Sir Trevor Brooking has once again highlighted the issue of
imported players ruining Englands international chances.

Sir Trevor thinks this means Englands chances of winning any
international tournament are getting less and less.
But is he right? Let's look at the evidence. When Sir Trevor played
there were just a handful of foreign players in England yet our
international team was one of the worst ever.
