You know why we don't have many English players?

Cause they aren't good enough for us.

Man Utd might have loads of English players in Jones, Smalling, Cleverley, Young, Zaha and Welbeck... but that's why they finished 7th whilst we were champions.

There's only a handful of English players that would make our squad, let alone starting eleven.

And four of these were bought, and not cheap either.

Right now, their strongest team is:

--------------------De Gea---------------
-----------Jones--Carrick--Evans-----
Valencia---------------------------Shaw
-------------Herrera--Fletcher--------
---------------------Mata-----------------
----------van Persie--Rooney--------

Is that strong enough to make top four? Not for me.

The front 3 lacks pace, the centre backs aren't good enough, their centre midfield depth is appauling and they won't be used to this new formation (one that no big team has been successful with in the Premiership).

Why their fans think they're contenders for the league I really have no idea.

Because they're basically an offshoot of the moonies

Four? 5 out of those 6 were bought.

No idea why they boast about the number of English players they have. Only 2 are home grown and if they played for anyone else its argued they wouldn't even be in the England squad. The rest have cost huge money so there is nothing clever or proud to be had from the fact. I would rather have our team with fewer English players in and win titles than finish 7th but boast they have all English players without mentioning the fact they paid well over the odds for most.

Not sure if this will work but made me laugh. I'm sure most will have seen it.

Had me in stitches. Wasn't sure how to post as a YouTube screen so just posted the link. Maybe someone a bit more techy than me could do as definitely worth a watch....

Because they have just trounced Real and Liverpool and we were damn lucky we didn't meet them ;-)
