“However good an English team is, they will always have an additional advantage. It is that European players know that their English opponents will come at them in the belief they will win, and they can always be guaranteed never to stop fighting. They have a natural aggression that they are born with. If it ever goes, English football will lose its most valuable dimension.” IfsKnowsFightingWinningBeliefBornLosesNaturalPlayerTeamFootballAdvantageValuableSoccerAnalysisOpponentsDimensionsAggressionEnglish Football Author:Johan Cruijff
“The myth stems from the belief that writing is some mystical process. That it's magical. That it abides by its own set of rules different from all other forms of work, art, or play.But that's bullshit. Plumbers don't get plumber's block. Teachers don't get teacher's block. Soccer players don't get soccer block. What makes writing different? Nothing. The only difference is that writers feel they have a free pass to give up when writing is hard.” GivingFeelsWritingArtDifferentHardPlayFormBeliefProcessDifferencesTeacherPlayerGiving UpMythBlockSoccerBullshitStemMysticalPlumberSoccer Player Author:Patrick Rothfuss
