In the Coventry match we had 5 Germans on the pitch: Per Podolski Zelalem Gnabry Ozil We could be playing with 6 Germans in the team soon if Draxler comes in, out with French contingent and in with the Germans and Spaniards
In out first team squad, according to arsenal.com: 6 French 5 Germans 5 English 3 Spanish 2 Polish 1 Welsh 1 Italian 1 Danish 1 Japanese 1 Belgian 1 Ghanaian 1 Czech 1 South Korean Probably the most diverse squad in the premier league.
Sagna, Kos, Flamini, Giroud...any other regular first choice French players? Definitely a big German feel to the team right now. Arteta, Cazorla, Monreal are the Spaniards Gibbs, Theo, Wilshere, Ramsey, Ox leading the way for the Brits. And a few Germans in there too.
I assume Wengers thinking is that it worked for Barcelona so why cant it work for Arsenal* *have a team made up of players from the best national team around.
