If you had to pick your Top 5 Premier League foreign imports, who would make your list? That’s the question Jeff puts to former Arsenal, Middlesbrough, Aston Villa and Portsmouth favourite Paul Merson in this week’s episode.
Which one of his top 5 did Merse originally think was a waste of money? Who was so good that they looked like an adult playing against children? And which player on his list is he grateful to for getting him off the front pages of the newspapers?
Bergkamp, Ronaldo, Salah and De Bruyne are just some of the names that crop up, but do they make the final five?
If you haven’t already, check out our previous episode with Paul Merson where he discussed his greatest mavericks:
