets relegated with his team but usually bought by a top team, so his league status is defined by his club, not personal to him, he can transfer to another team in the Prem and play Prem next season but because the team is relegated his Signing fee will reduce, and in that situation the big clubs are probably watching him, and waiting to put bids in to buy him up. So almost every time a star player on a poor team will get bought up, even if they are not relegated but just a poor team. If The only time they don't, is when you get a big club that is struggling and maybe really bad for a few seasons, but they still have status and some big players still want to play for them. Some clubs like Liverpool, Man United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City (recently), Real Madrid, Barcelona, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Roma, Bayern Munich, Dortmund, Lyon, PSG(recently), Marseille, Monaco, Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord, Celtic Rangers, Benfica Porto Sporting Olympiakos, Galatasary are all big clubs in their country and also have international reputations so they are or in Man city's and PSG's case, became giant clubs, but these clubs will always attract players because of the history or in a few cases, more recent success, so even if they were bad for a few seasons , players would still want to go there and make them good again, as you tend to become a legend if you can be part of a squad that brings a once huge club back to the top. You have to realise that there are teams in the 4th tier of English pro football with fanbases that are huge, Where I am in Bristol they are in tier 2 and 3 (2 teams in Bristol) and they both have huge fanbases worthy of Prem teams, Bristol is the biggest city in this corner of the UK, Southampton is nowhere near as big as Bristol yet they have a Prem team, Bristol is far bigger and has 2 lower tier teams each with fanbases and big as Southamptons Prem team. So if a team gets the finnancial backing they usually rise because the fanbases are not a problem, If people will watch a crap team, even more people will watch a good one
First game I ever went to was City vs Huddersfield at Ashton Gate in probably 2004/2005, LuaLua was playing for them back then and that was one of the best atmospheres I’ve seen in football to this day
@@GPA_Karting my dad used to drag me to Rovers back in the Twerton days lmao, although I did go to the Old Wembley in the 80's and that was kind of cool. I am actually a Liverpool fan via family, but Bristol should have a Prem team , its easily big enough and both clubs have huge fanbases
@@jacksmith4460 I grew up near Bristol, family aren’t into football much so a family friend took me to city games for a few years, was a shame City never got to the prem, they looked good enough a few years ago then it went ro shit again😂😂
Some(few) players will stay in a relegated team out of loyalty and/or sense of responsability...I can think of Del Pìero(AKA 'Dio Piero') and Gianluigi Buffon(AKA Superman or Gigi) in Juventus and also the Brazilian GK Marcos( São Marcos ["Saint Mark"]) fresh out of winning the 2002 World Cup w/ Brazil, but relegated w/ Palmeiras, when he refused a 5 years contract w/ Arsenal to play the brazilian second division... Del Piero had a memorable quote: “a true gentleman never leaves his lady” refering to the nickname of Juventus - La Vecchia Signora (The Old Lady)
Also, when a big Club gets relegated, in many cases, (I can tell from Spain when Atletico got relegated in 2000) most top players have clauses on their contracts to get released in case of the team gets relegated if they want to leave
@@dani.phantm Wrong lol. Real Madrid is the best club of all time. Even their rivals Barca would agree that. Barca is another big team who is just behind Real Madrid. Real and Barca and legendary teams.
I usually never comment on any videos but you deserve my respect. The only reactors that actually show interest and try to understand football. Please keep uploading videos I will keep watching. Regarding star players they usually just get bought by some other bigger team.
No the refs can’t call the game lads. 90mins per game no matter what the score. CB are mainly big strong players. LB/RB are defensive and offensive, depending on how your manager wants you to play. Centre midfield/ centre defensive midfield and also centre attacking midfield are all in the middle of the park, this is what we call the engine room (players who attack and defend ALL game). If a team with a star player gets relegated we have a thing called the transfer window at the end of every season and in the middle of every season, so from may to September and then the middle of the season transfer window is January! (Right now). Last summer just gone my team sold their star man for £100m as a little example 🤦♂️. Speaking about young kids coming through. The only 16yr old to burst onto the scene at a astronomical level was a guy called Wayne Rooney!!! I’m gonna get laughed at here but if he looked after himself like messi and ronaldo…god only knows how good he would have been! That would actually be a good reaction to do…WAYNE ROONEY.
Nah he’s referring to when a game is a blow out and the game will just end on 90 mins instead of going into stoppage time. Sometimes refs would call the game 10 seconds or so before the allotted stoppage time is up as well. Both of those things happen.
@@hpsauce9608 I didn’t just say 10 seconds. I’ve definitely seen refs call a game without giving any stoppage time when there should’ve been stoppage time. If you haven’t seen it then I’ve probably just watched more football than you
@@justlooking1087 you probably have watched more football than me….but I’ve played for Walsall Fc, West Brom Fc and Shrewsbury town Fc so again I say refs cannot blow the whistle early! Should I drop this mic now? You’ve dreamt of being apart of the football world, I’ve been apart of it! 🎤
No,a football match is 1hr 30 min long. The ref ends the game when the added time is done so sometimes a game might be 1h 30 - 37 mins long depending on the added time(injury time). Once it's over the ref ends the match. The ref can't end a match even if a team is losing 10 - 0 and time isn't up And to answer your question about a star player from a relegated team being bought by a top team. Yes, it happens a lot. Jack Grealish was bought by Manchester City from Aston Villa(almost got relegated) for a 100mill pounds Also, a lot of the professionals in the top leagues start playing football when they're like 5 years old. Their parents put them in youth academies and if they're lucky get discovered by scouts from big clubs. The clubs then mold them into professionals. That's why u can have kids at 17 or 18 already playing in top-flight football if they're good enough You need to watch just one game of football or play a FIFA game. You'll understand how football works
False Referees sometimes end the game early and skip extra time. For example a match with 5-0 and the extra time is 4 minutes but when the clock hits 90th minute the ref ends the game and skips extra time. Happens a lot actually.
@@bodigames yeah, but the match is always at least 90 Minutes long. The added time is estimated by and up to the ref's best judgement. Sometimes when the score is very much favoring one side and there is no point in continuing the ref just ends it after 90 minutes, that is true. But most of the time there is a (kinda) standard added time of about 4 minutes. The point is that they misunderstood it in the video. The match will never be ended after 50 minutes only because the score is 20:0. The only way a match can end early is, if one of the sides has less than 7 players available to them (due to red cards or injuries)
Difference is America views adults as children even when they are adults. Once you have gone through most of your puberty by nature you are an adult. You can start to compete physically with adults as long as you have natural talent (messi) or you have trained so hard through your childhood that you have become a master at the sport already before competing against adults (Ronaldo). Of course Ronaldo had natural talent but that wasn't the point I was making, people who know football can look at a 13 year old European player play and be able to tell if they are gonna be able to go pro.
i think this happens because of the system they're in. i see in the usa, athletes played in a school system. you played in high school, go to college, then you try to get drafted. but most football teams all over the world have their own academy. in my country there are schools specifically for football athletes. so the age thing doesn't really matter because if you're good enough than you're old enough
@@dave5961 We have our own academies here finally, however because of NCAA, MLS, NBA, NFL etc regulations, they do not allow people under 18 to play, you can not go professional until you at least graduate high school.. I know international signings are constructed a bit different though but still fall under some weird regulation (mlb for instance)
@@_Jake.From.Statefarm_ In Europe the professional teams has their own academy. AC Milan for example has 13 male teams (and 10 or so female teams), the first team that play in Serie A and UEFA Champions League, the youth team who play the Campionato Primavera and the UEFA Youth League. Then it has the Under 18, Under 17, Under 16, Under 15, Under 14, ..., Under 8 teams who played local tournaments. So AC Milan has 7 years old little players in the club. Paolo Maldini for example started to play for AC Milan at 10 and continued until 41 and now he's one of the manager, Xavi started to play for Barcelona at 11, Messi at 13, etc... Obviously the rules for underage players are different, they cannot sign a professional contract until 16 (in Italy), but they can play in Serie A at 15 or 9.
