This has certainly been reflected in their playing personnel and supporters down the years.Davs 19 said:

To be fair, if they didn't play them in London they'd nearly always be at the swamp...London will do for now I think.
Anyway, people crying that we don't have any English players need a reality check. Yes, in an ideal world, we'd have several English players in our team. But English players right now are not as good as those from other nations. And there's a reason we have few English players but are one of the best teams in the world.
Also, what's so special about being English and playing for an English team? I'd much rather win the English title with a team consisting of players like Kompany, Zabaleta and Silva (you know, decent, humble men) than the likes of Rooney, Ashley Cole and John Terry - players with either questionable morals or motivated only by their next pay-day, and often a combination of the two. Not to mention the few English players who would arguably improve our squad (Terry, Rooney, Gerrard) are the players who fall into that category while the ones who do seem decent people tend to be the lesser able ones, with the exception of a select few such as Lampard and our very own Joe Hart & James Milner & Joleon Lescott.

Not 1 little bit. I'd rather we have Spanish, German or Argentinians they're better players. Our owners want us to best the best football team in the world and not a cat in hells chance we'll ever be the best if we fill it with average English players.
