Hall of Famer
a young welsh who was on the olympic U-23 GB team, joe allen, was bought by liverpool:

i never saw him play, but i'm very happy that liverpool still managed to sign a young promising player that happens to be born in england (or wales) and also white
people will say that the price might be too high (15 millions) compared with other talented players often from other countries but that's because they don't get that a local player will always be more expansive because talented local players are less likely to exist so are more rare (GB has a population of 60 millions, and there are 7 billions of non-british people in the world)
liverpool could lose one of their central defenders:

at one point you will have to sell one of them, but with sebastian coates ready to play it won't hurt the team
everybody want them because liverpool was one of the best teams in europe defensively last season:

(the coach mentions that he has great fullbacks and a great goalkeeper in addition to great central defenders but i don't agree: glen johnson is perfect because he's the token black player of the team, playing in an unimportant position, but the spanish left back was annoying last season - well glen johson was annoying too when he though that he was ronaldinho but i prefer this than having a black striker or central defender
and the spanish goalkeeper pepe reina cost us a lot of important points last season - yet the coach calls him the best goalkeeper in the premier league
there used to be a lot of scandinavian goalkeepers in english premier league, because scandinavia has awesome goalkeepers, why not look there?
the goalkeeper of denmark during the euro 2012 plays in french ligue 1, in a very small club not far from where i live, evian-thonon-gaillard: this is a club that played in second division 2 years ago
sweden's goalkeeper at the euro 2012 isaksson plays in turkey
these scandinavian goalkeepers need to come back to premier league)
