"Then I would like to ask, on such a stage that represents the highest level in the world and gathers the most outstanding stars from all regions of the world, with nearly 40% of the British people, is this considered a failure?"

Gao Shen's words immediately silenced everyone in the room.

Brian Kidd and Marwood were also lost in thought.

is not that right?

If we only regard the Premier League as the British Premier League, then only 40% of the British people are British, which is indeed a small number.

But if we regard the Premier League as the world's Premier League, then 40% of the English people are British. Isn't that small?

That’s a lot, okay?

Behind Gao Shen, people in the FA headquarters building, including Chairman Burton, Bernstein and others, were secretly spying on the situation outside. They all heard Gao Shen's words and fell into deep thought.

Is the Premier League the UK’s Premier League or the world’s Premier League?

"Mr. Gao!"

After more than ten seconds of silence, a reporter raised his hand to ask a question.

"I have to say that your perspective is very novel, but I would like to ask, if it is true as you said, the Premier League, as the world's number one league, has brought together the world's elites, with nearly 40% of the British people, then why do you choose from these 40% of the elites?

Why is it that the national team, which is composed of elites, has such poor results?”

"Good question, this is a good question!" Gao Shen pointed at the reporter and praised.

His compliment made the other party feel a little embarrassed and waved their hands repeatedly.

"That's right. Logically speaking, the national team composed of these elites should be very strong, but why can't they always achieve results?"

Gao Shen shook his head, "I'm not the head coach of the national team, so I can't give an answer, but what I want to say is that part of the reason must be that the league is too tired, so in the past many years, some people have been calling for the cancellation of a certain item.

Cup competition, because the Premier League is the only league among the four major leagues that has two domestic cup competitions, and it plays many more games than other leagues."

But this motion is always rejected because the fans are not happy and the Football Association is not happy either.

"There is also part of the reason. I think it is because, in fact, there were not so many British players who could play in the Premier League, but because of the rules and various terms, they had to appear in these 40%.

On the list?”

"If so, does that mean that our Premier League and our British players are not as strong as everyone imagined? Because looking at European football, we find that many Spaniards go to play abroad.

Many Italians and Germans also go abroad to play football, but it is rare to see British players playing abroad."

"Why is this?"

"I think that sometimes, we need to lower our noble heads, seriously look at and admit the gaps and shortcomings, and find out where the problems lie before we can solve them."

"So I think the problem that British football is facing now is not precisely because there are too many foreign players, but because there are too few foreign players and there is no more full competition. More high-level players and coaches should be introduced to further improve the British

The level of football and youth training.”
