@Matty I don't get you, I think I've made my thoughts perfectly clear
How good were England back in the days when the top-flight had mostly English players? How many trophies did they win, or come close to winning? Do you honestly believe that what we saw last night ( a compelete inability to pass the ball into attacking areas rather than hoofing it up to Crouch for one) can be blamed on foreigners? How do you respond to my argument about the attitudes of English players? And How can you justify around 10mil pounds for Ashley Yong vs 2.5 mil for Robin Van Persie?
I'm not anti-English, I supported them during the World Cup in 98 and the Euros in 2000, and found my support waning during the Beckham-Sven era which is when I felt the Goldenballs celebrity lifestyle started spreading. Stop blaming it all on foreigners, English players either aren't good enough, or are undone by their attitudes, or have a hyper-inflated sense of self-importance (in most cases it's all of the above).
There's lots more, I can't be bothered to go through it all, have a read of this if you want
