NickH said:Spursking - You're based in Norway, so why no 'reliable info' on Norweigan players? Surely you must see a few about on your many scouting missions to the hundreds of matches you must get to to have all this info?
Love your work though. Funniest part of this site.

NO. That is not the case here, but in the norwegian league, I feel that many of the norwegians have more passion for the game then we have. I do not have any special favorite team in Norway, and I do not have the same passion for this league as many others have. We are more interested in other leagues.
When we get comments and questions all the time on why we have placed that player as a one to watch rather than a reliable choice, etc... we feel it is better to not have the norwegian league in our consideration, allthough we have a few players from the Norwegian league in our "African League" database. There are a few talented african players in Norway, as norwegian scout Stig Thorbjørnsen is an african expert and has helped norwegian clubs with tips on players. He works now as a chief scout for Rosenborg.

From the 'About us' section from Scoutingmanagement:
"We have suggested players like Didier Drogba, Mahmadou Diarra, Michael Essien, Florent Malouda etc. at an early stage in their careers, so we have set the standard high. We have had evidence that we know a little bit about what we are talking about."
