Re: The England footy thread (aka Maclarens muppet show!)
Most clubs to try to keep a good english base to the team but it is becoming increasingly difficult for young players to break through. A lot of teams have decent academy's but unless they're exceptional (such are the stakes in footy) they're often loaned out to lower clubs or disappear into obscurity.
I believe some of the oversea's players have brought a lot of quality to the English game but as long as clubs have to pay over the odds for a half decent english player then I can understand managers looking over the waters.
But it's not good for the future of the national team, I agree.
