[wembley94]

During last nights Man City game.Martin Tyler said only ? foreign players played.out of 22 teams

[ClaretAndJew]

13

[dsr]

Give us a clue. Was it more or less than the current number?

[Bordeauxclaret]

I’m going to guess 6

[Funkydrummer]

Does "foreign" need defining ?

[FactualFrank]

3

[Barry_Chuckle]

12

[Dark Cloud]

Probably 1 (Klinsman!)

[wembley94]

funkydrummer...non UK passport holders

[edison]

About 20. Most were likely from Ireland

[Goobs]

32?

[ClaretTony]

It was 13 but don’t think they included any Irish players

[edison]

Ireland is literally a foreign country. No reason not to include Irish players.

[jdrobbo]

It’s thirteen and not too difficult a list to memorise.... four keepers making up nearly a third of it....

Segers
Schmeichel
Stejskal
Forrest
Cantona
Kanchelskis
Halle
Nilsson
Jensen
Vonk
Limpar
Rosenthal


The last one was a midfielder from Poland at Everton, who began with a W but I can’t recall his name.

[edison]

Warzycha - former Columbus Crew manager

[edison]

The answer is not 13 no matter what anyone says

[jdrobbo]

Now now Lloyd, calm down

[jdrobbo]

Warzycha - former Columbus Crew manager

He’s the one!

[wembley94]

13 not the answer Martin Tyler said last night

[jdrobbo]

I think Martin might be wrong.

[expoultryboy]

No Grobbelaar ?

[jdrobbo]

James played in goal for Liverpool’s first game. Sherringham pinged one in his top left corner.

[edison]

Now now Lloyd, calm down

LOL

[wembley94]
