A few Yrs ago FIFA passed around the idea that if u played in a Country u should be able to play for that Country. Never went anywhere, everyone thought it a silly idea.....................but just for arguements sake. If it had got approved, how would we do, and what would be your team/squad?

petrov=the only way i think youve included him is to have a token city player
james=should not be in england team let alone a combined prem side
carragher/scholes/giggs=all retired from international football shouldnt be considered
diarra=not even the best midfielder at pompey,could hack it at chelsea and arsenal

why no nani,ferdinand,terry,cruz,evra,cliche,sagna,adebayor,mascherano,berbatov,tevez,etc etc

because the title of the thread and original post is about players play for the country they ply their trade in, thus beckham becomes eligable for the USA side instead....

I think that says it all about how good our players actually are.

A Premiership elect would win the World Cup/everything surely? Just look how well the English teams are doing in Europe.
