Are you aware the first two don't play anymore?
There's also Saha.

It has nothing to do with the French players. Top of the league is Man Utd and yes they have Saha but their best players are not French. Rooney Ronaldo Scholes and Neville are the best players. Bolton cannot score goals since Monsieur "Moan" joined them. Aston Villa are doing well this season and without any French players in the team. Of course there are some very talented French players in the Premiership but they are not the reason for the Premiership being the best in Europe.

i think u are a little bit baiased cos u cant say it is only because of the french intake that is why the premiership is the best in europe but the french players add a different style of football to the english game if not why isnt the french league the best and most popular.

France is known for exporting talent. England is a favourite destination because it's just across the Channel and there won't be many problems if they're homesick. They can just take the high-speed train home!
Many Frenchies at Arsenal purely because of Wenger.

I've gotta say yes as I support the Gooners, lots of French guys in that team, Still Arsenal have always had a good mix of nationalities in the team, 15 or so years quite a number of the team were Irish.

Don't forget petit, Malbranque, Robert, Barthez....And Ribery could be coming if you believe the reports linking him to Arsenal.
France has a lot of good players and its natural to see them in all leagues. Micoud was excellent for W. Bremen, and Thurman and Dacourt were excellent in Italy for instance.

EPL is one of the best in eroupe and there's also Spainish La Liga. But I would think that EPL is the best as I enjoyed EPL more than other leagues.
