Looking at the top 50 rated countries in the world I was wondering how many have supplied players to us: 1 Germany Huth (RIP), Jörg Sobiech 2 Belgium Vandeurzen, Hoefkens 3 Argentina No 4 Colombia No 5 Brazil No 6 Netherlands Hoekstra, Ursam 7 Portugal Jose Andrade 8 Uruguay Arismendi 9 France Nzonzi 10 Spain Bojan, Muni 11 Switzerland No 12 Romania No 13 Italy No? 14 Costa Rica No 15 England ! 16 Czech Updated: Patrik Berger, Martin Kolar 17 Slovakia No 18 Croatia No 19 Chile No 20 Austria Arnie 21 Algeria No 22 Wales Danny Collins, Judder, Robbie James 23 Mexico No 24 Ivory Coast No 25 Greece No 26 Russia No 27 USA Cameron, Edu, Shea 28 Scotland Adam, Maguire 29 Tunisia No 29 Denmark Sorenson 31 Ecuador No 32 Bosnia Bego 32 Poland No 34 Ghana No 35 Ukraine Konoplyanka! 36 Senegal Diouf 37 Iceland Bjarni, Toddy, et al 38 Cape Verde Islands No! 39 Sweden Mikel Hansen 40 Israel No 41 Iran No 42 Hungary No 43 Nigeria Odemwingie, Moses 44 Northern Ireland Sammy McIlroy 45 Guinea Updated: Sam Bangoura 45 Serbia No 47 Congo Updated: Gabriel Zakuani 48 Slovenia No 49 Cameroon Updated: Vincent Pericard 50 Equatorial Gunea No I haven't tried to list all the players from each country - more that we have had a player from a country play for us. Very little in the way of South Americans so far - but the biggest gap is probably Italy? Oh, and the Cape Verde Islands

It's a pity South Africa aren't on there or else I would have had chance to name check Des Backos again.
I believe Jose Andrade was a Cape Verde national. Or Ze Angola or whatever.
A pity Carlos Babington wasn't our Argentinean.

It's a cathartic process for me. <winky>

From Jose Andrade's wiki:-
