Thierry Henry explains why Spanish football has been so dominant 🇪🇸💪 | UCL Today | CBS Sports

It is in essence FCB roots

Quello che dice vale per il Barcellona e per la selezione nazionale spagnola. Il Real Madrid invece ha un'altra filosofia, comprare i migliori giocatori ed inoltre si avvale di costanti e continui vantaggi arbitrali.

Muy interesante el punto de vista de Henry, nunca lo había pensado.

Los jugadores son muy buenos pero los arbitros son los peores

Spanish football? Speak clear: Real Madrid

dejate de tonterias

Q pinta la foto del Madrid aquí, si el Madrid no juega una mierda, poner la foto del barsa

I didn't become a professional player; I quit early. I didn't have the necessary level of commitment lol. But I did play a lot.

What I can say is that here in Spain, kids start playing early, and in addition to playing on their own team, they often enroll in soccer academies where they also meet other kids who play on other teams in their regional leagues. Therefore, as a player in your generation and in your region, you end up meeting many teammates you'll meet on your team and against yours.

I trained with my team three times a week and then also at the soccer school in my city (in practice all week in season). When the season ended, we continued with summer tournaments with your team and the school. As you can imagine, you end up making friends and learning a lot. Above all, it's about fluid play, first touch, and control. That's why we train so much with rondos, 'walls' xd?, 2-on-2 football tennis, etc.

Then, as you grow and move up the leagues, there are national leagues and tournaments where the regional teams and many of the teammates you'll travel with have been your teammates and rivals for many years, so in the sub-17, the teams formed are already very competitive and everyone already knows each other.

ps: From the first day they teach you to play as a team obviously xD, the suckers who also don't know how to admit they've made a mistake don't last long in the A.

In Handball and basketball the success and philosophy is the same with less money and players.

For 20 years in England he speaks like an African migrant 😅

Traducirlo 😭😭😭😭

Madre de dios el doblaje da cáncer de sida

En baloncesto también son lo mismo. Varios jugadores de la NBA, por ejemplo, LeBron J. destacó la inteligencia de los jugadores españoles (spaniards). España fue el mejor país del mundo en deportes de equipo, tienen una población de tan solo 49 millones de habitantes

Football is a sport played 11 against 11, but Real Madrid usually wins.

Catalan football. Thanks

Un gusto escuchar oír hablar al gran Thierry con tanto respeto y admiración sobre el fútbol español.
Por supuesto lo que dice es verdad.

I see that many do not know how to distinguish the verb tenses and discuss whether Spain now dominates world football... let's see, blind people of the world, the title of the video is the verb tense is not "to be" but "has been" .....stop for 10 seconds to read, many would benefit from that. READ

🫡🫡🫡ESPAÑA🏆✝️🇪🇸✝️🏆

Parece que todo el mundo sabe perfectamente porqué qué los jugadores españoles son tan buenos, pues ponganlo en práctica, no es ningún secreto. Perderan igual.

It's not the Spanish teams. Is just REAL MADRID!

Thierry is right, lately the Spanish teams don't focus so much on the star but on the group, that's why it works better. But the most successful team in XXI century until now has been Real Madrid, and it was successful in both ways, with big stars during the Zidane as a player and coach era and with rather normal players and a very fine team under Carletto (in particular last 2 Champions won). So both things are possible. The issue to count on stars is that the day your stars are down you lose (except exceptional stars like Messi or CR).

La filosofia del futbol en España es la filosofia del lobo, en la que lo importante es hacer fuerte a la manada.

There are many players out there that are a lot better the professional players. It’s about opportunity and marketability. However, when it comes to playing futbol it’s about the brain over the physicality. Being fast means nothing if you lose the ball easily. Having fancy tricks means nothing if the end product is wasteful. Yet, the simple is always the most efficient and also the less sought out for. Many players could benefit from learning how to dance before learning how to kick a ball. Football is about using your brain and body in unison. Ask any professional dancer…if this went over your head then you’re probably mid and that’s okay.

Por favor...será que Henry no se toma el tiempo en ver los partidos.

Dominante?.

Spanish football ❌
brazil and France football ✅

Why it WAS so dominant.* Spain and Spanish teams are still doing well but they're nowhere near how dominant they were in the Xavi and Iniesta era.

You really start seeing patterns once you follow people like mansaarnault. That whole second half felt... directed

The fact that Thierry Henry was spot on at everything he said, Spain is again playing a final, three finals in a row, only God knows what will they do in the World Cup, Spain is a rising meteor!!!!

I do love Spain and their football (arguably, national team have underperformed)... but this year... the question should be why English clubs dominate football... Europa, Spurs (could only lose to another English club), Conference League Chelsea... ok, so women's football, which is now fantastic... England (Arsenal)... ok so Champion League Men Final this year... no English club.. but also no Spanish club... its Italy v France (love Italy... sorry Frogs).... love football ..

I would also add that the Spanish language is great for collecting south american players ( even brazilians ), and the climate is a big plus. the players are people with lives to enjoy outside of the game.

02:26 la forma de jugar al fútbol refleja nuestra mentalidad hispana, el colectivo es lo importante sin minar la individualidad, el dia que lo entendamos conscientemente, volveremos a ser un imperio

Madrid is not a good example, but Barça play with the structure of la Masia, and not only about players, also the style. Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, they were not only players, they were the soul, the brain, and the mind of the game, in Barça and in the national team... They won all in 2 years, all... And now Yamal,, Cubarsí, Pedri, Balde... Watch out!

Henry stands out more with Carragher giving his opinion at his side.

richard saying foden lol

They have players that are not robots . They play as team they play with creativity ..

Theirry knows so much ball. He was better than all the nba and nfl guys (sans brady) so hes voice has the most sway. But I swear he knows more ball than those guys do in their respective sports.

The key point Henry points out Spain has very, imaginative and creative coaches. That is essential to produce creative players. He points out they don’t just play football, they THINK it. That’s the difference. You need skilled coaches to develop these players, not your typical command style dictators.

Spain plays the new beautiful game! It's nothing like Brazil's '90s futbol but they are consistent 🫶🏽⚽

We are now the BEST because in the last 60 years we looser ever...solo la derrota te hace mejor!!
