Those in the “football” camp are likely European, and resent those in the US or elsewhere that simply cannot get the name of their beautiful sport correct. And those that call it «soccer» hate it when people say «football», which to them is a completely different ball game. Finally, there’s a third group: people like us here at Kick off!, who want to get to the bottom of this war of words. Why all the hate over a simple name?

Hello and welcome back to Euro Football Daily where today we are breaking down why the US is now producing so much football talent. A laughing stock a few years ago, they have invested cleverly in grassroots football and linked up with the MLS to create world class academies.
The results have been instantaneous. Christian Pulisic is now ripping it up at Chelsea, Weston McKennie at Juventus, Sergino Dest at Barcelona, whilst Chris Richards is playing for treble winning Bayern Munich.