@@nicoladc89 Yeah, I'm well aware of that. Haha. I said MLS just finally achieved that. Before it was private clubs, expensive ones at that. It was 3k a season for me to play growing up.
Youth academy players are found anywhere. In schools, at the local park, etc. Messi was a youth player at an argentina club, he was soon discovered and pursued by barcelona at a young age. He went to barcelona and developed into a great player. So big clubs like barcelona, etc. Set up scouting networks all over the world to find the best talents from academies or any hidden gems. So usually the good players will be found by the top teams
Imma try answering some of the questions you had: I see your misconceptions with the match ending. The referee can end the match but only after the 90 regular minutes have been played. They can end the match but only on added time. Nobody can stop the match at minute 75 for example if your team is winning 4-0. Referee can only end the match on added time after the 90 minutes or in the first half after the first 45 minutes have been played. Regarding player position on the pitch, the formation and position are just to ensure every player has a "zone" they can cover and be responsible for but they can move freely on the pitch. Even the goalie can leave the area if he feels like to but they are exposed to an easy goal Regarding good players from relegated teams, they are usually bought from the better teams if the team they play for gets relegated. There is no draft system on football
@@dunsonhouse Just to add on to that last part, if that good player gets relegated there's a good chance he'll most likely want out anyways and put in a transfer request
Most teams have an under 23 and under 18 teams which compete in their own competition against other professionals clubs within that U23 and U18 leagues. The 1st team can bring in a player from their U23 and U18 teams into the first team fold at any time if they see that they are good enough.
For example Paolo Maldini started to play for AC Milan at 10 years old. Obviously the youth teams have different rules, 10 years old players doesn't sign contracts or things like that, thay can change team when the want etc...
Watching this made me realise you lot saying "you feel me" is the equivalent of when we say "you know what I'm saying." It was bugging me cause it felt really familiar but off 😂😂
The supercopa de España ( Spanish Supercup ) is the first game of the season in Spain between the league winner and the Copa del Rey winner from the previous season . There's has been times the same team has won both so the other team that gets selected is the one with the most points between the 2nd places , same goes for the Comunity Shield and the DFB Pokal .
There's also the UEFA Supercup , a game between the Champions League winner against the Europa League winner from the previous tournament ( qualifications from each begins June or July and August is the sorting for the Group Stage ) . Furthermore , the Champions League winner from that previous tournament also plays at the FIFA Club World Cup .
When come to grooming and/or discovering young talent(them 16 17 year olds), teams actually have academies where kids can be enrolled from as young as 6 years old, thats where they'll be playing in different age groups as they grow up until they are old enough to graduate from the academy. So you'll find the super talented ones being called up or graduate to play for the first team because they be are that good... I mean they be kill those their age on the football pitch. So basically team groom their own players and if by 16 the first team coach feels you're good enough you get offered a contract.
I forget that US football fans don't really learn all this just growing up. I take all this for granted, feels like i have always known about it. But when you review all the facts like this, it seems like a lot of info to keep track on.
Latch on to a single club and make them yours. There does not need to be any particular reason to support A vs B. However, be aware that certain clubs attract certain types of support, or are affiliated with a specific political philosophy, ethnic group, or religious identity. A prominent example might be what they call The Old Firm, in Scotland. The OF are Celtic FC and Rangers FC, which are both based in Glasgow. Celtic are associated with the Irish Catholic immigrant community, Rangers are the club of the native, ethnic Scottish Protestants. The former are associated with progressive, leftist politics and Irish Republicanism. The latter are associated with conservative politics and British Loyalism. St. Pauli FC in Germany is also associated with leftist political stances, countercultural causes, etc. Lazio in Italy is historically considered a right wing club, associated with Italian nationalism. Side note: St. Pauli are a perennial second division side, although they are having a very good year this season. They are in the promotion zone and just defeated a powerhouse club, Borussia Dortmund, in the DFB Pokal. If you want to support a foreign club and actually see them on broadcast television, your best bet is England - preferably one of the traditional big clubs. The risk you run is being labeled a "plastic fan" - what we may call a bandwagon fan. If you support a less prominent club, or a club from a less prominent league, you are probably going to have to follow them via internet streaming. Ajax in Holland is one of the best clubs in the world, but lots of luck finding them on American television. Finally, there is nothing wrong with being an MLS fan. The league is improving at a dramatic rate. Club support and match attendance are quite strong. And the biggest advantage of all... it's HERE. You don't need to subscribe to special streaming services, or set your alarm to watch your team at 6 AM every Sunday. Bottom line, if you devote a little time and passion, world football will grab a hold of you and won't let go. They call it The Beautiful Game for a sound reason.
There are two transfer windows where clubs buy players from other clubs. One window is in progress. The second window starts out of season. A good example for Americans. Borussia Dortmund signed with American Christian Pulisic when he was 15 years old. They trained him. He made his debut at the age of 17 or 18. After two seasons, the owners of Chelsea liked it so much that they negotiated to buy Pulisic from Borussia for ... dont remember but this was a +/- $ 70 million.
16:40 in this situation, the relegated club will probably try everything to keep him in the club, after all, he is playing a lot and he is playing at this level, maybe next year they will get promotion to the major league, however, if the player doesn't want to stay at the club or the club doesn't have the money to pay the player's salary, they will probably sell him to a big team (which will probably will pay a lot of money given the level this player is playing at) and with that money reshape the team to earn promotion next year
most football clubs have their own academy system where kids young as 8/9 yrs old learn the trade and most countries have separate tournaments for under 17 and 23 yrs old where the academy players get to play. if these players are good enough, they get promoted to the 1st team.
3 subs a game and no tactical timeouts, just a mid-game break. Defenders are often tall rugged units who can head the ball really well, they are sent into the opponent's box when a set piece opportunity occurs. If the other team defends the set piece and sprints up the pitch with the ball, they can catch the first team with their defence on the other side of the pitch. That's very fun to watch and often requires heroics from the goal keeper or the fastest players on the first team to sprint back into position before the opponents do. That's also when a lot of fouls take place where you just push or trip the counter-attacking player over and buy yourself some time so that the rest of your time can jog back into position. When a team gets relegated, the players on contract with the team get relegated with it. Often some of the best players on the team opt to leave the team (due to salary demands not matching the reduced income, sometimes they even insert a clause in the contract ) and find another team in the league they were relegated from.
In terms of the youth players, most teams have a youth academy that kids both local and international can apply for and if they're good enough either they slowly get integrated into the senior team or get poached by another team
messi joined the barca academy which is called: La Masia. the way kids get picked is by the big clubs having scouts to go and watch different tournaments. if they are good, they could go on trail at the club. Messi joined La Masia (barcelona academy) at 13. they go to school, and afterwards train. Messi came from Argentina so he went into a accommodation filled with other young players. little fact, Pep Guardiola was inspired by the father of modern football the dutch and Ajax legend Johan Cruijff.
25:30 kids aged 6-8 start going to academies if they are interested in the game.From there they have under 8s under12s and so on until under23s and those who do well in those leagues are offered professional contracts !
16:30 actually that happened to a top italian club Juventus back in 2006, they had superstars in the team but they were relegated because FIFA found out the management is involved in match fixing schemes, but the players actually chose to stay in the club although offers were coming in from other teams. they came back up the next year.
