Welsh Players who could make Team GB in the 2012 Olympics 1

There is a lot聽reported in media around the formation associated with a The united kindom and Northern Ireland Olympic football team for any 2012 Summer Olympics that is hosted inside london. There were mixed reports out of the Home Nations Football Associations with the English FA proclaiming that they may be "incredibly positive" there will certainly be a fully inclusive squad. In reaction to the present statement the Scottish FA have announced to find out nothing that they do if Scottish players like to play for his or her team but they also, being an independent body will not support the formation of an Team GB. Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland have similar opinions on the matter so with this thought I've had phone players from each home nations who have had Premier League experience. First up is Wales... 聽 Appearances in Brackets 聽 Ian Rush (176) Mark Hughes (297) Robbie Savage (346) Craig Bellamy聽(245) Gareth Bale (77 - current) Gary Speed (535) John Hartson (155) Neville Southall (208) Chris Coleman (101) Mark Crossley (204) Simon Davies (297 - current) Ryan Giggs (573 - current) Vinnie Jones (184) Mark Pembridge (229) Dean Saunders (196) Aaron Ramsay (34) 聽 Now if you appear as of this list one can find only聽2 players that are still currently playing that would or can get selected in a unified British team (keep in mind that the squad is made up of players younger than 23 except 3 overage players) - these are generally obviously Giggs and Bale. 聽 In recent times, from 1992, there are a little couple players who potentially could have been included for any squad, namely Rush, Hughes, Speed and Giggs. You may argue so for your likes of Bellamy or Hartston but within prime of their total careers there would have already been excessive competition from English players (Owen, Heskey, Crouch, Defoe, Vassell etc) in order that it could have been highly unlikely how they could have been selected. 聽 As we think about the last Welsh squad sega's assembled to your Home Nations Tournament in May there have been only 6 players who had been playing for Premier League teams at that moment. What you previously Wayne Hennessey, Boaz Myhill, Danny Collins, James Collins, Andy King and Aaron Ramsay (Gareth Bale was injured so was therefore not included inside of the squad). 聽 So in summary, there'd just be potentially 2 Welsh players who'd have the Team GB squad. These are definitely Bale and Ramsay - both Under 23 and both fantastic prospects during the Premiership. We stay at home anticipation to determine if they could be selected.
