Well, being heretofore unaware of his work (though i had heard the name) i'm afraid he's not my cup of tea. It was the shouting that really did my head in.

“The rhapsody of football continues. Even when they’re penalties, they’re painted with a beautiful stroke of genius. It’s framed beautifully by the goal and the Picasso of modern football that sees things in a different dimension to the mere humans. He lives not in the tactical book, not in anything that is painted from A to B, Riquelme doesn’t live there, don’t look for him with the simplicity of football because he’s an expressionist even on his penalty kicks.”

someone hits it long, someone gets tackled, the ball gets intercepted, someone hits it long, some gets tackled and so on. occasionally there is a foul or a proper pass.

I think it is more to do with the NLD being possibly the best game I'll see this year and not being able to follow that up. Chess may be a beautiful game, but it isn't an exciting one.
