If having the best striker in the world gave a country the chance of winning the world cup then why while having haaland, Norway couldn't even classify in a group with turkey. Good teams have a balance between team work and individual skill, try good names without team work and you get a team like PSG. People who know about football, what do you think? |

Yeah ur right at the end of the day football is a team sport and Haaland won’t win a World Cup cause he hasn’t got the same quality and talent around to support him |

Exactly what I was thinking. Haaland is arguably the greatest striker in the world right now but at the end of the day football is a TEAM sport there's only so much a striker can do if the service from his teammates are not there - i.e. Norway not even qualifying for the world cup despite having one of the best strikers in the world. However having a full team of world class players makes a massive difference - i.e. Man City this season, where Haaland has scored 15 goals in just 9 games in the Premier league thanks to the likes of players like Kevin de Bruyne. ALL 11 players are integral to the success of a team and great players bring out the best in each other; having a team of average players and the best striker isn't going to get you anywhere. At the end of the day football is a team sport and TEAMWORK > individualistic egoism - I'm sorry if I'm rambling but I just can't take this anime seriously as a football anime especially considering that it's released after Ao Ashi. |

MadanielFL said: Pretty sure Salah carried Egypt on his own to the world cup in 2018. It's a proof that sometimes one superstar player is enough to change a whole team, even if obviously they would never win the world cup. Plus Norway is in Europe while Japan is in Asia, it's different levels of competition. 1. Yes, only to end up last with 0 points, couldn't even win against saudi arabia and they were like REALLY bad already 2. That further proves my point that the blue lock concept is flawed because winning the world cup is literally the point of the project, they literally said it like 20 times just this episode 3. You got a point but if Norway couldn't beat turkey in points despite them being no better than a decent team then they never had a chance of even getting too far in the world cup |

I just expected the fiction to be somewhat grounded to reality but it seems like we're getting some form of battle royale involving egotustical strikers rather than a football anime. I guess I should have actually read the synopsis instead of getting excited that there was another 'football' anime this year. My bad. |

Mbappe might be spectacular but even so he needed people to back him up, he didn't even score nor assist in QF and SF, hell, even in the final he scored the 4-1 when everything was pretty much said and done, france had a whole team not just one player |

This is a pretty dumb topic. 1) Blue Lock would NEVER exist in the first place because of all the logistical, ethical ,etc. problems of making hundreds of highschool athletes compete in an extreme sports competition over months and months. Like they didnt even know what they were selected for until they got there lmao. Arguing this isnt realistic is redundant. 2) IF you talk within this story's logic, the whole point is that they are basically trying to find a superstar Forward in which they say Japan lacks amongst, keyword amongst, other things too. |

You can only really enjoy this series if you 'abandon common sense', like that Ego guy said. I'm just concerned for the people who get their first exposure on football / soccer through the series. |

Blue Lock's logic is flawed, but they did mention that Japan has first-rate teamwork, which other countries like Norway don't have. And look at the current Japanese squad, they have great defenders like Tomiyasu and great midfielders like Kubo But for forwards? They don't have anyone exceptionally quality ones. Blue Lock's project is to give birth to the best striker they ever had, with nothing to do with the whole squad of national team. |

I think I'm gonna consume it on a fiction basis because no matter how good you become as a forward, you're not gonna carry a whole nation by yourself. You need those awesome players in the back as well. It is such dumb logic in this anime where like they're saying, Don't give a fuck about your team, just think about yourself and play for yourself. So fucking DUMB!!! At the same time, I guess they're looking for a forward in this. So, it can make sense if that's the only thing they're looking for. But, hey I'm gonna see how it actually goes... |

yeah well it is just an anime so it works. you can't do anything without good teammates irl obviously. also thank god haaland isn't from belgium with de bruyne bc there'd be no point in even playing a world cup. just give em the trophy lmao |

vinowo22 said: I don't think it's a good idea you literally compare the Norway team to BL. Other than Haaland and Odergaard, some players are just ehhh. In case point in Japan, every position except the attacking ones are already world class. Remember, this is "Striker-centric" story only so it doesn't have to include the midfield and defenders in this kind of logic. If there's any position that ego is essential thing, its the striker ones.If having the best striker in the world gave a country the chance of winning the world cup then why while having haaland, Norway couldn't even classify in a group with turkey.

