Of course Arsene Wenger and Rafa Benitez are opposed, but the Premier Leagues decision to force teams to have at least 8 homegrown players out of their 25 total has been agreed upon.
This will benefit teams like West Ham, for instance, who have a solid youth academy and a tradition of fielding many English or Welsh players.
This will be a problem for teams like Arsenal and Liverpool, as well as others. It is often difficult to pinpoint even ONE English player with some of these teams.
I'm not opposed to foreign players in the least. But I think it would be great for teams to look for talent a little closer to home. Perhaps the secret to a World Cup winning English side is the development of young, domestic players.
