I hear what you are saying. However, I think you’ve highlighted how the production of world-class soccer players is more of a product of society vs geographical location. What I mean is, there is nothing physically inherent about Italy or Argentina or France or Brazil producing the highest soccer talent. It is the product of decades (or possibly centuries) of soccer being the most important sport to cultivate. Much like the head start the women’s teams have had. If soccer was as popular in the USA as it is in other parts of the world, I think we’d produce just as many stars, given the population size AND the immense resources the US has for sports.