2 Bundesliga is a Crazy League and a lot of fun games to watch. And the DFB Prokal is one of the best tournaments in the world. I frequent in the US and I love this tournament.
In my prime years i was a classical defender (libero) but, because i was fast my coach said i should pass to midfielder and just rush forward to the offence (while a midfielder took my place in defence) it worked kind of very well
Scouts will often go to school games, at the schools who actually participate in tournaments and leagues. From there they'd offer you an academy place. They'd support your education as you go too.
Basically when the play stops (injuries, fouls, substitutions, ball out of play etc) the clock continues and once the 90 minutes is up however much time the play had been stopped for gets added on so for example if the play was constant for the whole 90 minutes but someone got injured and the play was stopped for the 3 minutes they would add 3 minutes onto the 90. It always displays how much time there is with a plus sign next to the 90
The release clause is something that works both ways. It sort of puts a minimum value on a player by the club, while a player who suddenly becomes really good can have an easy way to a bigger team. Lets say im just an average player with a pretty low salary and gets a release clause in my contract of 5 million. If I then start performing like a super player, then I could start demanding a new contract with a much higher salary with the release clause on my side as it is way lower than what they would otherwise have accepted for a transfer. So I could get a much better contract or just tell them I am leaving for that other team who is willing to get a bargain for me. On the other hand I could be really good and get a really high release clause and sort of insure that I would not just be able to easily leave to a rival top club if they can give me better terms, and if I drop off on level they cannot just easily discard me. So it becomes a balancing act and you sometimes see players being stuck in a top team because their release clause and thus their evaluation is too high for anyone to go for a transfer.
The ref can't just stop the game even if its 30 -0. The game is 90 minutes 45 a half with a 15 minute break in the middle. Sometimes people get injured and the ref stops the clock he has in his pocket. So the game can go on to 95 minutes or further if the injury is really bad or there's crowd violence the ref stops the game while they fix it. This guy is the worst 😂 guide ever.
6:20 any player can run wherever they want on the pitch but managers use formations of which every player has a certain position and certain roles that they rarely move to another position. For example a right wing rarely move to the left wing except on the counter attacks while the tac tic is to overrun the opponent's wing. We see this a lot from real madrid since the way they play rely a lot on counter attacks
I dont like the comparison to baseball, because what you dont see when two or 3 people pass to each other is how much the midfielders and strikers move to create space and 'rooms' so they are open for a pass. Most of the passing around is used to build up a formation where a certain strategy can be used quickly. Also while passing around they are slowly creeping towards the opponents half, so they have less space to cover with quick plays and can already start in the opponents half without doing risky stuff where they might loose the ball just to cover the same distance
Yessir, pedri and Ansu fati. And both are just 18 years old. The club does this so that no one will be able to buy there players without negotiating. They learned there lesson when PSG paid Neymar’s release clause and took him right out of Barcelona.
In the UK for example, there is School Football Leagues. Scouts will make note of exceptional players in these Junior Leagues. Some will be recommended to play for the local City or Country teams. From there some will get selected to play for the National Youth Teams. Whilst a youngster cannot sign Professional forms till 16 years of age, a number will join Academy's associated with a professional football club. Not only will they train with the Club they will play for the relevant "age" teams of their Club. Clubs also have scouts all over the world and talented kids are recruited into their Academy's from all over the world.
1. No G the ref can't end the game early. The game lasts at least 90 mins and after 90 mins is over ref can blow the whistle right away, or he can add additional few minutes to the game if there were some injuries or lengthy stoppages in the game, because the clock doesn't stop when the ball goes out of play or a player gets injured. And the after the additional time is over he blows the whistle. 2. There are no breaks or timeouts other than the actual halftime which lasts 15 minutes UNLESS the rules of the league/tournament state otherwise. For example if a game is played at a super warm weather then there might be a 1-2 minute break in the middle of 1 half. Players run all game, there's no limits to when you can go on offense and when you can go on defense. Also there is no such thing as a shot clock so the attack of one team can last as long as they can keep possession of the ball or as long as their coach instructs them to attack. 3. Each player is assigned a certain position. For example Cristiano Ronaldo for most of his career has been a winger, which means he plays mostly in attack and on one side of the pitch (hence the name right/left winger). When you are assigned a position you don't just stay on that position on the pitch all game but you also don't normally drift far away from it. This separates responsibility so you won't see that all 11 players on a team just mindlessly go chasing the ball wherever it is. A quick breakdown of positions: Goalkeeper Defence - RB (Right back - defends on the right side of the pitch, usually responsible for guarding the opposition's left winger), CB (center-back defends central positions, usually there is 2-3 of them on each team), LB (same as right back just on the left side) Midfield - CM (central midfielder, responsible for controlling the middle of the pitch), CAM (attacking midfielder, usually the most creative player, you can consider them like point guards in basketball), CDM (central defensive midfielder, responsible for effectively being used as a shield for the defense) Attack - Wingers (one one each side, attacking down that side), ST/CF (striker or central forward, usually the guy responsible for bagging goals) 4. Formations - formations basically are instructions on how the team sets up on the pitch. For example one of the most used formations is the classic 4-3-3. 4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 3 attackers. Or the modern 3-4-2-1 - 3 defenders, 4 midfielders, 1 attacking midfielder/creator, 2 attackers. Just some basic points for you guys, hope it helps
These academies are usually just kids teams of a club , like Liverpool U9, U14 U16 etc. And they put emphasis on technique, but at the younger ages it's really not that serious yet. (Although being scouted to one of the big Clubs academies is certainly a big deal.
A "start player" is like every other player on the team...if the team goes down, they go down with it. What usually happens when a player from a smaller team that can be relegated starts getting noticed is the player's agent will try to include a "relegation clause" in his contract. basically they say that if the team goes down and if another club makes an offer equal to that clause then the current club is obliged to accept the offer.
Each player is a PROFESSIONAL. This is their job. Their career. They choose the path they take depending on how good they are. Usually the money is a big factor as they want to take care of their family. If the team relegates some stay some go. The club loses a substantial amount of money so selling their stars is usually the first action taken. There are very loyal players they will stay in one club through thick or thin but very rarely. Messi stayed in Barcelona since he was 12 until they embarrassingly kicked him out through the back door last year.
The Old Firm, Glasgow Celtic v Glasgow Rangers is the most intense soccer game. I support Aberdeen FC in Scotland. I am a supporter of Scottish soccer.
The teams play 90 minutes standard. Extra time is added on top of the 90 minutes and it's decided by the referees BUT while it seems random, it's actually the calculated amount of time not spent not playing on the field due to stoppages. For example the ball goes off the field, the clock doesn't stop but the time it took to get the ball back into play is added onto the extra time, like say it was 15 seconds it would be 15 seconds extra time at the end of the first 45 minute half. These stoppage all add up into the extra time played, so it may end up be like 2-3 minutes extra time added onto the clock because that was how much time was wasted.
16:45 If there is good players in a team that gets relegated, chances are a bigger team will come in to try and buy the player but ultimately it's up to the player if he wants to stay or go. EDIT: (It's a bit more complicated than that but, that's basically how it works).
Just for the record, there are playoffs in the cups, like the world cup or the champions league, where you have a group stage of 8 groups (32 teams), and the two best teams of each group advance to the next stage, that is in playoff format
Bigger teams often buy players from relegated teams if they are good enough and the player wants to go, sometimes players stay and try to get promoted with their team like Jack grealish, was a very good young player and got relegated with Aston villa, stayed with them and got promoted, helped the club to become solid in the league and then left to join Manchester city But lots of players that get the opportunity to get a transfer and stay in the top league take it, just depends on the player and the clubs coming to an agreement
Most pro players started in club's Youth Academy at the age of 10-14 and play in their club's Youth team ( below 18). When they come of age (16,17,18) they can play in the adult team, or are sold to other pro team. Some teams get most of their cash from training and selling players.
