Sacked Sunderland chief scout Pop Robson says he fears Newcastle and Sunderland will bring in a flood of foreign imports at the expense of homegrown players.

The striker, who won the Fairs Cup with Newcastle back in 1969, says the English national team will suffer if the Premier League is swamped by foreigners.Bryan Pop Robson: “I fear it might happen that Sunderland will concentrate solely on the overseas market.“They might go for cheaper options, younger players, European players, Croatians, Italians – but they still have to be good enough to play in the Premier League, which is pretty demanding.“But you read where probably Norwich is the only team in the Premier League that is fielding enough of a percentage of English players, and I feel that’s a sad situation“It’s a worry to me in the English game. I don’t know where the development is going to come from.“The Premier League has spent a lot of money on academies but we need to keep working on it.”

WE TELL IT AS IT IS - NO BULLSHIT!
