been saying for a while that british players should head over to the continent and experience playing in a different league. Was Ramsey influenced by Bale's stay in Madrid, despite him not learning the language that well.. Did a new lifestyle appeal?
Think it's really exciting that young and not so young british/english footballers are chancing their arms abroad, from loan deals to signing long term contracts.
Would like to do more of them doing it.
Pity its happening just as the UK is on the cusp of isolating itself from the rest of europe.
