It is very interesting data. Lots if interesting ways to look at data. There may also be one that may look at teams with Managers who are coaching their own national teams v Managers coaching other national teams, etc.Molue Conductor wrote: ↑Sun Dec 11, 2022 3:16 amWorld be interested to see countries ranked by number of players by birth.
Probably a couple of organizational things which make it easier to play for these countries. I would not lump all francophone countries together though. Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia stand out. Senegal is probably the best of the rest. Foreign born Nigerian players identify with the culture but our poor organization holds them back from representing Nigeria.

True. I think the francophone African youth in diaspora also seem to excel in football, perhaps because of focus, sheer numbers of them and talent.camex wrote: ↑Sun Dec 11, 2022 5:38 pmI think there is more to it.
