Categorizing football tiers

I won't need to use files or tool calls for this, which is good! I want to be cautious about political content, but since this is about sports forecasting, it should be fine.

I'm thinking about different tiers for football performance. Tier S (2025-2035) includes Japan and South Korea due to their strong youth pipelines and stable leagues. Tier A could involve Saudi Arabia, Iran, Australia, and Qatar. I see Uzbekistan showing promise in Tier B, especially with their youth success.Analyzing Asian football prospects

I'm considering the youth teams of various countries: Iraq recently had strong performances, winning the Gulf Cup, while Jordan reached the AFC Asian Cup final but lost to Qatar. Tajikistan made it to the quarter-finals, and Oman looked solid. I'm noticing Vietnam and Thailand plateauing, while Indonesia is exciting with its naturalized players. India is improving infrastructure but still has limited talent depth. China shows potential if governance changes happen.

I’m determining future strong teams in Asia and forming a watchlist with time horizons.Monitoring Asian football metrics

I'm noting how well Navbahor performed in the ACL 2023-24, and I'm considering Iraqi clubs like Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya and Jordan’s Al-Faisaly, but they might not be essential to mention.

I want to provide key metrics to track, like U17/U20/U23 results, player minutes in top-5 leagues, and registered players per capita. I’ll also include scenario probabilities for team rankings by 2030, focusing on Japan, Korea, and others. It’s essential to clarify that my primary focus is on men's football, capturing a comprehensive view for the next decade.
