Mantis Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Thought it'd be interesting to work out how many and which nations have been represented at Villa over the years. The only requirement is that they must have made at least 1 senior appearance for us. Anyway, I'll start the list but I'm probably forgetting a fair few England Scotland Wales Northern Ireland Ireland France Belgium Spain Portugal Italy Norway Sweden Denmark Finland Iceland Serbia (Yugoslavia no longer exists) Bulgaria Morocco Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia no longer exists) Austria Germany Netherlands Croatia Turkey Israel Cameroon Ghana Togo Senegal Australia United States of America Colombia Trinidad and Tobago Jamaica Ecuador Peru Am I missing any?

ForfarVillan Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I'd like to see us scout the oriental countries. I watch the J-League quite a lot as Im a huge lover of japanese culture, lots of great players in the league. I remember us being linked with Honda a couple of years ago but nothing happened. From my memory we have never had an oriental player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
