why have Belgium got all these....

http://sotb.bluefields.com/sotb-topics/thepros/why-belgium-will-win-the-2018-world-cup/

(link slightly out of date...but....)


Just ridiculous isn't it....we have one of the best leagues in the world, & could never boast the calibre of the current crop of Belgians

Just exactly where have they all come from...are Belgian football academies & or schools the envy of the world...? I don't think so


Personally I'm glad Chelsea have Courtois Hazard & Lukaku in their ranks

England & The FA need to be taking a long hard look at themselves....

Belgium have got some great players but nobody is going to start talking about them until they actually qualify for a big tournament.

Maybe some of their players are still a bit young. Wait unitl Euro 2016 or the World Cup in 2018.

There was an article last year about the Belgian team that outlined the problems they are having getting their extremely talented team to work together, essentially they are one of the few international teams in Europe that has a language divide given that half the team come from a Flemish or Dutch area and the others come from a French area or even grew up in France as Hazard did.

They should however get over this and perform well at a major championship but its a stretch to say they will win anything. The Netherlands' golden generation was far better and they failed to win the World Cup. The WC is hard to predict unless someone is so obviously dominant like Spain are

better training schemes? high numbers of players in foreign leagues? who knows, Switzerland and Austria seem to be producing some interesting talents as of late as well the spread of great players is shifting a little, a football fan from the 50's might be shocked as to why Hungary are not producing superstars anymore
