We attract the best players and managers from around the world but don’t do the same for refs. Then we wonder why the officiating is much worse than the quality of players and coaches. The quality of the playing would be way worse without foreigners and quality of refereeing would improve with foreigners.
Agree or disagree?
Is there any evidence that referees from abroad are better? Can’t say that’s something I’ve noticed - in Spain Lahoz is apparently one of their best and he’s worse than any in England
Not evidence, but statistically it’s likely that if you make a poule of the world’s 50 best referees that the majority of them will not be English since the English only constitute a small % of the footballing world’s population
