Martin Ødegaard and Alexander Sørloth could've made this team. Hans Erik Ødegaard had 121 top flight games in Norway (250 professional), while Gøran Sørloth won five league titles with Rosenborg, short spell at B. Mönchengladbach before featuring in the 1994 World Cup among 54 other caps for the national team.
I'm surprised you didn't add Leroy Sané, his father Souleyman has (Among others) over a hundred appearances for Sc Freiburg and SG Wattenschied in the Bundesliga, as well as 55 caps for Sénégal
Theo Hernandez and his brother are sons of Jean-Francois Hernandez who played over a 100 times for Toulouse, Sochaux and Marseille. Would definitely upgrade the defense.

Chícharo Hernández, Mexico international. -Santi Giménez (Feyenoord) son of Christian Giménez, ex-Boca. -Ianis Hagi, son of Gica Hagi. -Rafinha Alcántara, I've seen Thiago on the list, but his brother should be too. -Saúl Ñíguez, son of "Boria", who played a few pro games. -Mikel Merino, son of Angel Merino, 245 Laliga caps. -Also Nico Paz, Gudjohnsen's many sons, Maldini's son, Zidane's many sons and Joao Mendes son of Ronaldinho for youth team
You missed a bit of lore for Pál Dárdai. He has been on and off the manager for Herta in the last ~10 years, also having been the coach for Hungary at time same time for a period. Márton also has 2 brothers, one of whom plays for Wolfsburg, while the other also play for Herta.
I was about to say, the Dárdai case is probably the biggest Nepotism FC case here by far, not only is there a connection to his father through the same club, but also his brother.
Marton Dardai actually has 2 brothers who are also pro footballers. One of them is also at Hertha while the older brother is at Wolfsburg. Had all 3 of them on my Hertha team that dethroned Bayern
I did a double take too, wondered if it was left in as a little bit of a joke or an actual mistake. I've just spent the last 5 minutes on google images making sure I wasn't going mad when I could have just found this comment =D.
If you just want to add bodies to the squad, you can check out the Ahmad brothers, who are the sons of Fandi Ahmad of Singapore. Probably the greatest Singaporean player ever, he scored in a uefa Cup match against Inter Milan while playing for FC groningen. But unfortunately due to Singapore's mandatory military service, he gave up his European dreams and went back to Singapore and played mainly in Malaysia and Singapore. His 3 sons irfan, ikhsan and ihlan are all pretty good, though I think ilhan is now playing in Europe at 2nd or 3rd tier.
Wiliot Swedberg of Celta Vigo would have been a nice entry since BOTH his parents played for the swedish national team. His father (Hans Eskilsson), with 8 caps, won the swedish Allsvenskan once and his mother Malin Swedberg played for sweden 78 times, won a bronze medal in World Cup 91, won allsvenskan three times and was named swedens best footballer 1996. She has after her career been a pundit for swedish television.
Sergio Conceição has 5 sons. 4 of them are Professional Players. The 5th one also plays football, however, he is only 9 years old. One of them could be an option for that RB position. Also, no Daniel Maldini? That would be the best option for this video, since Maldini grandfather (Cesare) played Milan, and father (Paolo) also played for Milan, making Daniel Maldini the 3rd Maldini to have played for Milan.
Onni Valakari could've scraped the bench here. He's a Finnish player on loan at AIK, and his father, Simo Valakari played in the prem with Derby County with 32 caps for Finland, now managing SPL side St. Johnstone.
Fun fact: Ruben van Bommel is also the grandson of former footballer and Dutch national team coach Bert van Marwijk. So nepotism from both sides of his family.
I think because haaland, thuram, kluivert, chiesa and van bommel can all play striker and have more current ability than delap he probably didn't make the cut
George Hirst, currently plays for Ipswich, son of David Hirst, who was an absolute beast at Sheffield Wednesday and a very underrated striker who Alex Ferguson tried to sign for years.
Next you should do an actual nepotism XI, i.e. find as many sons of superstars you can and put them on the team, based only on how good their dad was (for example Zidane's sons, Ronaldinho's son, Romeo Beckham etc.).
You really should have talked more about the dardai family. Pal dardai was Hertha Berlin's manager last year and he was coaching his three sons Marton, Palko and Bence there. That's pure nepotism!
"Following the release of Keane's autobiography in 2002, Haaland and Manchester City stated that they were considering taking legal action against Keane. However, it emerged that Haaland had stated on his website that he had been playing with the injury to his left knee for a few months, that his left leg did not receive a knock in the game (Keane kicked his right thigh), and that Keane did not cause his long term injury." Source "Haaland admission could wreck case" Evening Standard. 19 August 2002." Though the tackle from Keane was one of the worse tackles that was intentional.
Disappointed not to see Jude Bellingham, Rodyrgo, Warren Zaire-Emery, Daniel Maldini, Lucas and Theo Hernandez and Giorgi Mamardashvili there. Some of them have Dads whose professional credentials are tenuous, but I enjoyed my research and stand by it!
Mostly sub options [at best] for your team but there's a few at Ipswich; Liam Delap (England U21) is the son of Rory (he of the javelin long throws; capped by Rep of Ireland). George Hirst is the son of David Hirst (3 England caps). In defence, Jacob Greaves' dad played League 2 football for Hull (so there's a Premier League CB, albeit a little tenuously). A few years ago, you could have had Alex Bruce (capped by both Ireland's), son of Steve Bruce (309 appearances for Man U).
Did the Zidane's not qualify? there were 4 of Zizou's sons (or are they all not playing anymore?). Luca, Enzo, Theo were all at Real at one point, Elyaz is a new one to me (he's only 18)
Patrick Berg mention!! (I'm a Bodø/Glimt fan) fun fact, Patricks grandfather Harald was a foundational player for Bodø, and Orjan (Patrick's father, Harald's son) has 2 brothers who also played. Patrick's cousin plays for Bodø's women's team. 3 generations, all at Bodø/Glimt
