Guaranteed English Starters in each Team

How many English (England only) Players in your Team are dead cert guaranteed starters when fit at the moment
(Feel free to correct me)

Strange how Arsenal look like the worst in this list

Arsenal - 1 - Ox/Walcott (I almost put 0 here)
Chelsea - 2 - Terry, Cahill
ManUtd - 3 - Rooney,Smalling,Shaw
Everton - 4 - Baines,Jags,Barry,Barkley
Leicester - 4 - Drinkwater,Vardy,Albrighton,Simpson
Liverpool - 4 - Clyne,Henderson,Sturridge,Lallana/Milner
ManCity - 2 - Sterling,Stones
Spurs - 5 - Walker,Rose,Kane,Alli,Dier
Southampton - 3 - Forster,Bertrand,Redmond
Stoke - 2 - Butland,Shawcross
Swansea - 2 - Naughton,Routledge
WestHam - 4 - Cresswell,Noble,Carroll,Antonio

Are these numbers not a bit disappointing?

Henderson shouldn't be for us, he's been awful.

English players are generally rubbish, overrated and overpaid.

When players like Stones and Sterling cost around £50m each and aren't as good as say Huth for £3m (ok not as a footballer but as a centre half and a defender) and Mahrez for €350k, then it's no wonder why there are so few English players in each team.

English players are well overpriced and overrated.

It's pitiful number. But to be expected when buying success is the way clubs compete these days.

English players simply aren't that good! That's what it boils down to. If the talent was there then I'm sure people would pay for them. In terms of bringing in youth through the academy, I couldn't care less if they're English or not tbh
