Which makes no sense because Canada has more players then Poland according to Fifa. There is obviously love for the sport here.
I think it's a chicken or the egg question. Does the passion come first followed by success or does the success build passion?
Blah.
And it's not equal. Poland has a handful of ice hockey players and like I said, Canada has more soccer players then poland.
I think if this country poured in some funding so that we could maybe give some financial incentive for top players to stay in Canada we could build up some passion and maybe within our lifetimes, see soccer grow into a major sport in this country.
What would a team of all eligable Canadian players look like? If we took all the players that had the potential to play for Canada.