I usually try to add some information which I think might be of some value when I comment. But now I'm just commenting to say that I'm really enjoying the football journey you guys are on!
All football players are contracted to their club for a couple of years. The only way to leave the club while under contract is to be sold. Therefor some players let their contract expire after a few years (Mbappe?) so every club in the world can offer them a fat contract.
Teams don't want to waste possession of the ball, and so.try and build the play from the back. The other teams do press together to limit their options and win possession back. Apart from central defenders, players vary positions somewhat. Tactics vary according to which team are being played, but most teams have favourite formations, and styles
The ref doesnt end the game whenever he wants to, the game is being played for 90 minutes and in those minutes the ref gets the call on if there is a freekick or whatever, and also how much added time there will be at the end of each half
Check out Steve Bull, striker for Wolverhampton wonderers. Player that went down to league two with the team he loved and was still called up to play for England as striker. Turned everyone down.
European Football (at least those mentioned in this video) all have their seasons around the same time, give or take a few weeks. They all follow two transfer windows, pre-season and mid-season. The big one in the summer break between the leagues (June, July, August), and a small one in the new year (January). Most other leagues have some form of overlap, but for example the Nordic countries have their mid season in summer and their long break over winter, because it's too cold to play... but enough overlap to sign players. If a star player was being relegated, in the off-season transfer window, some team will probably want to buy him and there will be a few months for that deal to go through. Mid season is often used to pick up players who might fix a flaw in the current line up or allows some teams/players to effectively change if the gig isn't working out for them.
Y’all are kinda correct when you say the defenders (CB’s) aren’t really use to having the ball. They’re job is defending and getting the ball out of danger. It’s almost like you wouldn’t have Shaq or Yao Ming shoot 3’s or a mid range jumper. But the game evolves so now you do see CB’s be more on the ball, have more control, be able to pass the ball and even do flashy moves kind of like how we see Embiid, Jokic, Giannis and big men in general shoot 3’s and jumpers now. So it’s just evolution of the game. But the ref can’t call the game anytime he wants. The game is always 90 minutes plus whatever extra time the ref adds on at the end due to the game stopping while playing such as a player getting injured, players getting subbed out.
There's no limit to where you can run even if you are a goalkeeper you can score a goal if it's strategically beneficial, a player can easily be subbed as a goalie in an emergency...Its a fluid game.....It just however makes more sense for a goalie to stick to his goal post and not go around trying to score goals because of the formation players know where they need to be but If the game changes so does the play. That's how even defenders can score.
@@dunsonhouse Actually, it was $800m! The new Barcelona youngsters are at a Billi now. They set them soo high so that it’s technically impossible to release the player from the contract 😂
In case you were confused, all positions can play anywhere and do anything. Their positions are just recommendations, there are no actual rules stopping them playing any position except goalkeeper.
Yes, 3 subs per game. Even if you already put on 3 new players and another one gets hurt you have to finish the game without that player and play 11v10
teams have scouts, scouts go to youth games and find players for the clubs own youth teams, where they train them and make them into pros, they either sell their youth players or move them into the first team or players that don't make the cut will end up going back to school or doing an american scholarship and go for a different career in the end. Promising youth players will go out on loan to a club in a lower league to get professional experience too, then they come back to the big club ready to go.
Any player can go to any position on the pitch. Even in some circumstances a goalkeeper may go up to the oppositions penalty area to add height to a corner if his team is desperate to score near the end of a game.
If a player gets relegated with his team its up to him to stay or leave but the best players have a relegation clause in there contract so they can be sold.
13:10 Quick note Ending last isn't an automatic relegation. Usually the top 3-4 palces of the lower ligue get to challenge the bottom 4 of the upper ligue (at least nationally, Euroligue and Uefa champions ligue work a bit different)
Football club can buy or rent anyone to become their player or coach, whether he's from relegated team, top tier team, other country team, etc as long as there's agreement in contract. And players or coaches move from one team to another if they like the contract, like C.Ronaldo from Real Madrid to Man.Utd, Pep Guardiola from Barcelona to Bayern Munich to Man.City, etc.
To answer your question: Usually when there’s a standout player on a team that’s bound to get relegated at the end of the season. That player will usually be bought by a different club. It’s rare if a player stays with the team because like in Football there’s no salary caps and depending on negotiations with other clubs he’ll be worth a certain price to be sold to that specific club that wants the player. On the other hand, some players that are usually the standout player stay with the team because they believe in the system and their manager that they have the potential to come back up the following season. Also keep in mind that a specific player can’t only be bought in that specific league, any team in the world can purchase that player from any league. You might have another question, when are players able to get sold or bought? So there’s the summer transfer window that last from the end of the season in May-August, then there’s the January transfer window that just last until the end of January. I hope this answers what you want to know about the sport I love most. Keep doing your thing with the channel, hands down the best reaction channel.

I can't believe the guy who made the original didn't just say _"games are 90 minutes and then the ref adds on however much they think is necessary to account for stoppages and injuries"_
Saying _"the game ends when the ref feels like it"_ is ludicrous.
Hahah! Yeah, that was just dumb. Haven´t seen this one yet but those I´ve seen before are mostly stupid. (I´ve seen two) So mostly here just for support:P
true but the vids from the guy are good (i am a german football fan)
it's true tho
He probably watches MLS, we have some wild ass stoppage times
tbh depending on whos side u on it feels just like that, especially in a close game there is always someone complaining about the extra time. if u r about to loose and the ref gives only 3 minutes extra u curse the ref, if your team is defending a lead and the ref gives like 6minutes extra... same thing happens... what? 6 minutes? what for? u want us to loose? who paid u 😂
There was a time, Juventus one of the best clubs in Italy, was relegated due to corruption in football. It was a team full of stars, some of them left because other big clubs bought them cheap, but some of the best players decided to stay due to their loyalty to the club and to help them get back on Serie A, players like Del Piero, Buffon and Nedved. Legends

When it comes to kids being signed to academies it’s true that not all players gets discovered. But it also makes a real connection between the club and the community. Fans loves it when players comes through the academy and makes it into the first team, specially if this kid is a local boy. A usual saying in football is «if you’re good enough you’re old enough»
When a team gets relegated their star player can stay with them if he and the club is happy with each other. Or the club can decide to sell the star player to a bigger club to recover funds and reinvest into the team. At the end of the day it really depends on what the player wants. There are many cases of very good players staying with relegated teams and helping them to gain promotion into the higher division.
16:00
He gets relegated with his team but usually bought by a top team, so his league status is defined by his club, not personal to him, he can transfer to another team in the Prem and play Prem next season
but because the team is relegated his Signing fee will reduce, and in that situation the big clubs are probably watching him, and waiting to put bids in to buy him up. So almost every time a star player on a poor team will get bought up, even if they are not relegated but just a poor team. If
The only time they don't, is when you get a big club that is struggling and maybe really bad for a few seasons, but they still have status and some big players still want to play for them.
