LondonEnglandFans October

The panel features

Virtually no team at this summer's World Cup didn't include at least a handful of players who ply their trade in England. Some would say this is a credit to just how cosmopolitan our league is. Others fear that too many foreign players have contributed to the continuing disappointment that the England team has become.

Perhaps its time we looked to other countries not just to import their players from but to hear their views of how we play and organise our game?

So, in celebration of the 2010 Kick it Out Week of Action LondonEnglandFans have brought together a panel of foreign writers on English football to discuss their views of our game. Speakers include

Marcela Mora y Araujo specialises in South American and Argentinian football. She translated Diego Maradona's autobiography, El Diego, into English, and provided the expertise for the BBC World Cup Stories - Argentina programme, which won the RTS Sport Documentary of the year award for 2006.

Philippe Auclair has been a correspondent for France Football for over a decade. He is also Radio Monte Carlo's main match commentator and English football analyst. A bestselling author in his native France his book Cantona was published last year.

Henning Hoff is UK correspondent for German News Agency, DPA
