    With the World Cup coming up and all here's a question.

    What is the breakdown by "international player status" of all the premiership team members?

    For instance how many Premiership players are qualified to play for France etc

    I never expected it to be so diverse. Thanks for that Pigman II.

    BTW I sent off an email with the same question to 4thegame and got back a reply saying that they doing a statistic on how many players in the WC play in Britain. A different slant, but interesting.
