Default Blatter is back: keen to limit foreign quota

Quote:
Blatter wants clubs to be limited to playing a maximum of five non-nationals in their starting XIs to encounrage the development of homegrown talent.

Imposing such a quota would contravene EU employment laws but Blatter says this should be challenged.

The Swiss supremo told the BBC: "Football has never had the courage to go against this practice.

"When you have 11 foreigners in a team, this is not good for the development of football, for the education of young players, and there is a financial aspect, too.

"Workers in Europe can circulate freely but footballers are not workers.

"You cannot consider a footballer like any normal worker because you need 11 to play a match - and they are more artists than workers."
Looks like after years of just throwing stuff into the air they probably been studying laws and realized that by calling them artists they might get around it.

Imagine what this would do to the cost of good English footballers?

not sure why they need to take it this far. Why not apply the quota rules from the Champions League to domestic competition?

Ok, it would mean clubs having to name a genuine squad for their domestic competition, but is that really so much of an issue if you allow them to include as many homegrown players above the 25/30 named?

I'd be more then happy to see clubs start using a quota. Obviously it has to be gradually introduced but I'm in favour.

Yes, bring back the silky skills of Andy Sinton and Brian Marwood.

The way I'd go is to increase the English leagues to 7 subs, make it that two of them have to be 19 or under and you need 5 English players in the squad of 18.

I don’t like the idea of putting the limitations on the XI or match-day squad as it forces managers into unnatural choices
