The answer is no, there is no direction correlation between a successful soccer player in a certain position and their birth month... There are some months that stand out year over year but then you compare them to the GOATs and in most cases GOATs behave as outliers. It was a fun aspect to research though. There are many more scenarios to dig through - venue altitude (https://api.zafronix.com/wc-explorer/stadiums/), player age groups (https://api.zafronix.com/wc-explorer/players/)... data is there... I'm curious to see if there is a scenario that is currently not covered that would be fun to add to enhance the dataset further.
