Fletcher wrote I'd have to agree with Designs in the sense that, as far as quality goes, and the prospect for domestic trophies, and perhaps even European in the next few years, Chelsea have the upper hand over PSG for sure. The only thing I can see would be a benefit for Pogba to go to PSG is that he'd be playing in his home country. However, seeing as his last two clubs have been United and Juve, and he has played in Manchester most of his life, I don't think that'd be enough of a factor for him.


Exactly , Along with the fact that no footballer cares about playing in your home country.

So many players play away from there home country , And every player would move from wherever they are to go to a big club so the "To play in his country" thing doesn't make sense too me.

Trust me, if an athlete can play for a big club in his home country, they will. Sadly, leagues in nations such as Brazil, Belgium, Argentina just aren't big enough for athletes of the caliber of Neymar, Hazard or Messi.

That's why there aren't a lot of British football players abroad, because they're already playing in the biggest/most competitive league.

65% of Premier League players aren't English, why aren't they playing in their own countries?

Because the prem is regarded as the best league in the world, hence why superstars like Pogba originally came here.

I'm saying that if their own respective leagues were bigger, and on a similar level to the EPL, they'd be more inclined to play in their home nations league.

I get what you mean about Pogba, moving to England to receive the best training possible to enhance his sporting abilities.

Or the fact most british players are shit and cant get into teams abroad? xD

Bale the exeption , Who was good and who is at RM.

Who else do we have?

Cause Daniel sturridge is going to get into a good team abroad isnt he?
And Jack wilshire

No there all shit , Thats why there not abroad not because they want to play in there home country and your deluded if you think otherwise.

If players playing here "To play in there home country" werre offered a way to spain i bet almost every single one would take it.

So the original point you made , Being that Pogba would move to PSG in a heartbeat , Is bullshit is now what your saying?

I thought your original argument was that Pogba would be better off at PSG because its his own country's league?

Yes, I agree, that if each national league was on par with every other, then maybe players might be more inclined to play in their own country. But this isn't and will never be the case, as leagues all differ in quality, and always will do.

I'm deluded? Sturridge could easily make it into a foreign team, the same with Wilshere.

Most British players don't want to leave Britain, because they don't want to leave their comfort zone, they wan't to play and live in a country where they can speak the language. It's not the fact that they're not good enough, they just aren't confident enough.

I know this because I had a similar dilemma.

Really? , I cant wait till i can get out of the UK and get out of my comfort zone and explore.

Really x2? Sturridge can easily make it into a foreign team? xD

Reeally x3 Wilshire can make it into a foreign team?

Sturridge is injured more than he plays and wilshire blew all talent he might of once possessed.
