The FA’s feeling is that England need to move with the times and after failing so dismally in their last few tournaments, culminating in the embarrassment of Roy Hodgson’s team going out of Euro 2016 to Iceland, to start giving themselves the best possible chance of winning something – even if it means potentially having someone in the squad who cannot properly speak the language.
They've had someone like that in the team for years - Rooney
When I am king, you will be first against the wall

Where's this quote from?
Completely wrong.
It looks like a quote from an article in the Guardian but doesn't seem to be attributed to anyone.
Allardyce is behind the change in attitude while acknowledging it is a “very delicate subject”, with the new England manager pushing for a more open-minded approach, in a similar way to Kevin Pietersen initially breaking into the England cricket team on the back of a four-year qualifying period with Nottinghamshire.

Forgetting the fact that KP has English blood
So if he ever needed a blood transfusion, he merely seeks another Englander's to engage in?

That would be preferable but as your body replaces the blood cells on it's own, even if you were given a foreigners blood it would only matter for a few weeks.

Wow, that's probably the worst England squad I have ever seen. Not saying that it's not the best squad they could pick, just lacks any world class quality.
The success of the EPL seems to have been at the expense of the local players, will probably grind out the results needed to qualify, be overhyped, get a weak group and go home early
Of course we could follow the example of north of the border and the SPL and be embarrassingly shite at everything
Doesn't make any sense,
1) You have 10 times the population
2) The SPL is a small league, not the market leader
3) Our media would never say (not since Ally McLeod) that we will win the world cup
The main difference between Scotland and England is

So in effect, blood has no nationality.
How so?
People have blood types. A person from Chile can have same blood type as someone born in Greenland, yet his neighbour, born in same town has another blood type. Then again, you knew that.

The blame for the messy system of international qualification belongs to FIFA. However other countries do it, why not England?

But the Chilean has Chilean blood and the greenlandian has greenlandian blood. I have English blood, you have polish blood.

We know were cabernet
Makes as much sense as believing that playing in the biggest league in the world with the best players in the world would somehow be detrimental. Such an excuse would be a cop out, with the right direction those players are good enough to be competitive against anyone
Jumping the gun a bit to say that the squad, half of whom are barely in their twenties aren’t any good. If John Stones was Juan Piedras from Barca or Deli Ali was Belgian the pundits would be creaming themselves about how great they’re gonna be.
Be interested to see a quote from any credible English media source (not the Sun) saying the England football team would win a world cup

I have blood type 0
If ever I need a transfusion, I wont ask what nationality the donor was as I know it wont make any difference.
Does "English" blood act differently in its function to the lungs/heart etc to anyone elses?

No, it won't make a difference. However, doesn't change the fact that you have polish blood and I have English blood.

My blood cells would probably talk with a more pronounced cockney accent than I do.
Mine keep telling me to slow down on the drinking, silly fuckers, and not in any particular language, so I like to annoy them on purpose, especially Friday nights.

It must be a particular language for you to understand them
