Forestieri? No thanks ... A few days ago Leicester former England champion clashed in the Carabao Cup (the new English League Cup) against a team that holds a particular record. Looking at the rose of the Sheffield United, South Yorkshire team who plays in the second division of England, there is the presence of "only british-irish" players. A rarity that distinguishes the blades (so nicknamed by the coat-of-arms coat of arms), unique in the first three British series, not to lay even a stranger: a true antithesis of what is happening in today's football. Sheffield is champion of League One. Parade for downtown streets, but to Chris Chris Wilder slipping the cup, as happened to Sergio Ramos.
WE'RE GOING UP - Starting with number 1, Simon Moore, the 90th class goalkeeper (though the owner is Blackman), to Billy Sharp, captain capable of achieving 51 goals in the last two seasons in white jersey, he meets a long list of only British players. Stearman, Brayford and the same Sharp leader are the only ones to exceed the one million euros in terms of value. Their nationality? English. And next to them there are 13 other national players, plus two Northern Irish (Lafferty and Lavery), two Scottish (Fleck and Coutts), two Welsh (Evans and Freeman) and two Irishmen (Stevens and Carruthers). It is a matter of tradition, heartfelt, without forgetting that anyway this team has been able a few months to triumph in Football League One, the third set of English football, cracking the 33,000 of Bramall Lane. In short: to rearrange a machine that works maybe there is really no need. Captain Billy Sharp laughed after the goal at Barnsley. In each of the last two seasons he has scored 20 goals. Action Images Captain Billy Sharp laughed after the goal at Barnsley. In each of the last two seasons he has scored 20 goals.
A modus operandi of the genus activates the balloon synapses and inevitably leads to the Basque tradition of the Athletic Club (in the broader concept that also includes Navarre and French Basque countries). The same mesh colors, same habits. The Spanish club has for years been carrying out its own battle that clearly contrasts with what is being witnessed in this last summer market session. A still romantic, pure membership and, above all, sustainable (the zurhurri are the only ones with Barcelona and Real Madrid to never be relegated to the Liga). Okay, in Bilbao there is the best known case, but in Championship this season there is someone who wants to emulate the Spanish action. In the summer of 222 million euros spent for Neymar, 180 for Mbappè and 160 for Coutinho, Sheffield United is a homemade model able to inspire the most nostalgic fans. Nearly 12 years after the Premier League match with 11 full-time foreigners (on February 14, 2005, and Wenger for the Crystal Palace challenge), Chris Wilder's men (yes, also Englishman, Stockbridge for accuracy) are the last British bastion of an extinct kick: they will try to replicate themselves in the Championship after a brilliant start for maybe, who knows, to bring another English fairy tale to the magnificent stage of the Premier League ...
