Africa would have won at least two world cups by now if the europeans hadn't stolen their best players.

They didn't win before what makes you think they would now?

I don't like player poaching but majority of those players are good precisely because they play in Europe just like your NT. Can you name 5 starters of the Argentine team who never played abroad?

There's nothing wrong with players going to Europe since that's where the best leagues are. but that's not the case here, most African players were born and raised there, they weren't produced by the nations they play for

If anything it's the opposite.
European-born players with African descent are joining African NTs and making them more competitive.

the 78 argentinas squad that were world champions had 1 player out of 23 playing in europe, and the 86 squad had 6. Maybe your argument works better for sub saharan africa where the local football is god knows what, but south american and european football were practically at equal levels of quality by the time the Bosman ruling came into effect and yuropeens came like thirsty dogs looking for water to take all of our half decent players

if they had been born in africa they wouldn't be good players.
if anything, africa gets to reap the rewards of having european diaspora. they can just call up decent players from france instead of relying on their own native talents.

>if the europeans hadn't stolen their best players
Can you genuinely name anyone who was born in Africa, played in African academies through at least like 16, and yet still represents a European country? And you're telling me there's enough of those guys from a single African nation to have seriously competed at a world cup?

Just completely stupid.
Ignores the fact that if they weren't in France those resources and academies would have been used on native French players.
Ignores the fact that all these players are from different African nations.
Too many variables to say anything.