Some clubs like Liverpool, Man United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City (recently), Real Madrid, Barcelona, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Roma, Bayern Munich, Dortmund, Lyon, PSG(recently), Marseille, Monaco, Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord, Celtic Rangers, Benfica Porto Sporting Olympiakos, Galatasary are all big clubs in their country and also have international reputations so they are or in Man city's and PSG's case, became giant clubs,
but these clubs will always attract players because of the history or in a few cases, more recent success, so even if they were bad for a few seasons , players would still want to go there and make them good again, as you tend to become a legend if you can be part of a squad that brings a once huge club back to the top. You have to realise that there are teams in the 4th tier of English pro football with fanbases that are huge,
Where I am in Bristol they are in tier 2 and 3 (2 teams in Bristol) and they both have huge fanbases worthy of Prem teams, Bristol is the biggest city in this corner of the UK, Southampton is nowhere near as big as Bristol yet they have a Prem team, Bristol is far bigger and has 2 lower tier teams each with fanbases and big as Southamptons Prem team. So if a team gets the finnancial backing they usually rise because the fanbases are not a problem, If people will watch a crap team, even more people will watch a good one
First game I ever went to was City vs Huddersfield at Ashton Gate in probably 2004/2005, LuaLua was playing for them back then and that was one of the best atmospheres I’ve seen in football to this day
@@GPA_Karting my dad used to drag me to Rovers back in the Twerton days lmao, although I did go to the Old Wembley in the 80's and that was kind of cool. I am actually a Liverpool fan via family, but Bristol should have a Prem team , its easily big enough and both clubs have huge fanbases
@@jacksmith4460 I grew up near Bristol, family aren’t into football much so a family friend took me to city games for a few years, was a shame City never got to the prem, they looked good enough a few years ago then it went ro shit again😂😂
Some(few) players will stay in a relegated team out of loyalty and/or sense of responsability...I can think of Del Pìero(AKA 'Dio Piero') and Gianluigi Buffon(AKA Superman or Gigi) in Juventus and also the Brazilian GK Marcos( São Marcos ["Saint Mark"]) fresh out of winning the 2002 World Cup w/ Brazil, but relegated w/ Palmeiras, when he refused a 5 years contract w/ Arsenal to play the brazilian second division...
Del Piero had a memorable quote: “a true gentleman never leaves his lady” refering to the nickname of Juventus - La Vecchia Signora (The Old Lady)
Also, when a big Club gets relegated, in many cases, (I can tell from Spain when Atletico got relegated in 2000) most top players have clauses on their contracts to get released in case of the team gets relegated if they want to leave

I usually never comment on any videos but you deserve my respect. The only reactors that actually show interest and try to understand football. Please keep uploading videos I will keep watching. Regarding star players they usually just get bought by some other bigger team.
Thanks my guy that’s mean a lot ✊🏽
No the refs can’t call the game lads. 90mins per game no matter what the score. CB are mainly big strong players. LB/RB are defensive and offensive, depending on how your manager wants you to play. Centre midfield/ centre defensive midfield and also centre attacking midfield are all in the middle of the park, this is what we call the engine room (players who attack and defend ALL game).
If a team with a star player gets relegated we have a thing called the transfer window at the end of every season and in the middle of every season, so from may to September and then the middle of the season transfer window is January! (Right now). Last summer just gone my team sold their star man for £100m as a little example 🤦♂️.
Speaking about young kids coming through. The only 16yr old to burst onto the scene at a astronomical level was a guy called Wayne Rooney!!! I’m gonna get laughed at here but if he looked after himself like messi and ronaldo…god only knows how good he would have been! That would actually be a good reaction to do…WAYNE ROONEY.
Nah he’s referring to when a game is a blow out and the game will just end on 90 mins instead of going into stoppage time. Sometimes refs would call the game 10 seconds or so before the allotted stoppage time is up as well. Both of those things happen.
@@justlooking1087 bro this ain’t the afcons tournament😂😂. And 10seconds ain’t really no time at all? Their not talking about just 10secs.
I remember the Tevez-Rooney-Ronaldo Link up back then, Rooney was unstoppable
@@hpsauce9608 I didn’t just say 10 seconds. I’ve definitely seen refs call a game without giving any stoppage time when there should’ve been stoppage time. If you haven’t seen it then I’ve probably just watched more football than you
@@justlooking1087 you probably have watched more football than me….but I’ve played for Walsall Fc, West Brom Fc and Shrewsbury town Fc so again I say refs cannot blow the whistle early! Should I drop this mic now? You’ve dreamt of being apart of the football world, I’ve been apart of it! 🎤
No,a football match is 1hr 30 min long. The ref ends the game when the added time is done so sometimes a game might be 1h 30 - 37 mins long depending on the added time(injury time). Once it's over the ref ends the match. The ref can't end a match even if a team is losing 10 - 0 and time isn't up
And to answer your question about a star player from a relegated team being bought by a top team. Yes, it happens a lot. Jack Grealish was bought by Manchester City from Aston Villa(almost got relegated) for a 100mill pounds
Also, a lot of the professionals in the top leagues start playing football when they're like 5 years old. Their parents put them in youth academies and if they're lucky get discovered by scouts from big clubs. The clubs then mold them into professionals. That's why u can have kids at 17 or 18 already playing in top-flight football if they're good enough
You need to watch just one game of football or play a FIFA game. You'll understand how football works
45 mins each half not 37 😂
@@Bh34317 45x2 makes 90= 1 hour 30 minutes with extra time usually max of 7 minutes makes 1 hour 30 - 37 mins exactly like he said.
False Referees sometimes end the game early and skip extra time.
For example a match with 5-0 and the extra time is 4 minutes but when the clock hits 90th minute the ref ends the game and skips extra time. Happens a lot actually.
@@bodigames ah my bad, I thought he meant 37 mins each half 😂
@@bodigames yeah, but the match is always at least 90 Minutes long. The added time is estimated by and up to the ref's best judgement. Sometimes when the score is very much favoring one side and there is no point in continuing the ref just ends it after 90 minutes, that is true. But most of the time there is a (kinda) standard added time of about 4 minutes.
The point is that they misunderstood it in the video. The match will never be ended after 50 minutes only because the score is 20:0. The only way a match can end early is, if one of the sides has less than 7 players available to them (due to red cards or injuries)
Difference is America views adults as children even when they are adults. Once you have gone through most of your puberty by nature you are an adult. You can start to compete physically with adults as long as you have natural talent (messi) or you have trained so hard through your childhood that you have become a master at the sport already before competing against adults (Ronaldo). Of course Ronaldo had natural talent but that wasn't the point I was making, people who know football can look at a 13 year old European player play and be able to tell if they are gonna be able to go pro.
i think this happens because of the system they're in. i see in the usa, athletes played in a school system. you played in high school, go to college, then you try to get drafted.
but most football teams all over the world have their own academy. in my country there are schools specifically for football athletes. so the age thing doesn't really matter because if you're good enough than you're old enough
@@dave5961 We have our own academies here finally, however because of NCAA, MLS, NBA, NFL etc regulations, they do not allow people under 18 to play, you can not go professional until you at least graduate high school.. I know international signings are constructed a bit different though but still fall under some weird regulation (mlb for instance)
@@_Jake.From.Statefarm_ In Europe the professional teams has their own academy. AC Milan for example has 13 male teams (and 10 or so female teams), the first team that play in Serie A and UEFA Champions League, the youth team who play the Campionato Primavera and the UEFA Youth League. Then it has the Under 18, Under 17, Under 16, Under 15, Under 14, ..., Under 8 teams who played local tournaments.
So AC Milan has 7 years old little players in the club. Paolo Maldini for example started to play for AC Milan at 10 and continued until 41 and now he's one of the manager, Xavi started to play for Barcelona at 11, Messi at 13, etc...
Obviously the rules for underage players are different, they cannot sign a professional contract until 16 (in Italy), but they can play in Serie A at 15 or 9.
@@nicoladc89 Yeah, I'm well aware of that. Haha. I said MLS just finally achieved that. Before it was private clubs, expensive ones at that. It was 3k a season for me to play growing up.
