Unless and until there is a SENSIBLE method of limiting the number of foreign players in (at least), the PL AND the Championship, replicated in all FIFA affiliated leagues, we will never have a first class England team (or from any of the other home nations). If home-grown players can't get into the 1st teams of those club's, on a regular and consistent basis, they will never develop as competitive players on the world stage.

It will never happen of course, the money machine won't allow it.

Once you open up a Gateway it will never be closed. There is no honor playing for a club as all players are Mercenaries going for the highest dollar and couldn't care less about winning or playing for the honor.
I started this when I first joined the forum and was laughed at, by most of the ones that don't post anymore. English clubs where you struggle to pick an English born player.
