The English team is made up of 100% EPL players how much more can that be representative of the EPL

Germany’s top division is currently made up of 60 per cent German players. In Spain, the figure is 59 per cent. This year the Premier League is 35 per cent English, but that number has been significantly skewed by the arrival of Burnley and their mainly English squad. Should Watford, and their horde of foreign imports, replace them next season that number will likely be closer to 31 per cent.http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/foreign-players-in-the-premier-league-what-impact-will-the-fas-work-permit-changes-have-on-the-game-10129153.html

[s]Its like saying a Full blooded Ibadan boy father mother uncle aunty all from Ibadan is not representative of Ibadan

But another boy thats Half Ibadan half Owerri is the true representation of Ibadan[/s]

Dadehmola:
How can it be the representation of the EPL when the number of English players in the league isnt even upto 50%?
Tosh!!

The players you listed aren't the best in the EPL as you claimed earlier - that's the crux of the matter!



You coulda had a point if the aforementioned players played any part in yesterday's embarassment...

I'd rather you stick to the issue at hand bros...



Man utd - 3 representatives (Smalling, Washed up Rooney & 18 year old Rashford)

Chelsea - 1 representative (Garri Cahill)

Arsenal - 1 representative (Wheelchair who hasn't been a regular for his club in the last 18months thereabout)

Why should fans of the listed clubs be arsed about the performance of a team filled with players at the level of the ones stated above?



The focus should be on quality, not quantity bros...

For the umpeeth time, majority of the Brits in the NT aren't the best legs in the EPL - they don't even come close!



Irrelevant to the discourse...

At the end of the tourney, a TOTT would be made available by UEFA - we would analyse the players that make the team & the real ballers would be known.

This rooney no get shame sha! See him still raking that he won't retire?




What is the point of hanging on? At man united his pathetic-ness has sent him to midfield! In the 3 lions the same thing! And all the while he has been ineffective, wasteful and average! Abeg just retire from the national team and see if you can have 1 last go at being a STRIKER that you are @ club level!

raumdeuter:


Most of those Germans play in the Bundesliga and most of the English players play in the EPL

If that doesnt show you that EPL is garbage on the level of Swedish, Czech and Danish league I wonder what would

raumdeuter:

Garbage!!

Kane Alli Rose Vardy made PFA team of the year thats 4 out of 11 starters for England. Thats 36% of the EPL best 11. Yet trying to tell us its not representative

raumdeuter:

Which kain senseless yarn be this? A team 100% EPL just crashed out to Iceland you are now saying lets wait for TOTT? Were these players going there to win the trophy or make team of the Tournament?

You speaketh bereft of common sense & deductive reasoning!!

If there are 31% English players in the EPL & only 22 players are chosen from that percentage to make a NT, how on earth can that the quality of those players satisfactorily assess the strength of the league?

Egbon Dayo, You are becoming very foolish nowadays






If there are many EPL players left in the tourney that could star & dominate, logic dictates that you shut your fùcking mouth till the end of the competition & do a proper analysis at that time!

raumdeuter:


Its the long tradition of failure that makes this occur. Most La Liga fans support the SPanish team, Same with Serie A fans and Bundesliga fans even chic2pimp whose AC Milan isnt relevant currently supports Italy

Its only EPL fans would be saying I support Cahill till May ending but I hope he fails in the summer during NT competition

Ludacris would read this and ask "How low can you go"

You have a team of 100% EPL players crash out to Iceland a country less than Festac in population you are now clinging to Belgium?

EPL dominated English team 100% cannot beat Iceland? and this is the rubbish you came to spew

Tell me in your lifetime when a team dominated by EPL players have won any major trophy

Blame Tottenham - The choker team!

The same skysports HQ that favoured some of these players criticised here, so I don't think it is biased.

Was Ali there when they played qualifiers? Ali had two bad games against Russia and Wales, in my opinion. Yesterday, he was not really there either.

The England front was a shadow if itself when compared to qualifiers. No activities, no pace, no mature movement and quality final balls. England were trying to be technical but that is not their game, and Ali and Kane were too young to enforce that. May be in two years, they could dominate. If anyone saw all the games since world cup till now, it will be obvious Rooney still has sense than these guys, except he had lost pace.

Previously, they had Miller, Sterling, Townsend, Walcott, Chamberlain, Welbeck who could play with pace and power (lol), unfortunately, they were not selected/available to play the kind of football they were used to.

We could see the impact of Rashford and Vardy. That is England's game.

A40:

Belgium and France. When all else fails Germany is next. I am not even saying it is not allowed.

My own question is why is no one willing to support the purest representatives of their league.

If Germany lost to Iceland I would log off Nairaland for one month. Only a shameless fellow would come to Bayern thread and shout Burndisleaguedown when we all know the league that should be burnt down

Thats how they turn logic on its head its like me bragging Ibadan people are the smartest and I cant show a full blooded Ibadan people thats smart

I am now showing you people that are Ibadan mixed with other towns as evidence of Ibadan smartness

English National team is 100% EPL they cant defend that but they want us to look at Belgium thats not 100%. Where we have Witsel, Naingollan Mertens, Carrasco, Vermalaen

If Italy wins they would say its not because of the Serie A players but because of Graziano Pelle

^^ If I would check the current holder of the world cup I see it filled with Bundesliga players,

Almost EVery single time the Germans with their Bundesliga core go further in competition that the useless players from the EPL

On this same page someone posted winning stats of Germany filled with Bunndesliga in knockouts now take that and compare it to England filled with EPL

SIRcumalot:

this isn't so hard,
the English football team isn't a true representation of the English league.
I believe na say sailorxy point be that.

GBR1:

He cannot understand that obviously. How can the a league of a country (England) with the highest percentage of foreign players be a representation of the national team?

I have been ignoring and would ignore his posts dissing the English national team (because i never rated them) but now he's taking it too far involving the English league too and it won't take long before i start replying those posts and it won't end well for him.
