The very simple answer as to why Wenger doesn’t buy English players
October 17, 2007 6:03 pm Arsenal News, InternationalThey aren’t very good.
Their European Championship qualifying group really isn’t very hard. Croatia are average, Russia are fairly poor, and no-one else deserves a mention.
Yet after tonight’s defeat in Russia, England will fail to qualify if the Russians beat Israel and Andorra in their final two matches.
The performance was poor, and uninventive. If England were to play in the Premiership, they would be mid table at best.
I’d take foreign talents for our club any day of the week.
