*Mateo Kovačić

Kovačević was someone else.

*Mateo Kovačić

Kovačević was someone else.

Think Real Sociedad, especially 2002-2003. Darko Kovacevic, I think it is. He and Nihat Kahveci were incredibly good that season.

Just noticed that World Soccer makes the same error in their list of 500 in-the-news players in the June issue.

[AlanK]

Great job as always, Lyonnais I look forward to the monthly updates year after year

"A tip o' the hat"

[SteffenM]

Nice also with the average age and domestic players.


Fun that I seen several times Monaco mentioned as a young team.
They are obviously not old, but they are actually not THAT young.

And Atletico, Napoli and PSG below 30 % domestic players.
Not impressive, I wonder there is no stories about fans making actions on the low number of local/domestic players.

[Lyonnais]

so the most domestic team is Villarreal with 9 Spanish players out of 14 (64%) whereas Napoli is the most international with 2 Italian players out of 15 (13%). Average of these 10 teams is 35%

The youngest team is Dortmund with an average of 26.0 years whereas Juventus is the oldest one is 29.7.
Average of these 10 teams is 27.5 years.

[Lyonnais]

Fun that I seen several times Monaco mentioned as a young team.
They are obviously not old, but they are actually not THAT young.

True.
In fact there are a couple of "old" players (Raggi 33, Subasic 32, Falcao and Dirar 31, Moutinho 30) to help the young generation (Mbappé 18, Touré 21, Lemar 21, Bakayoko 22, Bernardo 22, Mendy 22, Fabinho 23)

And Atletico, Napoli and PSG below 30 % domestic players.
Not impressive, I wonder there is no stories about fans making actions on the low number of local/domestic players.

I think that they don't care.
