Yes and Ireland is still part of the British isles, last time I looked at a map it wasn't detached, it's just not part of the UK. If Scotland ever gets independence it will still be British geographically. Anyway, Onana was born in Senegal and looks a very good player to me.

Thanks for posting this. Interesting analysis.Good read
Amadou Onana: Lille’s Belgian Midfield Dynamo - Breaking The Lines
When asked to imagine the perfect midfielder, who do you see? Is it someone packed with flair and agility, capable of breaking the lines with intricate moves? Maybe they are the archetypal destroyer, intercepting passes and corralling loose balls as though their life depends on it? Perhaps you...

Coleman is neither British or even a member of the UK. He is Irish ....not hard to understand
Ireland is geographically part of the British isles, just like Jamaica is part of the Carribbean isles, very easy to understand.
True but the main point is Coleman is Irish not British......simple really
Ireland is still part of the British Isles in the same way the rest of Europe is part of the British Isles..... which is not at all.
In Ireland, the term "British Isles" is controversial,[8][17] and there are objections to its usage.[18] The Government of Ireland does not officially recognise the term,[19] and its embassy in London discourages its use.[20] Britain and Ireland is used as an alternative description,[18][21][22] and Atlantic Archipelago has also seen limited use in academia.[23][24][25][26]
I think the sticking point is whether you consider British to be a synonym of a person being born of the ‘U.K.’ or ‘British Isles’
I know Ireland is classed as British Isles but unlike a Jamaican being called carribbean and rightly so you cannot call an Irishman British. Northern Irish ,Yes.
I've never disputed Coleman being Irish by nationality, I see myself as being English but born in the British isles. I also class myself as being European as I am classed as being from Europe. That's geography wise which was always my point. Onana was born in Senegal Africa and is now a Belgian citizen to get back on topic.
There is a difference calling it great Britain and the British isles. One exists politically and the geographical.