Youth academy players are found anywhere. In schools, at the local park, etc. Messi was a youth player at an argentina club, he was soon discovered and pursued by barcelona at a young age. He went to barcelona and developed into a great player. So big clubs like barcelona, etc. Set up scouting networks all over the world to find the best talents from academies or any hidden gems. So usually the good players will be found by the top teams
I appreciate u guys doin vids like this
Feel like a proud father watching you two guys learning about the beautiful game....
Welcome to civilisation👊🏿😂
there is also the importance of scouts from each of big football club...that's how they find talents all over the world..cmiw

Good idea my guy thank you
@@dunsonhouse no problem man! Thank u Guys for your amazing reactions! Btw: you Guys can watch: top 50 goalscorers of the premier leauqe.
Imma try answering some of the questions you had:
I see your misconceptions with the match ending. The referee can end the match but only after the 90 regular minutes have been played. They can end the match but only on added time. Nobody can stop the match at minute 75 for example if your team is winning 4-0. Referee can only end the match on added time after the 90 minutes or in the first half after the first 45 minutes have been played.
Regarding player position on the pitch, the formation and position are just to ensure every player has a "zone" they can cover and be responsible for but they can move freely on the pitch. Even the goalie can leave the area if he feels like to but they are exposed to an easy goal
Regarding good players from relegated teams, they are usually bought from the better teams if the team they play for gets relegated. There is no draft system on football
Appreciate that my guy ✊🏽
@@dunsonhouse here to help my buddies check the best football posible. You just keep it up guys you the best.
@@dunsonhouse Just to add on to that last part, if that good player gets relegated there's a good chance he'll most likely want out anyways and put in a transfer request
Most teams have an under 23 and under 18 teams which compete in their own competition against other professionals clubs within that U23 and U18 leagues. The 1st team can bring in a player from their U23 and U18 teams into the first team fold at any time if they see that they are good enough.
For example Paolo Maldini started to play for AC Milan at 10 years old. Obviously the youth teams have different rules, 10 years old players doesn't sign contracts or things like that, thay can change team when the want etc...
Undeniably, indisputably and deservedly FIRST :)

There's still a lot you guys can learn but I think this video helped a lot.
I appreciate y’all really learning the game
A good player on a bad team gets relegated with the team unless another team buys the player(transfer).
Some still decide to stay with the team
Refs have to stick to 90 minutes but can add a little more time for how many fouls are made or so
The supercopa de España ( Spanish Supercup ) is the first game of the season in Spain between the league winner and the Copa del Rey winner from the previous season . There's has been times the same team has won both so the other team that gets selected is the one with the most points between the 2nd places , same goes for the Comunity Shield and the DFB Pokal .
There's also the UEFA Supercup , a game between the Champions League winner against the Europa League winner from the previous tournament ( qualifications from each begins June or July and August is the sorting for the Group Stage ) . Furthermore , the Champions League winner from that previous tournament also plays at the FIFA Club World Cup .
Everyone can score even the goalkeeper the position are only on paper but every player can go wherever they want
When come to grooming and/or discovering young talent(them 16 17 year olds), teams actually have academies where kids can be enrolled from as young as 6 years old, thats where they'll be playing in different age groups as they grow up until they are old enough to graduate from the academy.
So you'll find the super talented ones being called up or graduate to play for the first team because they be are that good... I mean they be kill those their age on the football pitch.
So basically team groom their own players and if by 16 the first team coach feels you're good enough you get offered a contract.
Angel di Maria - when football becomes Art 👽👽
You can also be loaned out if the team agrees.. loan doesn't cost a transfer fee but it's still a fee.
I forget that US football fans don't really learn all this just growing up. I take all this for granted, feels like i have always known about it. But when you review all the facts like this, it seems like a lot of info to keep track on.
Latch on to a single club and make them yours. There does not need to be any particular reason to support A vs B.
However, be aware that certain clubs attract certain types of support, or are affiliated with a specific political philosophy, ethnic group, or religious identity. A prominent example might be what they call The Old Firm, in Scotland. The OF are Celtic FC and Rangers FC, which are both based in Glasgow. Celtic are associated with the Irish Catholic immigrant community, Rangers are the club of the native, ethnic Scottish Protestants. The former are associated with progressive, leftist politics and Irish Republicanism. The latter are associated with conservative politics and British Loyalism.
St. Pauli FC in Germany is also associated with leftist political stances, countercultural causes, etc. Lazio in Italy is historically considered a right wing club, associated with Italian nationalism. Side note: St. Pauli are a perennial second division side, although they are having a very good year this season. They are in the promotion zone and just defeated a powerhouse club, Borussia Dortmund, in the DFB Pokal.
If you want to support a foreign club and actually see them on broadcast television, your best bet is England - preferably one of the traditional big clubs. The risk you run is being labeled a "plastic fan" - what we may call a bandwagon fan. If you support a less prominent club, or a club from a less prominent league, you are probably going to have to follow them via internet streaming. Ajax in Holland is one of the best clubs in the world, but lots of luck finding them on American television.
Finally, there is nothing wrong with being an MLS fan. The league is improving at a dramatic rate. Club support and match attendance are quite strong. And the biggest advantage of all... it's HERE. You don't need to subscribe to special streaming services, or set your alarm to watch your team at 6 AM every Sunday.
Bottom line, if you devote a little time and passion, world football will grab a hold of you and won't let go. They call it The Beautiful Game for a sound reason.
There are two transfer windows where clubs buy players from other clubs. One window is in progress. The second window starts out of season. A good example for Americans. Borussia Dortmund signed with American Christian Pulisic when he was 15 years old. They trained him. He made his debut at the age of 17 or 18. After two seasons, the owners of Chelsea liked it so much that they negotiated to buy Pulisic from Borussia for ... dont remember but this was a +/- $ 70 million.
17:48 yes any player can be bought by any team as long as the two teams and the players get an agreement
15:55 yes you go down with them, if you’re lucky you might get brought by another club, it depends on money and contracts
@@MahdMahd1 yeah it’s a good question that’s why I specifically answered it 🤙 love helping them learn
They got messi at 14 they played him in the youth team.
16:40 in this situation, the relegated club will probably try everything to keep him in the club, after all, he is playing a lot and he is playing at this level, maybe next year they will get promotion to the major league, however, if the player doesn't want to stay at the club or the club doesn't have the money to pay the player's salary, they will probably sell him to a big team (which will probably will pay a lot of money given the level this player is playing at) and with that money reshape the team to earn promotion next year
most football clubs have their own academy system where kids young as 8/9 yrs old learn the trade and most countries have separate tournaments for under 17 and 23 yrs old where the academy players get to play. if these players are good enough, they get promoted to the 1st team.
Appreciate the comment family
3 subs a game and no tactical timeouts, just a mid-game break. Defenders are often tall rugged units who can head the ball really well, they are sent into the opponent's box when a set piece opportunity occurs. If the other team defends the set piece and sprints up the pitch with the ball, they can catch the first team with their defence on the other side of the pitch.
That's very fun to watch and often requires heroics from the goal keeper or the fastest players on the first team to sprint back into position before the opponents do. That's also when a lot of fouls take place where you just push or trip the counter-attacking player over and buy yourself some time so that the rest of your time can jog back into position.
When a team gets relegated, the players on contract with the team get relegated with it. Often some of the best players on the team opt to leave the team (due to salary demands not matching the reduced income, sometimes they even insert a clause in the contract ) and find another team in the league they were relegated from.
Playing fifa would really help you guys to learn about the game while having fun
In terms of the youth players, most teams have a youth academy that kids both local and international can apply for and if they're good enough either they slowly get integrated into the senior team or get poached by another team
messi joined the barca academy which is called: La Masia. the way kids get picked is by the big clubs having scouts to go and watch different tournaments. if they are good, they could go on trail at the club. Messi joined La Masia (barcelona academy) at 13. they go to school, and afterwards train. Messi came from Argentina so he went into a accommodation filled with other young players. little fact, Pep Guardiola was inspired by the father of modern football the dutch and Ajax legend Johan Cruijff.
