Don't care at all for two reasons; firstly, England does not produce enough top quality players through youth academies to supply the demand in the Premier League and that has nothing to do with us as we have one of the better academies; secondly, because demand is high and supply is low every young English prospect is overvalued and then City get anally raped by the 'English tax' as well as the 'City tax'.
I can't see it happening anyway but it wouldn't bother me even slightly. From Bert Trautmann to Asa Hartford to Shaun Goater, they've all worn the shirt as proudly as any Manc-born blue.

No,it will give the media and Talkshite something else to be pissed off with too which can only be a good thing.
If you ever happen to e-mail that joke of a radio station try and mention that you don't care if we ever produce a home grown player(even if you don't mean it)again,it usually gets a bite and tends to piss them off royally,play the fuckers at their own game

On balance I'd prefer us to have some rather than none, but that's just a gut instinct and quality is what really counts in the end.
I find it funny they dont have to be English, good old european restriction of trade laws
