Big kerfuffle on the radio about why there arent any british players lol but im not surprised, currently they are rubbish, overpaid, underworked, lazy gits who are more worried about which page 3 girl they can bed.

Only player i might put among there is probably (i hate to say it) cashley cole.

Very true probably the only player that walked away from that shambles of a world cup with integrity lol.

And to even give him that label is saying something about British players!!!

On there day some of our players are fantastic, but for me there is no one that would get close to world player of the year ahead of any of the people suggested!

However the people in UEFA hate the fact that the premier league is still the most watched league in the world and makes more money than li liga, serie a, bundas league all put together... so anything to take the shine from us lol.