@@kagani6202 Tbf he's right. Haaland wasn't subbed off after Keane's tackle, and didn't retire for a while after. When he retired it was due to injuries to his left leg, not caused by Keane who hit his right leg.
Patrick Berg is an amazing inclusion because not only was his father Ørjan a Norwegian International, but also his uncle Runar Berg and his grandfather Harald "Dutte" Berg.
Zealand, It would take some work but could you find the best version of the dads in previous football manager / championship manager games and edit them into FM24, then pitch them against there sons across a full league season? Would make for a competitive watch!
So sad that Luka Zahovič, the son of Zlatko Zahovič (the best ever goalscorer for the slovenian national team) isnt on the list :( also zlazko iz loved by both porto and benfica fans having played for both teams
Nepotism Fc? Do you mean Dynamo Kyiv? Kristian Bilovar is the DK centre back who is the son in law of the owner of the club. Viacheslav Surkis is the u-19 goalkeeper who is the nephew of the current owner of the club, and son of the previous owner of the club. Oleksiy Husev is the son of DK legend Oleg Husev, he is currently out on loan playing for UPL side Zoria Luhansk. Roman Salenko the son of Oleg Salenko recently made his debut for Dynamo Kyiv senior side. Oleg Salenko is known for scoring 5 goals at the 1994 world cup vs Cameroon for a country that doesn't deserve the dignity of being named.
Love seeing Daley Blind on your team and had you done this experiment a few years back, he'd be a great player. The fact that he still is one of the best options is increadible... Time for some players to produce new defenders dangit!
Yo, the disrespect towards Paco Gento. "What wikipedia describes as a legendary Real Madrid player." That man is a legend of the sport itself. That man won the UCL - or rather its predecessor format - six times. Till this very summer, when Carvajal, Kroos, Modric and Nacho caught up , he was the only six times European club champion. He won the Spanish league 12 friggin times. Played for the Spanish National Team 43 times. Btw. regading Marcos Llorentes lineage: His grandfather on his mothers side is former Real Madrid Player Ramón Grosso, yet another European chamipn (1966 as Gentos teammate) and seven times Spanish champion. Also, regarding Marcos Alonso, his grandfather - also names Marcos Alons although known as Marquitos - also won the European cup and the Spanish league five times each, as Gentos teammate.
Fun fact about Icelandic naming: former Reggina, Verona and Udinese player Emil Halfredsson has been called Emil because it was the name of his grandfather. Which means that his father's name is...Halfred Emilsson. Other favt about Icelandic naming: "But..if Icelandinc names work that way, why former Chelsea and Barça player Eidur Gudjohnsen is called that why even if he's the son of Arnor Gudjohnsen (former Anderlecht player :nepotism: )? Shouldn' he be called Eidur Arnorson?" Well, because "Gudjohsen" is a Swedish/Danish surname, and Icelandic people with a foreign surname can keep it, without following the patronymic rule.
I loved using the ZIDANE brothers in my Maidstone save - fringe worthy players for a top premier league save, but always performed perfectly for me. One of them always scores rockets from way out 🚀 ⚽️
Patronymic surnames or patronyms is the naming convention you are looking for. The opposite would be matronymic or matronym. Alls -son/sson/sen/zon names arose this way, however, outside of Iceland, since stricter tax and government regulations and the requirement of having to identify oneself etc. were introduced in the mid-1800s, many families switched to keeping the same name that was passed down, instead of changing each generation. Simultaneously, the female variant was also faded out. I find it interesting that German surnames such as Mertens were Mertenson originally. This is also the origin of Spanish/Portuguese last names such as Álvarez (son of Alvaro), since Germanic tribes settled Iberia after the fall of the Western Roman Empire.
The Andy Gray you put up a photo of (looking very 80s!) got 20 caps for Scotland from 1975 to 1985. He was most definitely a commentator in 2003. The father of Archie is a whole different Andy Gray, this one was born in England but got the 2 caps since his dad was 32 cap Scotland left back Frank Gray
Cesare Maldini was captain of both AC Milan and Italy, making Paolo eligible for this XI. So I’d say it’s a big oversight to forget about the greatest ever defender, especially when the defense of this team is kinda shit
@@mzmvag he just using current active player man. I know Maldini dinasty. I am AC Milan fans of course I know Maldini lineage. But Zealand just using currently active player so, Daniel Maldini the only eligible player in Maldini lineage.
Interesting fact: Lilian Thuram played 142 times for France scoring his only 2 goals in the 1998 WC semi final against debutant Croatia, which France won 2:1
Fun fact: Márton Dárdai has two brothers, Pál and Bence Dárdai. Bence is tought to be the best of the three, already a starter for Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.
Dardai was the coach of Hertha last season. And for some reasons his four sons all played regulary for Hertha when he was coach. Talk about neoptism :D
Even if he is old and WAY past his prime, no Sergio Busquets mention is wild also, as someone pointed out, Mikel Merino not making even the bench is surprising
Martin Ødegaard and Alexander Sørloth could've made this team. Hans Erik Ødegaard had 121 top flight games in Norway (250 professional), while Gøran Sørloth won five league titles with Rosenborg, short spell at B. Mönchengladbach before featuring in the 1994 World Cup among 54 other caps for the national team.
Odegaard is definitely the biggest miss on this team
Maybe Maldini
@@ZealandonYTAnd what about his partner in the midfield, Mikel Merino? Another candidate for the team :)
Was gonna say, pretty crazy to have neither of those mentioned, but Patrick Berg on the bench
@@Derlino1so many norwegians
I'm surprised you didn't add Leroy Sané, his father Souleyman has (Among others) over a hundred appearances for Sc Freiburg and SG Wattenschied in the Bundesliga, as well as 55 caps for Sénégal

