Title: Villa International Players
Post by: Dave Clark Five on August 25, 2013, 02:06:29 PM
I notice that the boards, showing which Villa players have played for their country, are now on display in the Lions Club. Worth a look at if you haven't seen them before.

No, not even close. Sixth in fact.  ASTON VILLA top the list with 64 players, followed by Tottenham on 59, Everton and Arsenal on 57, Liverpool 56, Man Utd 54.

Those stats are out of date. Villa had provided 71 England internationals as of Nov 15th 2011 but I can't find anything more up to date than that.

72 if you include Scott Carson, who played for England while on loan to us from Liverpool. Can't think of any who've debuted since 2011 although wouldn't be amazed if Lowton and maybe Delph get a chance at some point.

I've been saying for a while Fabulous Fabian should be in the England squad. Maybe Gabby too but not convinced he cares about international football.

I don't want our players anywhere near the International side.
