> Soccer/football is easier to understand since it's such a basic game compared to the NFL it just feels a bit shallow watching something with such little strategy.

Hahaha, what stupidity

> The game of soccer is simple, this is true, but this is not to say that playing soccer is easy. Johan Cruyff once said something that I have always found very interesting: "Playing football is very simple, but playing simple football is the hardest thing there is.” It’s true, soccer is also a game of skillful art, and only few get to master it.

You don't need to link 10 articles about football, mate. I have watched it my entire life

To say there's no strategy is idiotic and shows someone with zero understanding of the game

There is less strategy than NFL/American football. I was leading into how NFL's variety and complexity lead to it being a more compelling and entertaining sport moment by moment compared to football/soccer.

There is a lot of strategy in football, but by comparison to American football it is a lot more simple.
