Arsenal's Clichy: Quotas won't help England

Arsenal's French fullback Gael Clichy says introducing foreign quotas to the Premiership won't benefit the England team.

"The nationality is not the main important thing, it is just the quality you want your team to play," Clichy told Arsenal TV Online. "The boss [Arsene Wenger] has made something great here, the way we like to entertain people, and I am sure that it doesn't matter for him.

"If you have to see about a player if they are English, French or Spanish, if he has the quality he will be in his team, and if not he won't be in his team. Let the manager do the job.

"I think everyone is proud to say they play in the best league in the world because with all the players here and the English players we are making something good."
