Ha i got most of it right on first attempt. I thought Bergkamp along with old heads like Keown, Van Bronchorst (spell check), Edu had already left Barcelona by 2005, that's why i didn't pick them. But it was off the head ha..

Gilberto Silva in one sub?

Well there was a 3 letter one and I had no idea who else had played for Arsenal who's name was only 3 letters

Senderos? Only other non-English player I can think of playing for Arsenal at that time.

Alright, continuing the theme from the last question...

Which was the LAST Premier League team to field an all-English starting XI?

 

[Bevab]

Manchester United FC?

 

[JBlues08]

Nope.

 

[thedon5]

Bolton?

 

[P Squared]

Aston Villa?

 

[Auwais]

I know Middlesbrough fielded an XI on the last day of 2006/07 with almost all players being from either the academy or from a close radius of the city but I don't think that's the answer.

 

[Ollie_H]

Chelsea or West Ham.

Ha, have no idea - but i get the feeling that such a team didn't play during the 2000s era - but rather during the early premiership days during the 90s.