25:30 kids aged 6-8 start going to academies if they are interested in the game.From there they have under 8s under12s and so on until under23s and those who do well in those leagues are offered professional contracts !
16:30 actually that happened to a top italian club Juventus back in 2006, they had superstars in the team but they were relegated because FIFA found out the management is involved in match fixing schemes, but the players actually chose to stay in the club although offers were coming in from other teams. they came back up the next year.
2 Bundesliga is a Crazy League and a lot of fun games to watch. And the DFB Prokal is one of the best tournaments in the world. I frequent in the US and I love this tournament.
In my prime years i was a classical defender (libero) but, because i was fast my coach said i should pass to midfielder and just rush forward to the offence (while a midfielder took my place in defence) it worked kind of very well
Man I love watching you guys, you’re funny af
glad to see you broadening your horizons as Americans ,cause ignorance isn't always bliss
You guys getting excited, made me get excited watching the start of a great relationship with the most beautiful game in the world 🇿🇦
Update: It used to be 3 max subs in the game, but since corona, it has been changed to 5 max subs in a game !!
Fun fact luka doncic used to play for real madrid basketball team before going to the nba and he is still a fan of real madrid
Youssoufa Moukoko got a 10 million dollar deal with Nike at age 14 while not even playing with the first team yet.
Scouts will often go to school games, at the schools who actually participate in tournaments and leagues.
From there they'd offer you an academy place. They'd support your education as you go too.
Basically when the play stops (injuries, fouls, substitutions, ball out of play etc) the clock continues and once the 90 minutes is up however much time the play had been stopped for gets added on so for example if the play was constant for the whole 90 minutes but someone got injured and the play was stopped for the 3 minutes they would add 3 minutes onto the 90. It always displays how much time there is with a plus sign next to the 90
You guys really have a genuine intrest for the sports and your reactions are gold. I'm your third brother!! Love from Sweden ❤️🇸🇪
MOOKIE!!! 🤣🤣🤣 It's funny how he say it.
The release clause is something that works both ways. It sort of puts a minimum value on a player by the club, while a player who suddenly becomes really good can have an easy way to a bigger team.
Lets say im just an average player with a pretty low salary and gets a release clause in my contract of 5 million. If I then start performing like a super player, then I could start demanding a new contract with a much higher salary with the release clause on my side as it is way lower than what they would otherwise have accepted for a transfer. So I could get a much better contract or just tell them I am leaving for that other team who is willing to get a bargain for me.
On the other hand I could be really good and get a really high release clause and sort of insure that I would not just be able to easily leave to a rival top club if they can give me better terms, and if I drop off on level they cannot just easily discard me. So it becomes a balancing act and you sometimes see players being stuck in a top team because their release clause and thus their evaluation is too high for anyone to go for a transfer.
Fellas keep up the reactions. Love the channel - and we all appreciate people whose open to learn about other people's pass time.
Best teams at the moment press the other team from the front . Liverpool, Chelsea , Man city for example
The ref can't just stop the game even if its 30 -0. The game is 90 minutes 45 a half with a 15 minute break in the middle. Sometimes people get injured and the ref stops the clock he has in his pocket. So the game can go on to 95 minutes or further if the injury is really bad or there's crowd violence the ref stops the game while they fix it. This guy is the worst 😂 guide ever.
In football they have youth academies attached to clubs where children are nurtured in junior teams. They also look after their schooling etc.
16:30 look into how football transfers works to answer your question
I love seeing you guys learning a lot!...
6:20 any player can run wherever they want on the pitch but managers use formations of which every player has a certain position and certain roles that they rarely move to another position.
For example a right wing rarely move to the left wing except on the counter attacks while the tac tic is to overrun the opponent's wing. We see this a lot from real madrid since the way they play rely a lot on counter attacks
I dont like the comparison to baseball, because what you dont see when two or 3 people pass to each other is how much the midfielders and strikers move to create space and 'rooms' so they are open for a pass. Most of the passing around is used to build up a formation where a certain strategy can be used quickly. Also while passing around they are slowly creeping towards the opponents half, so they have less space to cover with quick plays and can already start in the opponents half without doing risky stuff where they might loose the ball just to cover the same distance
Barcelona has 2 players with 1 billion euro release clause. So sometimes even with a release clause the club still has the power.
Wow is u serious 😳
Yessir, pedri and Ansu fati. And both are just 18 years old. The club does this so that no one will be able to buy there players without negotiating. They learned there lesson when PSG paid Neymar’s release clause and took him right out of Barcelona.
In the UK for example, there is School Football Leagues. Scouts will make note of exceptional players in these Junior Leagues. Some will be recommended to play for the local City or Country teams. From there some will get selected to play for the National Youth Teams. Whilst a youngster cannot sign Professional forms till 16 years of age, a number will join Academy's associated with a professional football club. Not only will they train with the Club they will play for the relevant "age" teams of their Club. Clubs also have scouts all over the world and talented kids are recruited into their Academy's from all over the world.
1. No G the ref can't end the game early. The game lasts at least 90 mins and after 90 mins is over ref can blow the whistle right away, or he can add additional few minutes to the game if there were some injuries or lengthy stoppages in the game, because the clock doesn't stop when the ball goes out of play or a player gets injured.
And the after the additional time is over he blows the whistle.
2. There are no breaks or timeouts other than the actual halftime which lasts 15 minutes UNLESS the rules of the league/tournament state otherwise. For example if a game is played at a super warm weather then there might be a 1-2 minute break in the middle of 1 half. Players run all game, there's no limits to when you can go on offense and when you can go on defense. Also there is no such thing as a shot clock so the attack of one team can last as long as they can keep possession of the ball or as long as their coach instructs them to attack.
3. Each player is assigned a certain position. For example Cristiano Ronaldo for most of his career has been a winger, which means he plays mostly in attack and on one side of the pitch (hence the name right/left winger). When you are assigned a position you don't just stay on that position on the pitch all game but you also don't normally drift far away from it. This separates responsibility so you won't see that all 11 players on a team just mindlessly go chasing the ball wherever it is.
A quick breakdown of positions:
Goalkeeper
Defence - RB (Right back - defends on the right side of the pitch, usually responsible for guarding the opposition's left winger), CB (center-back defends central positions, usually there is 2-3 of them on each team), LB (same as right back just on the left side)
Midfield - CM (central midfielder, responsible for controlling the middle of the pitch), CAM (attacking midfielder, usually the most creative player, you can consider them like point guards in basketball), CDM (central defensive midfielder, responsible for effectively being used as a shield for the defense)
Attack - Wingers (one one each side, attacking down that side), ST/CF (striker or central forward, usually the guy responsible for bagging goals)
4. Formations - formations basically are instructions on how the team sets up on the pitch. For example one of the most used formations is the classic 4-3-3. 4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 3 attackers. Or the modern 3-4-2-1 - 3 defenders, 4 midfielders, 1 attacking midfielder/creator, 2 attackers.
Just some basic points for you guys, hope it helps
These academies are usually just kids teams of a club , like Liverpool U9, U14 U16 etc. And they put emphasis on technique, but at the younger ages it's really not that serious yet. (Although being scouted to one of the big Clubs academies is certainly a big deal.
A "start player" is like every other player on the team...if the team goes down, they go down with it. What usually happens when a player from a smaller team that can be relegated starts getting noticed is the player's agent will try to include a "relegation clause" in his contract. basically they say that if the team goes down and if another club makes an offer equal to that clause then the current club is obliged to accept the offer.
