Not at all, why would any sane manager pick 11 english over paid, big headed kj's with over inflated ego's.  england have a dreadful team spirit, unlike the Scots for example.  And your argument fails as soon as start to pick the team, best keeper in Britain - Craig Gordon, who last time I checked isn't english.

I've seen Craig Gordon many times and the odd great save aside, is vastly overrated - just like every keeper in the UK!!! He has a shoddy defence in front of him I grant you.

I think we get the message though - the Scots are on the up - England are overpaid egomaniacs - like we didn't know

Anywho, it'll be a Scotsman who'll probably lead these gang of renegades in 2012.... If he's in then I blame Scotland if this farce is approved

I can't see Fergie doing it.

Gordon for Scotland > Gordon for Sunderland.

And anyone would struggle keeping goal for the Mackems.

Hence why i said 85% and not 100%.

So if there were 2 non english players selected your theory is shot out the water.  A "British" side containing Gordon, Hutton and Bale, in a couple of years wouldn't be too unexpected (talking general terms not for the Olympics).

I'd be happy with that. Don't forget a squad is made up of more than 11 players though Jan.

[janaage]

Fair point Jay, but your original post stated any "team"...... not squad.  Can we call it a day on this one now?

I'm bored - I also don't want Team GB F.C. to happen. But here's my Great Britain squad if it was this year and everyone was fit.