Pre_Yum said: Man, the logic is applicable only to strikers because if you noticed if you really looked closely to the majority of characters in BL, all of them played as forwards. Another case is Japan has already has some world-class players in other positions that are competitive against the "European and South American giants", therefore they really need a striker that can actually put them in the top of the world. Take for another example is Man city, where they have a really good lineup but can't win in Champions League because as much as it was a stacked team, their finishing was not their best they have. Now that they get Haaland, there's a chance they might actually get CL.I think I'm gonna consume it on a fiction basis because no matter how good you become as a forward, you're not gonna carry a whole nation by yourself.

of course, there is nothing wrong with having the best striker on your team, but winning the World Cup is another thing, it's not necessary to have the best striker to win the World Cup. the proof that having the best player isn't guarantee you to win the World Cup, just take a look at Messi and Cristiano, two players that won Ballon d'Or the most are never won the World Cup, and if you add more the 3rd - 5th (Platini, Cruyff, van Basten, all of them won the award thrice) haven't won the World Cup either.. so yeah, Blue Lock shouldn't bring that winning the World Cup in the first place, he could just say that he want to make the best striker in the world from Japan, and it's still an ambitious project |
Oct 8, 2022 11:24 PM

Don't quote me on this, but I think Ego said something like" Japan has quality players but all they're missing is a world-class striker". That's where Blue lock comes in. Obviously, a world-class striker doesn't guarantee you trophies as we see with that lesser North London team that has 0 major trophies in more than a decade. A world-class striker puts Japan on the map, It could make them serious contenders for the world cup. Everything is kinda exaggerated to fit with the theme of becoming an egoist but I think the Blue lock project is something I wouldn't mind having in real life tbh. |

I liked the episode itself, but not knowing the original source I was quite pissed by the whole striker stuff. Not only it doesn't properly make sense in a football way, but it make the show, imo, a bit less appealing. It would've been interesting to show also very good defenders and midfielders. Also, strikers gotta play against defenders, and none of the 300 is a def, so if they play against each other they'd find dribbling and shit like that way easier, considering none of the contestants is supposed to know how to defend particularly well |

Cectis said: If you use Mbappe as the comparison then the anime would make 100% sense. How so? France won 2018 cup with literally the best team, along Belgium, and they even find a way easier final against Croatia. France didn't win world cup with Mbappe, they won with Giroud, Pogba, the only decent performance of Pavard, Lloris and so on. They had and currently have an amazing team. Maybe the best example might be Mbappe at Monaco, when they reached I believe semifinals of CL? But yet they had a more than decent team that overperformed. And about Mbappe at PSG, well, they currently won absolutely nothing outside France. Which, for that team in that League, is literally the bare minimum, if I was a PSG coach and I wouldn't win the League, I'd make harakiri out of embarassement |

Thank god I am not the only one who realized how flawed the premise of this show is. Not just Haaland, but Lewandowski, Drogba, Lukaku, Ibrahimovic, all of them A class strikers, all of them haven't won the wold cup. Gee I wonder why? Maybe it's too early to judge and there's some kind of a twist coming but I'd like my shows to at least make a little bit of sense to help with the suspension of disbelief. |

They have both been brilliant for Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively in their prime winning countless trophies but they were bever able to fully translate their abilities with their comparitively weaker national teams when it came to the World cup. |

It’s a team sport lol em i the only weeb who actually follows football on here Dude you need a balanced team to win a World Cup You need a good goal keeper Good centre backs good full backs World class defensive midfielder or holding midfielder And good box to box or attacking midfielders which ever tactics you want to use… And good wingers And finally a false nine or a world class striker And a world class manager/coach See the line ups of past World Cup teams who have won they have all had legends champions in them… I can name any nation of any World Cup past and name you the starting 11 The thing with Asian football is that it’s still developing… Unfortunately… athleticism or when it comes too football you need either to send your best youth players to Europe to the premier league Or develop a youth academy or youth league in your country Japan isn’t weak it’s always been producing steadily players World class talent hard to say But hidetoshi nakata And Kagawa are two good midfielders from the past And also Nakamura wasn’t that bad either Fowards they had kazu miura but wasn’t world class.. Nakata played in serie a with as Roma 20 years ago Kagawa played at man United in the late 2000s and early 2010s Was good but not world class South Korea have ho min at Tottenham spurs he’s by far Asia’s best player ever in my opinion.. to bad his rotting at spurs 🤣🤣🤣🤣 spurs fans out there haha The thing is before any Asian country can win the World Cup they gotta build a good youth academy and have a strong league or better yet send their players to Europe… 20 years of being a football fan Spanish blood in me Viva españa 🇪🇸 HALA MADRID. Real Madrid 👍 |

