It is scandalous that there is only a handful of Asian professional footballers playing in the Premier League.

There is so much talent within the community and fooball is the main sport in all of the neighbourhoods.

I think excuses about culture are no longer valid. This may have been the case twenty years ago but now many parents themselves were born and bred here and will support their children if they want a career in football.

Why is it everytime the issue of Asians in football we are told at how culture and religion play a part in not enough Asians making it as profesional footballers.
