Coooombe Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) That stat is meaningless without a comparison. How does it compare to other top tier leagues? How does it compare to 10/20/30 years ago? ETA to save you some trouble I've looked at the starting 11s in the 4 games in the EPL from the most recent weekend and they contained a grand total of 0 English players under 21. In the last full game week there were 4 under 21s starting out of 220 total players. A worse ratio than us.

One Belgian game does seem like a reasonable proxy for the background rate of the rest of the world. Now I'm shocked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
