Kid Dynamite 5941 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Whether you have 3 spaniards or 9 frenchmen, cliques happen at football clubs. Last season showed that if you get the team playing well the rest of the stuff tends to take care of itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 French footballing `experts' must be worried in case we sign a decent frenchman or two which will mean they will have to travel up here for interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken 119 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Better a French clique than an English one. Have a look at the state of the squad without the French influence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 We've played teams with Sammy Ameobi, Shane Ferguson, Paul Dummett, Adam Campbell, James Tavernier and Nile Ranger in this season. All young British players so any complaints about us signing players from a abroad should consider this. As for Cliques, I don't see it as a massive problem. There's already been a clique of Ba, Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Maveaux, Obertan and Abeid and it's never looked like causing a problem. What could be more of a problem is the rules about home grown players. Will we end up having enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13883 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Is it really a clique if the majority are French? The problem is the English clique, Steven Taylor stealing all the toblerones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4231 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 U21 players dont need to be registered to play sammy, ferguson, taylor all count and the first 2 there can be registered to bump the numbers. basically we can have our first 11 and 7 subs and then register 7 youth team players if we wanted to get the numbers right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 Have the PFA complained yet about our french players taking the places of british players.What they need to realise is that for every french player coming here,there is a place in french football for a british player.

Dr Gloom 19844 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I'm not sure I give a shit about having English players in the team. They're mostly rubbish plus for every good one you can get about 4 frenchies. No brainer from a business point of view. And having all the frenchies is helping us attract more. Hopefully they're up for the cold weather and the relegation fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
