Was that the only thing you picked up on? You Canadians need to develop a sense of humour.

 

Look back at that map.

76% of the starting XIs that played on the first weekend of the first Premier League season in 1992 were English, only 37% were English on the first weekend of this season

 

Only 10% (23 players) of the starting XIs in 1992 were from outside the UK, this season that number had increased to 56% (123)

 

Non-English players have scored 69% of Premier League goals so far this season - they have even scored two of the three own goals

 

Of the 118 goals scored so far, only nine have been scored by seven English strikers

 

According to the latest Deloitte figures for disclosed transfer fees, spending by Premier League clubs rose from £333m in 2006 to £531m in 2007

Half of that went to non-English clubs

^^It has nothing to do with the foreign legion saxib. English just cant play todays highly technical/skillful game. They seem to think they will win just by turning up.

^^We can forget about the World Cup in 2010 aswell

 

England have been drawn against their Euro 2008 nemesis Croatia for the 2010 World Cup South Africa qualifiers.

It gives England a chance to avenge last week's defeat by Croatia which eliminated them from next summer's Euro 2008 finals in Austria and Switzerland.

:confused: I don't see anything else amusing. I find "Split" funny because that's just what Yugoslavia did a decade and a half ago.
