Another thing to note - if the pound continues to drop in value then players from the continent will cost a lot more.
That would be a good thing though in my view, as it means we'd be likely to see more quality over quantity to be blended with the best of what this country has to offer.Comment

Great point mate far to many journey men coming from abroad because they are the ready made article , stunting the progress of young home produced playersAnother thing to note - if the pound continues to drop in value then players from the continent will cost a lot more.

Done norths mate.
To be honest I really can't see Brexit affecting the game as we know it in any way whatsoever.
If the worst thing is the bosman rule gets scrapped I'd be happy with that , moody old rule that anyway.Comment

Think if anything it will reduce the lower standard foreigner from coming over. Will have to be an established international quality.
Imagine it wont have much of an effect on prem football, but could well effect championship football. Could well stop the likes of Polter Cherry etc.Comment

In the prem you wouldn't see Kante, Payet, etc. you won't get any more bargains from across the border and english players will rise in price because demand is higher (even more than now)Think if anything it will reduce the lower standard foreigner from coming over.

The argument that less foreigners would improve the England team seems utter horseshit to me, the top 15 players in the country will always be playing in the top division. If they are training everyday with the likes of Suarez and Bergkamp they are going to improve rather than training with Carlton Palmer and Geoff Thomas.Comment

I think your right clubs from the championship down will have to work harder at scouring the lower leagues like we have been forced to do .
###'s plan will be proved the right whether by accident or designComment

I disagree. Your Suarez and Bergkamp examples STILL take up squad places, regardless of their positive influence. If it means British clubs are forced to search out talent within our own leagues and do more to improve grass roots football then that has to benefit both our clubs and national team. The England team were also more successful under Ramsey, Robson and Venables when foreign players weren't as widespread in our leagues as they are today, which kind of proves the point.The argument that less foreigners would improve the England team seems utter horseshit to me, the top 15 players in the country will always be playing in the top division.

Stanley has it spot on mate and you might be too young to remember when we had more english players to choose from.The argument that less foreigners would improve the England team seems utter horseshit to me, the top 15 players in the country will always be playing in the top division.

Of course the standard of the premier league will drop but we are talking about the England team. I think a limit is certainly the way forward.
When you get games with chelsea and aresnal fielding far too many foreigners, how can that have a good input into our national team?
England is less important than the premier league because money has taken over the game, and most fans over 30 can see that!I played sunday league football today.
Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!Comment
