some of our players are not suited to England and some are. We have different types of players with different qualities and characteristics. So cease with the stereotyping of the socawarriors. Brazil has players everywhere...Ronaldinho has thrived in Spain but one can argue that players like Gilberto Silva were made for the premiership. Dunga thrived in Germany but fopped for Fiorentina.

As for England not being great for technically gifted players..Thierry Henry was looking like falling off until he went Arsenal. Yorke's game changed in England, but he did develop into a much better all round player and one of the deadliest strikers in all of Europe. Cantona and Rooney @ manU, Robben @ Chelsea, Okocha @ Bolton...there are tonnes of technically gifted players who have thrived and been glorified in England. It is just a case of different strokes for different folks. I am a La Liga man, but I recognize the the EPL has its merits and is a great league for many players...from all over the world
