Everybody talks about the number of foreign players in the EPL and I was quite interested when i found this information (all stats correct on 29/1/08) So here's a few questions: 1) Which EPL team has had the highest percentage of its goals scored by English players this season? 2) ...and the team with the lowest? 3) English players have scored 32% of the EPL goals this season (197). Which nations make up the rest of the top 8 in percentage of goals? 4) Players of how many different nationalities have scored in the EPL this season? (This is a tough one so if nobody has it in a few days I'll reveal the answer )
I guess Villa might have had the highest anglobhor and barry get a fair few goals. and maybe arsenal or pompey for lowest??? As for nationalities I'm not gonna even hazard a guess
Ireland (the country and the player..) , Togo, Nigeria, Netherlands, France for top 8 nations. Liverpool for highest number of english goals. Stevie alone should cover that.
Arsenal are bottom, with English goalscorers scoring 0% of their total. Which nations make up the rest of the top 8 in percentage of goals? 2 France 3 Ireland 4 Nigeria 5 Spain 6 Portugal 7 Scotland 8 Togo 9Netherlands
I forgot to finish this off... West Ham are the team with the best English goals rate - 80%. And Question 4's answer is 50 different nationalities. Not many people guessed this but I think Needs More Rope was closest with 57 so well done
