I agree.  We should sack some perfectly good premiership footballers and replace them with some asian players who may but probably aren't good enough.  If they were good enough, do you not think that with the extent of football's scouting networks these days, they would have been picked up already?

Edit: Still, at least it would prove we're not racists, right?

No but they have better names. Natipong Stritong-in > Stevie Gerrard.

DV is this true?

I believe so.

Only players currently playing in the Premiership. For example Andriy Vorinin is still a Liverpool player but on loan in Germany, he is not included in the list hence no Ukraine.
