Team of many nations

[frank black]

Have we ever had a team representing so many nations before?

England, USA, Senegal, France, Scotland, Ireland, Switzerland, Ghana, Spain, Columbia, Holland and Denmark.

Not sure if I've missed any. We are the UN of the Premier league.

Watford might have something to say about that - 22 different nationalities in their first team squad, and eleven different in their starting eleven against Everton at the weekend.

As for others - Benin and Czech Republic. Plus Bulgaria and St Lucia if you want to count Tonev and Donacien.

Of course Toronto, can't believe I missed that one as I had to have a quick look on tinterweb to locate Benin when he signed.

Grealish could be Irish or English!

WING Gyan Ghana

I don't think we'd match the crazy wages that he's getting in China.

Weren't we the last Premier League side to field an entirely English XI ?

Where did I get that from? I've edited it now. I was trying so hard not to put "Ghana" after "Gana" I fucked the name of the player up that actually does come from there.

[Salsa Party Animal]

and we still can pick English XI

Bunn,
Richards, Baker, Kinsella, Richardson
Sinclair, Westwood, Cole, Grealish
Agbonlahor, Robinson.

I think so. The 4-1 home defeat to Coventry back in '99?

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

UKIP are furious.

[ADVILLAFAN]

The African Cup of Nations will be more exciting to watch, we should have a few people playing in it.

[Duncan Shaw]

That's why there's an EDL march in the city on Saturday!

H&V set the days training program at Bodymoor Heath... 'England vs the Rest of the World'

better than running around a few cones I suppose!
