So going forward, how does this work again?
do European players have to have working visas? is there a limit to the no of foreigners (ie Europeans) that will be allowed?
is this why all these mediocre English players are suddenly worth a fortune? eg Walker, Drinkwater, Evans-should i get my gran to start kicking a football? etc.
will Brexit work against any particular clubs? ie those with few or no English players
how is this gonna work? will we have to have visas for European games? etc etc
has the PL done a position paper on this?

Much will depend on future work permit regulations, and subsequent negotiations between the FA and the PL. Both have completely opposite needs.

Let Theresa May take over from old baldy Levy and do the buying for Pochettino.
He tells May wot to buy,... and she gets them the right Commonwealth pissport so they can come in and work like any other member of the Great British Empire.
Am I wrong about this?
I mean....Levy
Masey May couldn't possibly be worse as chairperson -could she?

I imagine the biggest sea change will be academies are not allowed to be filled with foreign youngsters pilfered from poorer (financially) leagues.
Which is a good thing.

A huge criticism in football is Chelsea's policy of stockpiling young European talent, and loaning them out en-masse, to simply sell them for a profit later.
They would be one of the biggest losers here.

It is also very likely lower league clubs will find it much harder to recruit international (non-playing) staff due to more stringent work permit regulations.

Hopefully we look at the ridiculous homegrown rule.
Eric Dier not homegrown, despite being an England international with two English parents, but Cesc Fabregas is
Farcical

Homegrown rule was pretty easy to circumnavigate until clubs started getting punished for poaching youths which I think is ridiculous.