But I forgot to mention Japan now days they are producing good youth talent like Abe Takefusa kubo who both played at madrid and barca And Real Madrid has a Japanese prodigy by the of Nakai He’s 17-18 who knows he might carry japan to glory Japan has send a lot of their youth players to Spain to Europe So who knows if they will flop or make japan semi finalists at a World Cup I know japan have been champions of Asia several times But their opposition is Iran South Korea Australia The rest are weak lol |

Some say South Korea paid the ref lol but those Italian fans…. Get angry at every thing |

You are comparing Norway that last time reached World Cup was from like 24 years and japan that in last five world cups they were in top 16 of the whole 100+ countries in the world there times? Now imagine a team with players capable of being in top 16 and they have a machine sticker better than haaland million time that can score each match three to four goals even with players that don’t have that quality of pass and assist? Yea it work this is japan that is better than Norway and this the sticker from blue lock that is better than haaland. |

The Blue Lock project wouldn't be approved in the first place. Executing concepts not feasible in real life is part of what makes animation so appealing don't you think? This series stands out because it's extreme, not even the characters behave like regular humans. |

Good teams have a balance between team work and individual skill, try good names without team work and you get a team like PSG. People who know about football, what do you think? Well, i think the anime cut out a huge part of ego's speech to fit in the tag game to hype up people. Whats missing includes ego's explanation about how japan's cog in machine teamwork mentality works well for sports like baseball with clearly defined roles, and in football it creates great midfielders and defenders that the japanese team does not lack. What they are lacking is a exceptional striker to pass the ball to and create goals, which is why ego is trying to raise a second messi/ronaldo to complete the missing piece in the national team. Its not that they just rely on a super striker but rather they already have every other role filled with good players and they just want a top striker, hence why he said top 1 out of 300 and not top 22. This whole thing is just a tryout for the national team's striker position. |

I've read the manga from the very start and I can ensure you that this is not your regular sports anime like Haikyuu!! You all won't be able to interpret it with rational football thinking so I suggest that please watch it from a different perspective than that of a logical one. [Possible SPOILER!!!] In the first few chapters of the manga, the mangaka has clearly described the purpose of Blue Lock project and why it only focus es on creating an absolute striker, they just haven't shown in the first episode. I hope they will clear it out as it is a very important part, it contains who is Ego Jinpachi and why him, how much Anri (the red haired girl who was standing in the wings during Ego's speech) struggled to establish the project and why Japan needs this in the first place. Please be patient everyone, I seriously hope they will clear it out and if you can't wait, please read first few chapters of the manga. I'm again saying, this is not a regular sports anime. |

Good teams have a balance between team work and individual skill, try good names without team work and you get a team like PSG. People who know about football, what do you think? The key is that it gives countries a CHANCE not a guarantee. Without Haaland, would Norway even be rated as highly? Same goes to Lewandowski for Poland, Salah for Egypt, Eto'o for Cameron, Zlatan for Sweden. Just the sheer presence of these brilliant strikers brings something more than what one midfielder, defender or keeper brings AS AN INDIVIDUAL. |

Not only in the case of haaland, lewa also can't carry Poland to the final of wc....a single player can't carry a team unless the player is Messi |

You need those awesome players in the back as well. It is such dumb logic in this anime where like they're saying, Don't give a fuck about your team, just think about yourself and play for yourself. So fucking DUMB!!! At the same time, I guess they're looking for a forward in this. So, it can make sense if that's the only thing they're looking for. But, hey I'm gonna see how it actually goes... Its almost if they already have a national team and they just need a good striker hmm It's almost as if I already mentioned something like this in my original reply but I guess people don't know how to read. Its almost as if you wouldnt even have to call the premise dumb in the first place if you could have thought of a logical explanation in the exact same post hmm |
