I really don’t get over why India such a big country with a population of over 1 million of people is not good at football.I would like to see India in a world cup but as far as I know India football team is rubbish.Look at Uruguay that having just 3 million population have bunch of players playing around the world and above all have a great football team.Yet,They’ve been world cup champions once.Greetings from Peru all of you guys and I hope to see my team playing again in a world cup.It’s been so many years since we last played one.
Hello Raulito,
Good to hear from you – some interesting comments indeed. I agree that it is a little strange to see not only India with over 1 billion people but also China with an even bigger population struggling to make any headway on the world football stage. I think your example of Uruguay is a really good one – how has such a small country been able to consistently produce top class players throughout the years? As for Peru, I am sure that they will return to the World Cup at some stage – do they have any good young players coming through? Who is the national team manager? How about Solano, would he ever think of becoming the national team manager?
