It is 20 years since the last all English starting XI was fielded in the Premier League by Aston Villa
It has been 20 years since a fully English starting XI was named in the Premier League.Then Aston Villa manager John Gregory named a line-up of 11 English players against Coventry on February 27, 1999.No side has managed to do that since.John Gregory was the last manager to name an all-English starting XI3

The line-up consisted of Michael Oakes, Steve Watson, Gareth Southgate, Dion Dublin, Simon Grayson, Ricardo Scimeca, Alan Wright, Lee Hendrie, Paul Merson, Ian Taylor and Julian Joachim.The three substitutes used, Mark Draper, Gareth Barry and Stan Collymore, were also English.Coventry went on to win the match 4-1 with braces from Dutchman George Boateng and Australian John Aloisi.Gareth Southgate was a member of that Aston Villa team3

That Villa starting XI was the 55th time an all English team had been named in the Premier League.They have done so the most in the leagues history with 19 times.The other teams to do so are Arsenal (5), Coventry (4), Leeds (1), Leicester (3), Newcastle (14), Norwich (1), Oldham (3), Sheffield Wednesday (2), Southampton (1) and Tottenham (2).There has never been a Premier League match in which all 22 players in the starting XI of both sides were English the most is 21, when QPR faced Newcastle in January 1994. The only non-Englishman was QPR goalkeeper Tony Roberts; a Welshman.The last Premier League season in which an entirely English starting XI was named (1998/99) was the first season in which the percentage of English players used in the Premier League dropped below 50 per cent to 48.2 per cent.Julian Joachim playing for Aston Villa3

The first time a Premier League starting XI contained no English players was against Aston Villa at Villa Park in October 1999, 238 days after Villas game with Coventry.Norwegian manager Egil Olsens Wimbledon side featured three Jamaicans, two Scotsmen, two Welshmen and one apiece of players from Guyana, Iceland, Norway and the Republic of Ireland. Arsenal have named the most Premier League line-ups with no Englishmen (173), followed by Wigan Athletic (42) and Chelsea (30).Manchester United have only done this once in their 2-0 win in the Manchester derby in May 2009, with Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes coming off the bench.

Dele Alli is one of the best wind-up merchants playing at the moment and this was in full flow during Tottenham’s Carabao Cup victory over north London neighbours Arsenal in December. Spurs were 2-0 up and cruising at the Emirates Stadium when an Arsenal fan threw a plastic bottle at Alli’s head. The England international turned round and reminded the home fans of the scoreline with his fingers and given Spurs went on to win the game, Alli had the last laugh.
