Spain are Liverpool

Don't know if anyone realised this but.

We've got 5 players in the Spain squad.

Valencia, Villarreal and Barcelona each have 3 and Real Madrid have 2.

What do you expect? we have a spanish manager
like Arsenal have lotsa frenchmen and chelsea portuguese

but hey, the spanish players are really good!

What do you expect?

Probably Barcelona or Real Madrid to have more players representing their national side would be what people would normally expect.

Well like if the 5 we have weren't as good as they are they wouldn't be playing for us.
I don't think it's all to do with the way Rafa is from Spain.

Would have been more had Villa and Silva have jumped a flight to John Lennon!

Quite amazing though. We're the modern day Arsenal. Only not with French players!

I think Aragonés kept an eye on Rafa's Spanish players, and I think their new coach will do the same with the usual four - and Riera & Pacheco too.

Riera was called up. So that makes 5 liverpool players in Spain's squad while we only have one player in England! Used to have more when Crouchie,Carragher and Carson were there.

To be honest though, only one starts and Nando usually under performs when Villa is there.

Yeah, they are european champion

Alonso gets a bit of a look in. And we shall see if Reira gets the nod.

Personally, I'll be glad when they're all back 'home' safe.

My sentiments exactly Ken, I'm happy for them to be called up but always nervous in case they get injured

I think it is a huge benefit to have a lot of same language players, It creates less cliques and more team comraderee.  You can see it in the way the team plays, celebrates, and gets along.  They have also mentioned the mood in the locker room is at an all time high.  I think the large groups of friends (spain internationals) and english speakers has a lot to do with that!

who care's deep in the heart of liverpool stand Gerrard and Carra, not just english but liverpudlian. Nough Said.

Indeed.

They can all speak English.

they may be from different countries, but you can see the unity when the celebrate

And they all know they are privelaged to be playing for this club which is vital. All the Spaniards know about us and our history which definately helps too.

On their arrival, every one of them have said how much we are loved over there and the respect we get.

They may come from all over the place and talk dead funny but they play dead great

Remember we had Luis Garcia, Antonio Nunez, Fernando Morientes and Josemi too I would Daniel Pacheco play tho

I am going to watch Estonia vs Spain I am from Estonia ,but i hope Torres and Spain win this game.Liverpool passion.

yeah I hope xabi scores a hat trick from his own half.

Liverpool will become like Spain.Soon Rafa will put together a team that will play like Spain.

Liverpool will become |Spain.Soon Rafa will put together a team that will majoritis
the best.

I think Rafa only picks players who he thinks are good, not because they're Spanish. :

were all off to sunny speke, e'viva eh speko