Each player is a PROFESSIONAL. This is their job. Their career. They choose the path they take depending on how good they are. Usually the money is a big factor as they want to take care of their family. If the team relegates some stay some go. The club loses a substantial amount of money so selling their stars is usually the first action taken. There are very loyal players they will stay in one club through thick or thin but very rarely. Messi stayed in Barcelona since he was 12 until they embarrassingly kicked him out through the back door last year.
You learning a lot, watch more of these ones, they interesting
The Old Firm, Glasgow Celtic v Glasgow Rangers is the most intense soccer game.
I support Aberdeen FC in Scotland.
I am a supporter of Scottish soccer.
The teams play 90 minutes standard. Extra time is added on top of the 90 minutes and it's decided by the referees BUT while it seems random, it's actually the calculated amount of time not spent not playing on the field due to stoppages. For example the ball goes off the field, the clock doesn't stop but the time it took to get the ball back into play is added onto the extra time, like say it was 15 seconds it would be 15 seconds extra time at the end of the first 45 minute half. These stoppage all add up into the extra time played, so it may end up be like 2-3 minutes extra time added onto the clock because that was how much time was wasted.
16:45 If there is good players in a team that gets relegated, chances are a bigger team will come in to try and buy the player but ultimately it's up to the player if he wants to stay or go.
EDIT: (It's a bit more complicated than that but, that's basically how it works).
Appreciate the comment ✊🏽 family
Just for the record, there are playoffs in the cups, like the world cup or the champions league, where you have a group stage of 8 groups (32 teams), and the two best teams of each group advance to the next stage, that is in playoff format
Bigger teams often buy players from relegated teams if they are good enough and the player wants to go, sometimes players stay and try to get promoted with their team like Jack grealish, was a very good young player and got relegated with Aston villa, stayed with them and got promoted, helped the club to become solid in the league and then left to join Manchester city
But lots of players that get the opportunity to get a transfer and stay in the top league take it, just depends on the player and the clubs coming to an agreement
I’m glad i found you guys, cos now I’m sending this to my yank friends who shit on soccer/football. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!
Most pro players started in club's Youth Academy at the age of 10-14 and play in their club's Youth team ( below 18). When they come of age (16,17,18) they can play in the adult team, or are sold to other pro team. Some teams get most of their cash from training and selling players.
I usually try to add some information which I think might be of some value when I comment.
But now I'm just commenting to say that I'm really enjoying the football journey you guys are on!
All football players are contracted to their club for a couple of years. The only way to leave the club while under contract is to be sold. Therefor some players let their contract expire after a few years (Mbappe?) so every club in the world can offer them a fat contract.
Teams don't want to waste possession of the ball, and so.try and build the play from the back.
The other teams do press together to limit their options and win possession back.
Apart from central defenders, players vary positions somewhat.
Tactics vary according to which team are being played, but most teams have favourite formations, and styles
The ref doesnt end the game whenever he wants to, the game is being played for 90 minutes and in those minutes the ref gets the call on if there is a freekick or whatever, and also how much added time there will be at the end of each half
Check out Steve Bull, striker for Wolverhampton wonderers. Player that went down to league two with the team he loved and was still called up to play for England as striker. Turned everyone down.
European Football (at least those mentioned in this video) all have their seasons around the same time, give or take a few weeks. They all follow two transfer windows, pre-season and mid-season. The big one in the summer break between the leagues (June, July, August), and a small one in the new year (January). Most other leagues have some form of overlap, but for example the Nordic countries have their mid season in summer and their long break over winter, because it's too cold to play... but enough overlap to sign players.
If a star player was being relegated, in the off-season transfer window, some team will probably want to buy him and there will be a few months for that deal to go through. Mid season is often used to pick up players who might fix a flaw in the current line up or allows some teams/players to effectively change if the gig isn't working out for them.
best usa reaction channel! big up , love from Norway!
Can you guys react to freestyle skills of freestyles bc freestyling is another world of football!!!
Love fr😍😍😍 keep up the good work
Y’all are kinda correct when you say the defenders (CB’s) aren’t really use to having the ball. They’re job is defending and getting the ball out of danger. It’s almost like you wouldn’t have Shaq or Yao Ming shoot 3’s or a mid range jumper. But the game evolves so now you do see CB’s be more on the ball, have more control, be able to pass the ball and even do flashy moves kind of like how we see Embiid, Jokic, Giannis and big men in general shoot 3’s and jumpers now. So it’s just evolution of the game.
But the ref can’t call the game anytime he wants. The game is always 90 minutes plus whatever extra time the ref adds on at the end due to the game stopping while playing such as a player getting injured, players getting subbed out.
It depends on the team also. Some teams use their cbs to start build up like man city, Barca
There's no limit to where you can run even if you are a goalkeeper you can score a goal if it's strategically beneficial, a player can easily be subbed as a goalie in an emergency...Its a fluid game.....It just however makes more sense for a goalie to stick to his goal post and not go around trying to score goals because of the formation players know where they need to be but If the game changes so does the play. That's how even defenders can score.
Fun fact, Messi’s release clause when he was at Barcelona was £1 Billion. 😂
Is u serious man 😳
@@dunsonhouse Actually, it was $800m! The new Barcelona youngsters are at a Billi now. They set them soo high so that it’s technically impossible to release the player from the contract 😂
In case you were confused, all positions can play anywhere and do anything. Their positions are just recommendations, there are no actual rules stopping them playing any position except goalkeeper.
Yes, 3 subs per game. Even if you already put on 3 new players and another one gets hurt you have to finish the game without that player and play 11v10
teams have scouts, scouts go to youth games and find players for the clubs own youth teams, where they train them and make them into pros, they either sell their youth players or move them into the first team or players that don't make the cut will end up going back to school or doing an american scholarship and go for a different career in the end.
Promising youth players will go out on loan to a club in a lower league to get professional experience too, then they come back to the big club ready to go.
Any player can go to any position on the pitch. Even in some circumstances a goalkeeper may go up to the oppositions penalty area to add height to a corner if his team is desperate to score near the end of a game.
If a player gets relegated with his team its up to him to stay or leave but the best players have a relegation clause in there contract so they can be sold.
Guys look on Karamoko Dembele debut or Ansu Fati. 😅
13:10 Quick note Ending last isn't an automatic relegation. Usually the top 3-4 palces of the lower ligue get to challenge the bottom 4 of the upper ligue (at least nationally, Euroligue and Uefa champions ligue work a bit different)
Academy of Benfica is the top sub -19 players of the world.
Win a youth champions league this year.
In final won 6-0 , crazy game.
Football club can buy or rent anyone to become their player or coach, whether he's from relegated team, top tier team, other country team, etc as long as there's agreement in contract. And players or coaches move from one team to another if they like the contract, like C.Ronaldo from Real Madrid to Man.Utd, Pep Guardiola from Barcelona to Bayern Munich to Man.City, etc.
To answer your question: Usually when there’s a standout player on a team that’s bound to get relegated at the end of the season. That player will usually be bought by a different club. It’s rare if a player stays with the team because like in Football there’s no salary caps and depending on negotiations with other clubs he’ll be worth a certain price to be sold to that specific club that wants the player. On the other hand, some players that are usually the standout player stay with the team because they believe in the system and their manager that they have the potential to come back up the following season. Also keep in mind that a specific player can’t only be bought in that specific league, any team in the world can purchase that player from any league.
You might have another question, when are players able to get sold or bought? So there’s the summer transfer window that last from the end of the season in May-August, then there’s the January transfer window that just last until the end of January. I hope this answers what you want to know about the sport I love most. Keep doing your thing with the channel, hands down the best reaction channel.
