Ireland at 36 in the coefficients. A bit of a surprise to see Liechtenstein in 34th place. Georgia at 46. Napoli found a gem of player in Kvaratskhelia from Dinamo Batumi.

Good to see some slow progress up the rankings. It'll take a lot more progress to make any discernible difference in terms of skipping rounds. Liechtenstein in a funny one. Country ranking is based on the average club score. Only the Liechtenstein cup winners qualify as they don't have their own league. That's always Vaduz (well, 25 of the last 26 seasons), they play in the Swiss second tier. There's one team in the Swiss fourth tier the rest 6th tier or lower. So far this season Vaduz have reached the cup semi-final by winning 18-0 and 8-0.

More ex-Dundalk academy players in the league than I ever remember, with O'Kane, David Odumso, Emmanuel Adegboyega, Andrew Quinn and Jimmy Corcoran all getting serious minutes with different teams. Even Mayowa Animasahun seems to play a fair amount up North.

It also highlights that we would greatly benefit from a 'B' team and Third Tier to allow more time for these players to develop for our first team.

Guess Louie Annesley's illness is pretty rough, it's enough that he's been left out of Gibraltar's squad for the upcoming international break. I guess they were concerned that he hasn't fully recovered yet and don't want to risk other members of the squad being affected.

Apparently he was hospitalised with it. On the mend now according to club

That does sound bad. Covid perhaps? Either way hope he's back to full fitness soon, he was settling in quite well before his illness.
