Adam 🍎If that is so then how come South American players are dying to play in Europe? To be coached by europeans, play european football, european standards? If SA is that good in football their league would be on equal footing with Europe
DoggoBecause Europe decimated a big chunk of the world and built their empires on top of the exploitation and bodies of latin american, african and asian nations.
So they are richer and can afford to purchase their way into excellency, spending dozens of millions in great players from all around the world.
Adam 🍎And yet the people that own most or rather biggest clubs are Arabs.
And don't throw some white guilt on me, if it wasn't for European tech and advances SA wouldn't advance higher than Inca's. We were better and we were first, that is about it. If you guys were first you would do it too
NatalijaYou also have a lot more people per country to choose from 🤣 Brazil has 220 million people, kinda surprised you don’t win every time
Yet Croatia has 4 million and they outplayed you 👀
DoggoMessi needed to win this title.
2026>>>>6th title, same 24 years gap as the 4th title.
All according to the keikaku.
:pepebusi:
LhuluChina football clubs have better payment than here lol.
Technology and structure does matters a lot on current sports, having higher population barely makes difference like past centurie.
NatalijaInvesting and interest matters as well, but in countries where football is loved and that have a huge population, it is mathematically more likely to find good players.
LhuluYou may find more kids with talent/potential but it doesn't matter if you can't polish/raise them properly.
I could agree with you if we were talking about football till 80's, today you need high level athletes.
Nigeria has 210m and football as its most popular sport yet they didn't classify for this WC, meanwhile Uruguay has just 3m and play on same league as Brazil and Argentina.
Adam 🍎No money, No population, only love and still 3rd place.
Get rekt Lrazil
Peroroncinoindia should be the best country in the world on football
by that logic
NatalijaThe prerequisite is to also care about football and have football culture 🤡
What’s this Uruguay example? If you want a money argument, you can apply it for France etc. but not that many. Even with all the money, you can’t grow a high level athlete cause you also need talent. And in sense of talent, recruiting hasn’t changed much at all - only training has
