No it didn't continue working - but does that mean the concept is wrong?
In the 2006 World Cup there were 80 players who were with Premier League clubs - 21 were in the England squad.
We can only discuss 'what if' in the context of the thread & my opinion can't be 'proven', but I would still rather the Premier League restricted the number of foreign players & allowed more English ones the chance to develop.
- otherwise we just have to 'agree to disagree'
