70% of the premier is now foreign players. Is google right? It’s just all our possible incoming signings are from abroad. Why are our youngsters no goos anymore?

50 million people in England. 500 million people in Europe. 7 billion people in the world (at least 2 billion in countries where football is practiced professionally). Do the math. If you want the best league that means getting the best players, you have to accept that only a low proportion will be English

To get back on subject Mattteo is correct but also I think (just my opinion) parents don't let their kids out to play at such a young age anymore in the UK (because they've swallowed the s**ty British press version of life (ie paedos on every corner). I was out (when I grew up in Norwood) at least until dark playing football, riding my bike as early as ten, maybe younger, I have a sneaking suspicion that doesn't happen any more (I would be chuffed if any parents in here could prove me wrong). Grrrr he's left out the U, end of civilization as we know it. What about the S?
