Only British and Irish players in the starting xi on saturday. Jones has said he prefers good old Brit and Irish graft. With most of our overseas players gone or in the bomb squad and no new recruits from overseas his ethnic cleansing is almost complete 😁
On a serious note if he wants to progress as a manager even at champs level he has to reconsider this entrenched view.
Out of interest wonder when the last time no foreign player was in the starting xi

If it's any consolation, Etebo will be back soon.

It is an interesting point though can’t help but think shopping in a reduced pool of championship and lower league players is a disadvantage. Jones played in Spain so thought he wasn’t averse to overseas talent

Afobe was home grown and played for England at youth level as well. It must be a very long time since we played a league game with only players from home nations and RoI?
Looking at Luton squad for last season tells a similar story.

He’s a lower league manager hiring lower league players.
After some of the shit the premier league primadonnas we have had on show I was duped into this new fresh start from Jones
Now I think he’s building a hardworking lower league British side.
He will never make a Premier League manager with us or anyone else. McClean at left back haha it’s laughable

How many of our current "foreign legion" would you actually consider suitable to start - Etebo and N'Diaye apart (both just returning from ACON)?
Wimmer
Bauer
Imbulla
Berahino
Bojan - maybe
Our track record of signing 'exotic' players is hardly a shining example, even Wet Sham fans are now berating Arnie (I'd have him back in a heartbeat if his brother pissed off)
I guess N'Diaye will be off, but Etebo should be a starter soon...anyone else?

No foreigners, no loan signings, sticking to the diamond it doesn’t smack of the work of a visionary

It’s quite ironic really when you remember it’s not that long ago everyone was fancying us becoming some sort of Continental ‘project’ under the guidance of that bloke from Espanyol.
Now we are about as cosmopolitan as Accrington Stanley !

It doesn't matter where they are from. Not one has any character, personality or the ability to trap a ball and look up.

Jones played in Spain so thought he wasn’t averse to overseas talent I've not bought the whole Spain thing. A 'fluent Spanish speaker', I'm not convinced although I bet he can say 'God willing' in Spanish. I just wish God were a bit more willing, he's not been smiling on us since Nath took charge that's for sure. |
