I'M UNSURE IF ANY OF YOU ,sorry caps, picked up on the USA chants in the last World Cup.
Quite funny, if you haven't heard them here's two. Fist one is very cringe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jh_VbaAyn-4
and the second one was against England https://youtube.com/shorts/rau997I9Y14?feature=share
Like seriously how backward?

You lot invented the word "soccer." Yanks are just keeping it real. Call the first chant cringe, but it was rocking the stands. They hedged their bets and didn't say: "We will win." It was a profession of faith, a baring of souls, not a prediction.
I can remember sometime in the 70s, there was a chant on the Longside which was shouted out by one guy and followed by the rest of us. Most of the words are lost to me now, but the bit that always cracked me up was,
We are the Burnley.........We are the Burnley,
Longsiders.............Longsiders,
We're gonna win..............We're gonna win,
We never lose..............We never lose,
Now and again................Now and again,
We lose.............We lose.
It's not just the Yanks.
The USA football chants may be a little dodgy but they are as nothing in the cringeworthy stakes compared with the shouts of “Get in the hole! “ at the Ryder Cup etc
Different culture, different ethos but the Yanks are certainly getting better at footy.
Talking of Yanks, I thought Matt Turner, Arsenal's American keeper was excellent against City. Anything close to, or in the six yard box, he was having it, either catching it or punching it clear, such a change from watching the docile fecker in our goal, who most of the time gives the impression of being little more than a disinterested spectator.
That's because most of the time he is a a disinterested spectator.
The new kid from Iraq/Belgium looks a very shrewd acquisition though.
