a bloody good question though
seeing all the money sloshing about the premier league it would be expected to see a litany of big names that were seduced by the riches on offer but, it seems a pretty shortlist of "superstars" enticed over at the peak of their game. suggests that the prem league hent all that.
thank f**k we're out of it
