I notice not too many responses about the propose deal restricting foreign based players in relation to homegrown players. knowing how this will affect our local hungry players...who need to "rich aready' eat a food too.

RE: Blatter sell out to appease G14
Saw the report, and it's a bad idea. The english & other top leagues will suffer if the best players do not suit up every Saturday, and quality foreign players are excluded due to the passports they hold.

RE: Blatter sell out to appease G14
<DIV>It was only a matter of time. I have no problem with the new changes they want to implement re farin players. If the NPL had teams that were 90% Trini we would have acted similarly a long time ago. </DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>And the standard won't drop for the league. Liverpool, ManU and others have been fielding decent teams with English players. Only Arsenal, Chelsea and maybe one more might be affected by the new rules. What would have happen is the playing field would level out and the league could get more exciting. The all-farin teams and the great football they have been playing would hardly be missed.</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>And remember, only these English teams field so many farin players. The rest of Europe still has many nationals on their teams, even big spenders like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern.</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Good move, FIFA and FIFPro!</DIV>

I don't thinkthere are enough quality English players to go around. The top teams will continue to attract the cream of the crop.Winning means you're willing to go longer, work harder, and give more than anyone else - Vince LombardiComment

<DIV>Then they will just have to improve. What might happen is the other clubs could take on more fariners, so instead of Chelsea having 15 players with farin passports, and Wigan only have one, say, Wigan will move up to 5 while Chelsea reduces their numbers.</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Hortikal, did you not see this coming? It couldn't last. Only two or three clubs in England practices it anyway, so why do we see a big problem throughout Europe? Maybe some French clubs could be guilty of same, but I don't think they would need to make the huge adjustments that Chelsea or Arsenal will have to.</DIV>
