Assume that you're a football player. Your home country is very good at football while your ancestral country is average. Would you rather play for your home country and be a bench warmer or would you play for your ancestral country and become one of their star players.
wherever i was born
anything else shouldnt even be allowed.
bench warmer and have a chance at winning obviously. Getting less minutes and winning is way better than getting all the minutes and losing.
>Your home country is very good at football
this part is just too unrealistic for me tbqh

for the case of mahrez, he would start if he was playing with the french nt right now but would not even be in any list before this season. he just had to wait tbf
I probably wouldn't get on the bench for England though. They have too many talents. Henderson, Sterling, Lallana, Rooney, the list goes on...
>>68135060
What if you were possibly not good enough to even make the squad?

I don't think it's that simple mate. I guess it's just what country you feel the most desire to represent. Which isn't to say Mahrez wouldn't want to represent France but maybe he his desire to represent the country of his parents was just stronger.
Also, it can really depend on the team that is calling you up, and how they approach you. Algeria probably said "don't play for France, play for us, we'll give you a chance to be a star player, you will be a central part of our system straight away". Whereas France might have said "sorry m9 we've got that position covered pretty well so you're sort of peripheral to requirements"

Wherever I feel more attached to. Being born somewhere doesn't necessarily mean you call that place home. Same with having parents from somewhere or growing up in a third country or whatever
>>68135236
oh sorry, I guess I forgot that your country/culture doesnt value winning