Leroy Sané should definitly be in that team. His father has over 170 Bundesliga games(+ 150 2.Bundesliga) and 55 games for Senegal.
And he also was the top scorer of the Austrian Bundesliga!

@@laszloschmel47 I was at a game where all 3 were on the pitch at the same time
timothy weah making the xi but not marcus thuram is a crime
yeah, specially since Thuram can play as LW and Chiesa can play RW
American bias

Had all 3 of them on my Hertha team that dethroned Bayern
lol same
Almost, Bence is the youngest of them and is the one who plays at Wolfsburg:)
I hate them all and I instantly sold them. Because some of these sons were in Hertha just because of the father being coach.
Kvara's father was a footballer, even played for national team of Azerbaijan
11:24 That's a picture of the wrong Andy Grey! 😂 He's also a Scottish international and pundit, so I understand the confusion.

What about Eric Smith? St Paulis best player the last two years. His dad played 10ish seasons for Halmstad in the swedish top flight
Such an educational video. Your humble approach makes it relatable.
Interesting fact:
Lilian Thuram played 142 times for France scoring his only 2 goals in the 1998 WC semi final against debutant Croatia, which France won 2:1
Fun fact: Márton Dárdai has two brothers, Pál and Bence Dárdai. Bence is tought to be the best of the three, already a starter for Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.
I have to mention that Pal Dardai has 3 sons and he let all of them play in the first team of Hertha. Thats Blind level
Should have included all the Dardai siblings as well. Bence Dardai is like my go-to squad player to sign for a lower midtable side.
10:48 The last name is a patronym rather than a surname.
It's called a patronymic naming convention.
Dardai was the coach of Hertha last season. And for some reasons his four sons all played regulary for Hertha when he was coach. Talk about neoptism :D
Would love to see if it was possible to go through retro databases and have a game between team fathers and team sons
khvicha kvaratskhelia is the goat and his dad was a pro
3:21Kevin McAllister
Dardai is amazing in my Ajax squad, he's been the partner of Sutalo for over 6 years now, 4 champions leagues, hato leftback and alistair johnston rb
Can't believe you missed out on Sørloth and to a lesser degree Ødegaard. Sørloth senior was a big Star for the Norway team that qualified for USA 94
You should make a rival team of players with deadbeat dads
Even if he is old and WAY past his prime, no Sergio Busquets mention is wild
also, as someone pointed out, Mikel Merino not making even the bench is surprising
You cant Dance over Kevin McAllister in December without a home alone joke
Let's go, my boy Berg making the cut🤠
Ianis Hagi deserved a spot in the squad
That Keane foul didnt end Alfs career, just another football myth
on that national team note: please try this team at a world cup simulation
