Murax, to be honest most Somalis around really competitive. You should see how much they complain on the football pitch if you give them a little tug.
Soccer Somalis could be really good man. We have world class East African stamina and we're coordinated.

^Somalis love a kick-about but very few would make it to the professional scene. Like you said about personal development, we aren't given the right training and support. Besides, stamina means nothing. That's a given in football/soccer. Every half-good footballer has to have that anyway. The blacks of Africa beat us on agility, strength and coordination and much more. I have seen enough Somalis play in leagues to realize we are so, so limited. We're best off sticking to the track and run athletics like Mo Farah.

Ever watched a Sunday league match between cadaans/madows and Somalis?
It pains me so much when I see the skinnies getting bullied off the ball and also we are the most temperatmental folks on earth. Almost every other match ends with a fight.

Sunday League = power, pace and stamina.

I played for a team in a sunday leaugue in nw london for about 3 matches. only finished 1. polish and african guys ran me off the pitch lol. they have no skill whatsoever its just that they have mad stamina and give you no time on the ball. my legs looked like toothpicks compared to them.
we will have premiership players in the future trust me.

Uk Somalis have no chance at football. Besides being soft wussies, there isn't an organised football structure from childhood and upwards. When I moved here I was shocked that there was barely any clubs but instead after school teams
Meanwhile other EU countries have academies from the start up and every town has at least 1 organised club. No wonder the England team is so far behind Germany, Spain, Holland, Italy and so on.
