Quotas restricting the number of foreign players in the Premier League cannot be ruled out, the FA's new chairman has exclusively told Sky News.
Lord Triesman, who is worried about the future of the national side, insisted "something has to be done" about the opportunities for English-born players.
And the former foreign office minister has pledged to act with "urgency".
The peer has spoken out in a week when four English clubs have qualified for the quarter finals of the Champions League - but largely with foreign players.
It also comes against the backdrop of the England team failing to qualify for this summer's European Championships.
so my local newspaper was saying tht they've restricted it to 6 foreign players per club...umm ALLL of our players are foreign(bar theo walcott)....if this rule gets passed arsenal will be screwed... who will wenger keep?
