Qatar national passport --------- means they are Qataris.

Now if you want to argue between original Qataris and duplicate Qataris - then that's a different topic.

Like it or not -you gottah accept the fact that they are now Qataris. If they hold Qatari passports, they are Qataris. I understand they were naturalized is extremely unfair and they were being exploited for their talent is a different story. Qatar however has the right to grant citizenship to those whom they please although I'm sure not everyone agrees about the process. I know you can be born and live in Qatar and still not become Qatari. But hey whatever floats their boat; They're country, they're choice.
Sad but unfair.

I'm sure they're already looking into it. Surely it's only a matter of time until we see a Quintana XI.

In Australia its often used as a term of endearment. Its also used as a term of derision, but if you know Australian English then you can easily know it was used as a term of endearment in the original post.

They are, but it is often the case that teams seem to handle one group of talented players better than another. We seem to struggle against Iraq, but haven't done so against Qatar so far.

On a somewhat tangential note but still very related.
Emerson is reportedly trying to play for Urawa Reds again. I doubt they will take him on. However, JLeague will have a new rule next year that allows a 4th foreign player on each team -- with the requirement of this 4th player being from AFC. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I wonder if JLeague teams will start sniffing around, or if they'd rather keep out of it entirely.
