June 4, 200619 yr I would have though Barcelona would have had the most interational players at the Wordl Cup but it seems that isn't the case as that title is shared between Chelsea and Arsenal.
June 4, 200619 yr Author Who are they? And who are the Blackburn ones someone please? :) Wigan - Chimbonda (France), Skoko (Australia) Blackburn - Neill & Emerton (both Australia)
June 4, 200619 yr I'm surprised at Newcastle and how they've only got two players going, with one of those being Owen and I don't know who the other one is...
June 4, 200619 yr Wigan - Chimbonda (France), Skoko (Australia) Blackburn - Neill & Emerton (both Australia) Oh yeah how could I forget the Blackburn Aussies! I'll be wanting Croatia and Australia to get through the group stages then! :cheer: Unlikely that Australia will but one can hope! ^_^
June 4, 200619 yr Extremely. Boumsong AND Chimbonda in their squad. Chimbonda ain't that bad, but Boumsong certainley is.
June 4, 200619 yr He had a good first half to the season but he went out of form. Not good enough to play for France IMO. Both of them. Flamini could get in their defence I should think. :D
June 4, 200619 yr Chimbonda is over-rated but I think he was one of the best right-backs in the Premiership last season though.
June 5, 200619 yr I thought Chimbonda was a surprise and done well last season but I still don't know how he managed to get in the Premiership team of the season <_<
