EPL: Arsene Fights for our rights!

Alslam alikum ...

Hmm ... till when will we be judged by our passports??? why not by capabilities and effort ... why the limitation??? although I'm a Manchester United fan, but i wont be blindly following what Sir Alex Ferguson says ... He wants some "home-grown" players!!! .. i mean what the heck??? ,... for the first time i will have to agree with Arsene Wenger, although he has his own deceiving comments, but this time he said the truth ... he doesn't "grade" players according to their passports... its based on what they do on the pitch ... im sure all fans will love to see a "good game" .. not a country-based game which focuses on some "home-grown" players ... and if that "home-grown" is capable, he will be on the team ... if he's not, he shouldn't be on the team ... why are they trying to kill the EPL with such statements??? we as world-viewers like the EPL as it is ... any change will change the viewers ... i don't mind watching "British" players ... but the condition is simple .. if they know how to play , let them play ... if they are too busy with "Beer", too slow, cant handle a ball and don't like to be criticized, let them be and they aren't gonna play ... so salute to Arsene for knowing the meaning of a globalized world , guess the "British" are still unaware that Europe is the European Union now (EURO), and there is no difference between these countries ... but unfortunately ... they haven't learnt from what racism did to some other football leagues ... football is a game that teaches us how to think much more openly ... when it comes to club-level, so lets keep the spirit high .. and stop treating all of the other-world as "Foreigners" just because they don't carry a passport that you carry ... "Globalization" for God's sake ... Wayne Rooney is good because he is good, not because he is British or whatever ... and i bet if he wasn't good, sir Alex will not put him in that position, we all remember how beckham left, wasn't he "Home-grown"??? doesn't he deserves a better treatment as an excellent "home-grown"?? ... the beauty of the EPL is in its cultural mixture ... if england wants to build a team then it should tell its younger players how to play the game and how to respect others as well ... stop drinking and focus on football...

This is true.. The EPL's attractiveness to international viewers is largely attibuted to the style of play, competitiveness and international flavor of the league. Much of the style comes from the presence of foreign players from Africa, Asia and beyond. Not to mention that managers themselves do not necessarily have to home-grown, eh? Like Benitez, the best manager in the EPL currently, hehehe
