I think that the European media just like to point it out as a way of saying that the player is a product of their system, yes he's playing for T&T but he's from England or something to that effect. Look at Germany, Kevin Kuranyi, Brazil, Miroslav Klose and Lucas Podolksi, Polish, Gerald Asamoah, Ghana and at one point Lincoln from Brazil was being approached. Don't even talk about Holland and Portugal are always littered with Brazilians and players from former colonies, Belgium too.
