Why isn't this a FIFA rule?

[Adamm]

I have never understood why this isn't a rule.

Each participating association shall have coaching staff from that country.

Why is this the case with players but not coaching staff? Never understood it.

[CHA!NGANG]

Is that actually a new FIFA rule? Or as you asking why it isn't?

[Adamm]

Maybe I should make myself clearer.

[CHA!NGANG]

Ohright lol. Ermm.. No idea really. It should be though.

Adebayor, I think, was saying about why the African countries don't have managers from their own country. I can't remember his reasons though. I think it's better for teams when they do have managers from their country though.

I believe Algeria is the only African country in the world cup with a coach from their own nation.

[alexxxxx]

because the competition is about the players not the coaches.

[Adamm]

because the competition is about the players not the coaches.

you're kidding, right?

[alexxxxx]

you're kidding, right?

nope. not at all.

[Adamm]

nope. not at all.

So why do teams have managers? Managers that get the sack if the team aren't playing well? The team don't get sacked.

Basic fundamentals of football here.
