Asylumseeker I said already that I knew that in my first post check the asterisks and the bottom of my post. Maybe I didn't explain it in a way that did show that I knew.
If this is better: Thierry Henry was born in the Metropolis, ''The Mainland'',..... Paris.
LOL @ BM
I think Marcos Senna is good call also Asylumseeker with Emmanuel Olisadebe, Tigana etc. Alot of players who mentioned have made a good contribution.
Thanks for all the replies to the thread.
The mention of Ray Houghton made me think of Aiden McGeady (No way this guy has made the same
contribution as RH lol) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSS61Deu8t8
Paul McGrath was born in Ealing, London and grew up in Dublin I forget.
Do not be so quick to believe that. There is mystery surrounding the birthplace of Henry and this has been so for many years. Henry has been said to be born in Guadeloupe, Haiti, and France. Similarly Kareem Abdul Jabaar wasn't born in the US but you will find oodles of sources saying he was. Unless you see de man bithpaper doh puh yuh head on no block.
There is no Mystery. He has always said, in the flesh, he was born in Paris
Even before the CL Final 2006 on Sky Sports they showed 10 minute interviews showing with both him and Ronaldinho showing where they was born, grew up etc.
and he said it is great that he is playing in the City of his Birth, even though he feels like a 'Londoner' now,
especially as he won the WC with France in the same stadium and his grandmother was there to see it among other things.
